So this comes off the back of covid I think, although I was a homebody before. Aibu to want to spend most of my time at home or somewhere quiet with my DH and DD. I have worked at home since covid started and this is now permanent. I have noticed that although I don’t have social anxiety in any way, and I can be very sociable if I need to be, when it’s my choice, I just want to stay at home. I don’t like going to places where loads of people are and would be happy if I didn’t have to see anyone else! Aibu? Is this normal?!

As a counterpoint - I got like this on one of my mat leaves, and while it suited my introvert self nicely at the time, looking back it made me a bit weird and insular and I don’t think it did me much good.

For me it's odd, I would love an open view office where I can see the hustle and bustle of people when e.g. Look out the window, but then focus on the tasks need completing, e.g. Like an office in an airport or, an office at a large docks, ect, but with a large overview of the whole complex as much as possible.

When it comes to socialising, when needed I'm there, and other times I have projects to achieve, or study for.
