I have always been an introvert, in many ways a loner in that even when I go out I often prefer to do things like shop or art galleries on my own. I am pretty quiet and a bit of a homebody. I did spend my 20's working in a creative industry which was interesting and involved a lot of travel but hectic and I packed it in because I was fed up working with people and being away from home all the time.
I'm still a creative but work from home now, alone! I do like to go out to the theatre, cinema, comedy shows and music concerts if something on appeals to me, I like a nice meal out and I do still enjoy travel and am currently planning a trip to Japan. I do love being at home though with my husband. I love to make my home cosy, to cook nice food, movie nights and games nights often just the two of us. I like to knit and make things, do jigsaws, I love read and play the piano, do a bit of yoga or hike with my DH. I was never into partying and can't remember the last time I touched alcohol, it must be at least 10 years or more and I never drank much to begin with.
I am content with my life at 34 but I know some people do consider me boring because I don't go out for big nights out or because knitting or jigsaws seem like "old lady" things to do. I suppose a lot of it is perhaps down to me not drinking. I personally find a night with a good book, my knitting or playing chess with DH far more entertaining and fun than a night down the pub but people aren't shy in letting me know how dull it sounds to them.
So if you are like me an introvert, quiet or a homebody do people assume or think your life is dull and does it bother you?
