very true. solitude isn't always a bad thing.

Solitude is good to a point

true. it's fun being around people irl.

Need to be around people or you'll become disconnected

agree

We have a show hangover, it takes us awhile for us to recover all the energy, we spent performing

omg yes. total mental exhaustion. haven't really figured out how to deal with that part.

Delt with it doing artshows, everyone wants a piece of you

Take, Take, Take all my energy

oof. and then they wonder why artists are often reclusive.

We are creatives, not consumers, and we get consumed

def feels like being the product

If I would do it again, I would use a anon name instead of my real name

It helps when people approach, if they call you by you anon name, you'll instantly know where your relationship starts and ends

That would help alleviate some of the pressure

same. I mean, I kinda tried but also did want to be known. there are some sacrifices that have to be made, I guess.

It's one of the reason I don't like meeting known people because I know they have limited energy to give and I don't want to take anything from them

if there's something they can offer, I'm sure it's not a big deal. sounds like you value connection even if it's hard to connect sometimes. you'd be surprised at how many well-known people can sense that.

Space is the best gift you can give someone

Being around them is enough sometimes

The right person could help, just saying

welllll yeah. can't really take that decision lightly tho.

That's why I said, the right person

I guess it's a bit difficult to define 'the right person' when everybody's got an opinion

Your opinion is only opinion that matters

well, I have an opinion but that doesn't mean it's gonna be a reality. more of a "God's timing" kind of thing. like, if that's the right thing, it'll happen at the right time.

Never a right time

God places people in front of you whether your ready or not,

Be ready and will to follow the prompting

you're right :)

Sometimes

You'll know it's honest and authentic when it's unplanned, clumsy and weird

Because, it was impossible to put into words

It will take you surprise

well that doesn't sound too bad! who doesn't love unforgettable moments like that?

Embarrassing
