Being in quarantine has helped fuel the idea that I’ve developed roots and I don’t want to pull the roots out. That’s what I used to do when I was younger. I would purposefully distance myself from people so that didn’t feel that there was an attachment so I could just up and leave with no problem. So I’ve decided that once the quarantine is over and I’m able to see people, I’m going to get all my close friends, wherever they are, and take each and every one of them on a single one-on-one date. Take them out to dinner and just learn a little more about them. I would pay for it and show my appreciation for them and their friendship and how much that mean to me during quarantine. Having that outlet of stimulation and communication was really important because there were really some bad lows for me.
