Thank God I’m an introvert! I almost never feel lonely. If I see a neighbor and we chat for a few minutes, I’m good for two or three days. Too much exposure to people is so draining! Call me odd, but I’m happy! 😃
I'm the same way. I have a small number of friends I've had practically my whole life and I'm close with a small number of family members. I don't see them that often, but they don't drain me. They are very important to me. I have lived alone for most of my adult life because I have found that I'm happier that way. I was more of a social butterfly when I was really young, but I didn't NEED a lot of people to be happy then either.
#20, Loneliness, is killing me. I've lived off-grid on a mountain for the past 18 years, and my husband left me nine years ago and moved in with his girlfriend. I have no friends, my nearest neighbor is two miles away. I only go to town once a month for supplies, and that's the only time I see another human. I've been very depressed for years. My animals keep me going; I have goats, chickens, cats a dog and a parrot who are my only friends. I'm so grateful for them!
Where do you live, and what made you decide to move to a very isolated location 18 years ago? Just wondering, and could you move somewhere less remote? Maybe getting some friends online might help, and video chat is your friend. Hit me up if you like.
Sounds like my life though I chose it without a husband. Just make acquaintances by participating on activities on the larger community. You'll feel better. If this doesn't, it could be depression over your ex who doesn't deserve you.
4:38 I know it varies from person to person, but for me emotional pain is much worse. I mean, Vicodin kinda helps both, but… lol It’s been proven that people who are more sensitive (kind, caring, etc) feel both types of pain more intensely
I don't remember a 7-year itch, but I do remember a 10-year scratch when I realized I had spent a decade in a relationship and wondering if the next decade would be any better.
4:29 I think when they use a number like 150, they’re counting acquaintances and coworkers; not just people you’re close to and hang out with on a semi regular basis.
I agree, I have 4 good friends and i' ve always taught my kids quality over quantity! How would you even make time for that amount of friends? Put them on a rotation list, write down who you' ve seen when and who' s turn it is now?! Lol
3:12 One of the biggest obstacles to "manned space exploration (intra- or extra-) Solar is the sheer, incomparable vastness of space means an astronaut or crew are so isolated for a very long time. The amazing film The Martian gave a sample with how it took for him to have Earth receive a message then for him to receive the reply. IN 2001: A Space Odyssey, the news broadcast admitted to the necessary editing of their interview with the crewmen b/c of the time for each send and receive to travel! Isolation indeed can play upon one's thinking and mental health. HOW isolated may someone be w/o negative consequences? Pro-tip: Check in on your friends, especially the ones who don't/can't get "out and around" very much; Billy used to post a lot daily and now there's nothing?: GO see Billy (if you can). If you can't [distance/comm-wave] reach him for a LONG time, too bad. If physics ever manages a means of practical/common interstellar travel isolation will only be reduced, not eliminated.

150 friends? No way. 150 acquaintances maybe. Friends, maybe a dozen. To maintain a meaningful relationship takes time and effort. I don’t have that kind of time.
Exactly! I agree, I have 4 good friends and i' ve always taught my kids quality over quantity! How would you even make time for that amount of friends? Put them on a rotation list, write down who you' ve seen when and who' s turn it is now?! Lol
@@Nola5427 I have a niece who has so many friends that when she was pregnant with her first baby they had to have 4 baby showers to squeeze everyone in. The one I attended had 23 people. No idea how she does it.
In a few of his novels, H. G. Wells explored the prison of being royalty. "What?," many would say. You may read Wells' work for yourself but I offer a real world example. When he was 5 years old, Prince Charles' mother, Queen Elizabeth II retuned home from a year long diplomatic global tour. Charles had not seen his mother for a whole YEAR. Upon her return, as she ascended from the the plane, young Charles did not excitedly race forth to hug his mom. NO, the young prince - in his official royal uniform - was only *allowed* to salute the Queen, his *mother*, as was "protocol." Is it any wonder that, given the bizarre rules thrust upon their roles from their youth, if someone thinks, "Well, that's not in touch with common folk." On a few up-notes, Charles-specific: 1) Forget when but I recall a speech Charles was presenting when some whacko [somehow] burst onto the stage, aiming a revolver at Charles! [OK, *bad* security breach but it was when our world could be a bit less paranoid.] It turned out the goof had a mere starter pistol. Who would know that? And as he raced onto the the podium, aiming then pulling its trigger, Charles calmly gazed at him sideways as if thinking, "What do you think you're doing?" :-O Next, I again forget when [late 80s, I'm guessing]: Of course, being a royal, your schedule [and life] is arranged years in advance. On a particular junket, there was a small country Charles was to visit and deliver an address. Though he would [likely] never be to this country again, Charles spent THREE YEARS learning and mastering their language so he could deliver the address in their native tongue!
PRO TIP: If you suffer from trouble falling or staying asleep, don't use your phone or watch television or websurf in the bedroom. If you can't sleep, get up to use any visual media. Keep your sleeping area seperate from entertainment areas.
IDK, people on Facebook or IG seem to be willing to do just about anything to get those “thumbs up” markers. I don’t have a clue how to work IG and have no intention of learning. I start hanging out with people and next thing I know they are off going here, there, lunch, coffee so I don’t worry about it. I’m perfectly fine with my own company. I was at an early doc appointment the other morning. When I came out I saw a Bob Evans nearby and took myself in for some of their excellent Brioche French Toast with fruit. It was yum! The coffee sucked. For some reason places that sell breakfast always have crappy coffee. So irritating! But anyway, just sat there and ate and read a book I had on my phone! It’s more of a hassle making “friends” with someone and then they turn around and pretty much dump you than it is to be by yourself. Pretty bad when they have to bleep out Mike. It makes no sense when you know what’s being said and you fill it in!

