i don't understand the desire to run away and live on one's own away from people. i want to live among many different types of people, who will all feed me delicious things. i would be absolutely miserable in an isolated place.
@skinnylatte Do you consider yourself to be introverted or extroverted? Introverts often crave time outs to recharge, and this is more feasible if there can be some geographic or architectural separation. It doesn't necessarily require being in a remote location. It's often just easier if it is.
@mrw3 i am extremely introverted and autistic but I have always lived in big cities and find density and people comforting. Just because there are lots of people doesn’t mean I have to interact with them. It just makes sense for my brain. I am energized by diversity and different cultures and people
@skinnylatte I'm introverted and neurotypical but need outdoor, natural settings to recharge, reset and maintain my grounding. I do best if I live remotely and then actively seek people and culture when I'm ready.
