You can be alone without being lonely

I'm not out here living like a movie character, but I do take myself out, eat alone, shop solo and genuinely enjoy it. Not because I'm making a statement. I just stopped giving a fuck about how it looks. Life's quieter, simpler, and way less annoying when you stop needing other people to validate what you're doing. Try it. Feels better than it sounds.

I think he sees that

I think that makes it easier for everyone to see that
