It's just that I'm not exactly of party animal type, if you know what I mean; being a somewhat reserved person, tend to more observe than participate, but I'm still there. What with the "angst" of being lonely, I've always known how to fill those solitary spaces; with reading and writing, music, films, art, etc. That has not been so bad.pHinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17688446374412096166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7006097.post-1124709896185273022005-08-22T14:24:00.000+03:002005-08-22T14:24:00.000+03:00I think I can relate, albeit only marginally, to w...I think I can relate, albeit only marginally, to what you are saying. I am quite the opposite, an almost flamboyant extrovert, so there are things in what you say, I can never truly understand.<BR/><BR/>But I have seen that side of the world, academic and otherwise, which you describe here. It is ugly, no doubt about it. I lacked the courage to take the socially unacceptable course which you are following, but there are times I think a little like you here.<BR/><BR/>Being a family man and all, I don't presume to grasp the loneliness part of your <I>angst</I>. I don't know how you picture the future regarding this subject, whether you have settled for the part of a loner or if your process of learning and growing might someday bring you close to some person or even multiple persons. <BR/><BR/>Whatever it is - if any - that have in mind, I hope you achieve it.
