Or, to be more specific, who will be spending tonight on their own? Doesn't have to be a bad thing - you might be happy about it - but if you'd like some virtual company this evening, come and say hello.

Yup. Just deciding what tattoo to get next and listening to some metal.

A meet didn't go ahead and an unusual social. Not the best day.

I actually need a fair bit of alone time too so I totally get this. Have you enjoyed it?

Errr… is it ok if I don’t answer that OP? Because it’s not really appropriate for me to say I’m enjoying myself at the min. Thanks x

Alone, if we are counting human adults, but not lonely. Reflective.

I'm alone every night at the moment because...

a) I'm incredibly fussy about who I meet, and

b) I'm in the final 6 months of my Open Uni BA and if I let anything distract me I just know I'll f**k it up

Thanks Glyn. A part time degree usually takes 6 years. This is my 10th year lol. Life - work, family, health etc just kept getting in the bloody way. But thankfully I'm on the home run now

Reflection is very important and often easier alone.

Level 1 was broad-based ancient Greek and Roman history. Level 2 - Homer's Iliad & Odyssey, Aeschylus' Persians & Aristophanes' Lysistrata plus Athens and the age of Pericles. Level 2 Roman was everything about Republican society. Final year was a choice between Roman Empire or Classical Mythology. I chose the latter and studied Ovid's Metamorphoses in depth. I absolutely loved it. Highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in it

Ah yes, the very talented man who wrote Pericles' speeches but, in my opinion, seemed very good at embellishing the truth

I'm watching a 70s ghost story called The Ferryman (part of a series called Haunted). It stars Jeremy Brett as a writer who has a big success with a novel about a Ferryman taking ghostly revenge. To his annoyance people assume he believes in ghosts, but when he and his wife find themselves stranded at an Inn containing a number of unlikeky similarities to his book, he has to reconsider...

Yeah, I did my final dissertation on myths by Roman poet Ovid, of which so many are relatable to real life historic events and have inspired writers and artists for centuries. So, I wrote about how Renaissance artist Sandro Botticelli was inspired by Ovid's work to create the painting La Primavera, which is my favourite painting in Florence Uffizi Gallery

I live alone and so am by myself most nights.

I generally enjoy living alone, only occasionally does it get lonely.

I just climbed into bed and that always feels like a lonely time. Not in a sexual way, but laying alone in bed just feels quite lonely.

Yeah I'm the same - mostly happy on my own but there are times a bed feels cold and empty when you're the only one in it.
