Is it weird to spend most weekends entirely alone? (mid-20s)

[Borelis]

Is it weird to spend most weekends entirely alone? (I'm mid-20s) I'd say I spend about 80% of weekends per year fully alone just doing general household chores, shopping by myself, netflix by myself, food shopping, eating, reading the news, cycling alone, etc.

Is that highly unusual or are any of you the same?

I don’t think it’s usual or unusual. It just is.

Do you want to be alone or would you prefer company?

Doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks. Do YOU like your weekends by yourself?

I am 26 and the same. I see my friends every eight weeks-ish. I don't think it's that unusual. I had a great uni experience and did the clubbing scene then.

Now I'm at the awkward age where most of my friends have a boyfriend/fiancee who they want to spend more time with, are saving up for a mortage/wedding or work shifts.

Fairly depressing really.

I was just thinking earlier today that if I didn't have dp, I'd be spending the whole weekend on my own. I'd have to join some clubs!

In my experience totally normal.
Small family, parents moved abroad. Tiring professional job, all friends in similar jobs.

I am now 34 and spend weekends with my baby and husband. A lot can change.

If you're happy with it then that's really all that matters. On the other hand if you're bored or lonely then there's plenty you can do to change things.

Sounds great to me but I love being alone.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I guess I'm not happy with being alone on 80% of weekends but I'd rather that than be with people 100% of weekends.. I know I'd definitely crave alone time in that case (more so than craving people time when alone).

Guess I'm just feeling sorry for myself this weekend especially as I've come down with a horrible fever/cold and basically got stood up for a date (by someone who was supposedly super keen to go on another date, who said he was well up for it the evening before, said he'd got my a pressie for my birthday last week etc.) :/ (the 20% of the weekends I do socialize are almost always parents or "dates")

It’s not weird but I was similar and regret it. I’m 35 and single now and think I didn’t make best use of my weekends in my 20s and hid away.

Are there any hobbies you could get into habit of going to? Or maybe book a few singles weekend trips? I think spending every weekend alone and seemingly in a rut isn’t healthy. Switching things up a bit is probably a good idea and what I wish I had done.

It's a perfectly lovely way to spend your weekends IMO. Used to spend most my weekends like this - and bloody loved it - but a couple of years ago family moved in with me. Mostly it's ok but every now and again I REALLY miss my solitude of old. Even 30 mins with the house to myself these days feels like silent bliss.

I see to think i was the only one who spent weekends alone and was weird for enjoying it that way. I miss them a lot.