You mean Gregor Mendel? He’s the one who studied genetics using peas. It’s fascinating, and I love talking about him because he’s often called the father of genetics. Correct me if I’m wrong, please. 7:46
I have a serious brain injury. These kind of video's help me to realise I'm not the only person. I am alone even though my son is here with me in another room. The brain is a strange thing. Learning more everyday. Great list Mike.
To be clear, an "aggressive dog" isn't limited to the cliche Pitbull, Rottweiler, or German Shepards. I've met puntable dogs that have much more aggression as young adults than these other larger breeds. But gang bangers don't want to be seen walking with a Chihuahua.
That's not why things taste better when someone else makes it. Most of your tastes is from smell, when you're making it, you become "nose blind" to the sent which dulls the taste.
2:12 I think it really depends on the dish. If it’s something I’ve cooked before and know how to make, it’s going to be a lot better, b/c I can customize it to my tastes (eg instead of Kraft singles for a grilled cheese, using mozzarella and provolone or goat cheese and brie - and using a panini press instead of a frying pan). If it’s a steak or something I’m not adept at; if someone else is making it’s probably going to be a lot better.
I have always been an analyzer and then I use to analyze what I analyzed already, it goes nowhere but drives you crazy, I try and stay in the present, not worry and think about past things or the future, sometimes it is easier said than done but you will be way more at Peace.
I’m so happy you are back Mike. It was years ago I would binge list 25 with you and I think some of their names were Tristan, Hope, and sometimes Juan. Please don’t kill me if I got those names wrong. Was so upset when you stopped, then like a week ago I came across a list I didn’t see yet. Thanks Mike for coming back.
When I was younger my parents have always complained about me not being nice enough to other people then as I got older I stopped caring and became less and less friendly, I dont even go out of my way to make new friends. I just go with the flow and let it play out, if its meant to be it will be and if its not meant to be then.........
My dad said the most stressful part of his job was firing people and he owned bars and clubs since forever lol so not all the decades of drunk assholes it was firing people that fucked with him

Yeah I have 4 good friends, I always taught my kids quality over quantity! How can you even have the time to get together with each friend? Start a list and rotate who you' ve seen when?! Lol
I actually like my own cooking better than anyone else's. Im not saying that to make myself seem better. I just know precisely what i want and can prepare my food to 100% meet it. Do i enjoy not having to cook or clean up a meal? Heck yeah! However, usually, I'm better served to make my own food. I overthink, so yeah, thinking gets depressing. At night, i play sudoku to keep my mind from wandering into areas that prevent sleep.
The scientists studying fruit flies said reproduction and traits passed on in fruit flies is so complex as to be an unpredictable factor and when applied to humans, traits and behaviors can’t be determined by genetics alone. I will say that I naturally seasoned my food in the same style as Czech people and did not realize that until I visited there. I am of Czech heritage. Makes me wonder, was I genetically predisposed to the taste and seasonings. (Think hot paprika, goulash, etc)
How many friends can you handle? My thought is 3. I’m very introverted and my own best entertainment. I could thrive being in a lighthouse isolated for a year.
how many times can a person go thru Trama and still be expected to not think too hard on it. Epileptic since 3, mother died a month after I turned 10. girlfriend was murdered in 9th grade than my friend in our senior year, committed suicide Daughter Felica died in 1988. son Tommy died 1990 my husband died he was 52 My sister died last year. and my heart died when my last remaining daughter died on 4/7/2024. she was 46 There is more but will spare you the rest I just think people who write those things is not well acquainted with the reality that for some life is hell.
Oh I am so sorry, it sounds like you had to face alot in life so far, you will never forget and I would say therapy would help some but I know that can be costly. I hope you at least have a few good friends that are there for you.
@@Nola5427 Thank you I do have some close friends and since I live in Mass, and wheelchair bound i have a counselor come every 2 weeks to my home for free. I'm sorry I reacted badly to that part of the video. I am aware that many people have it worse. I think I reacted badly because I am still so raw from Liz's death.
Your mind is not your own, your heart sweats, your body shakes, another list is what it takes, you can' t sleep, you can' t eat, there' s no doubt your in deep, your throat is tight, you can' t breathe another list is what you need, Whoa you like to think that you' re immune to the stuff you seek, it' s closer to the truth to say you can' t get enough, you're addicted to Mike.
