I have a friend who worries when am on leave. Not because she misses me, rather for a trivial reason. She cannot eat on her own! Okay, I'll be nice to her. I'll rewrite this in a nicer way.
She needs a company at lunch. This doesn't mean she cannot eat alone, but she finds it boring to lunch by herself. She needs someone who can keep her company till she finishes her food. If she cannot find anyone, she'll change her lunch timing so that nobody can spot her eating alone!
My take on this is why can't you eat alone? Shop alone? Watch movie alone? I absolutely do not mean that you should not have a company. It's a blessing to have someone sharing space and time with you, but what if you can't have one? Wouldn't you look for alternatives?
Befriend yourself. You have a lot of capacity to handle yourself. You can mind yourself in a much better way than anybody else. You can amuse yourself in the best possible way than you can ever imagine. How come? Probably, we know ourselves more than anybody else. Our inner self knows what we want. There will not be any communication gap when you start talking to yourself. It's not about keeping yourself busy. It's about telling yourself that there are way more things to do. It's all about time, about getting used to it.
Difficult in the beginning, manageable by end!
What do i do when she is not around? Newspaper keeps me company!
