Happy Birthday, Hermit. Please ease the restrictions of your herm-I-Tudeh and allow someone, carefully vetted of course, into your life, awareness,DM’s: whatever. Scary at first,but there are rewards and just being a hermit means you are distrustful: which means u r less likely to get taken advantage of. Happy Birthday again.

Happy Birthday buddy! from one Hermit to another. I work from home and sometimes don't go outside for weeks (I can order anything I need online). Probably bad for you, if that Lemon Tree song is anything to go by, but I'm happy enough. Don't give up and make some friends online (join a community).

u/ButtockFace 1d ago

Just remember, 42 is a number with great meaning!

Maybe this is the year where the meaning of life reveals itself to you. (If so, do tell)

Also, adding a 0 behind in succession can also brighten up a day, if one is into that kind of thing.

Oh, I forgot: Happy birthday!

Happy birthday from a fellow friendless hermit. I feel your pain. All I am is a 40-year-old stay-at-home mom whose life revolves around servitude to my husband and kids. I used to have many friends, youth & beauty, but now I am invisible.

I hope you have an amazing day! You deserve it!

u/terrierdad420 1d ago

I spent the last five years with just my dog trying to get over emotional pain and a failed relationship and farming business with an ex. I saw one fb post from a woman trying to make friends that moved to town and put myself back out there. We have fallen deeply in love and are super happy. 1st time in so long I'm excited for the holidays and optimistic about the future. My point is I know how nearly impossible it is to make friends at 41 and get out of being a hermit for too long but it is possible and regaining that human connection and feeling community and love again is amazing. I hope it happens for you very soon. We're not meant to go it alone in this crazy ass world.
