You probably don't since you're here. I'm in my mid 20's and I've been living alone on the countryside for a few months now and I love it but it doesn't feel like enough. I want to live completely in the present moment and not be connected to the dominant culture in any way.

1 Probably to leave the internet and get rid of my smartphone.

2 Avoid small talk at work.

I think my closest neighbour is a "ghost". He lives alone, owns some very nice cars and motorcycles but I literally haven't seen him once, only heard him come and go with his vehicles. Either I'm becoming more aware of it or this lifestyle of just cutting yourself off a bit from society is becoming more and more common for men.
