I am 60 years old. I don’t expect any friends or relatives in my home now. Many people close to me think I am overly arrogant, but frankly, I don’t care about other people’s opinions.
The biggest reason why I stopped having guests is my laziness. Hosting really wore me out. After all, not only did I have to put everything in order, but also to prepare treats. Now I have neither the means nor the desire to do it. You can meet at a cafe and have a coffee. Why is it necessary to call me to your place?
The second reason is negative energy. Not all guests come to you with a clean soul. Why do I need other people’s troubles and troubles? After each guest reception, I felt broken and depressed. I didn’t want to sacrifice my comfort anymore. Ever since I stopped opening the door to my house, nightmares and insomnia have left me.
Other than that, I’m retired and bored at home. I want to go out, visit new places and get distracted somehow. What’s the point of fussing and dragging everyone to your place? They’ll leave later and you’ll have to clean up and worry about whether you welcomed guests well or poorly.
Our city is full of places to have fun. In today’s world, there’s no need to meet friends and celebrate holidays in four walls. Yes, and I want to enjoy the process, and I do not want to run all day with a broom and stick at the stove.
Now my home is my little world. There are no people there that I don’t need. You might say I’m just an inhospitable sociopath, but that’s a misconception.
Do you host or are you close to my position?
