The problem with being very comfortable being alone is that there’s not actually a lot of opportunity for it once you have a family, then it’s quite stifling and builds frustration over time.
I guess like everything, healthy moderation is needed. But when you’re truly comfortable being alone for long periods of time it’s like opium- and I don’t mean that in a sardonic way; it’s addictive, peaceful, free and makes you start to resent lack of control.

I try to work out my priorities in time and 'am able to clearly communicate with my spouse and children that I need some time out to think/sort/do stuff. Luckily it works most of the time.
