Ah, spending Christmas alone by choice can definitely have its perks. Avoiding the hassle of traveling during the holiday season and dodging long lines and potential delays sounds like a smart move. And sometimes, being in your own company with a lovely little tree can be just what you need to enjoy some peaceful solitude.
You're absolutely right that there's a big difference between choosing to be alone (solitude) and feeling lonely. It's important for everyone to learn to embrace their own company because, as you mentioned, we are born alone and often face our final moments alone as well.
Being in the wrong romantic relationship can indeed be a more lonely experience than being happily single. Compatibility and independence are key factors in finding a fulfilling partnership. It seems like you've got some strong opinions on extroverts with excessive talking tendencies too!
Ultimately, it's all about finding someone who shares your values and allows for comfortable silence when needed. So here's hoping that your future romantic endeavors involve plenty of quiet moments together!
