I don’t have to be friends with you

Sometimes I feel people have this sort of entitlement to others people's time and attention. I don't think anyone really owes you a friendship. People shouldn't take things so personal. Someone at work has been bothering me for months because they want a friendship. I used to believe one should always be surrounded by people but as the years have passed I've become to appreciate my solitude. I don't want to be constantly surrounded by tons of people even if they are friends. In some days I'm in the mood but most times I'm honestly too tired to be good company and what I want is just to lay under my bedsheets and just relax. I adore the people I have in my life, but I don't need to be constatnly around them to have our friendship. I think part of the reason why the relationhips I have are so strong has to do with the disance we have allowed ourselves to have. My best friend started to date a recently and has two jobs, all the free time is deditacted to them. But that doesn't mean I'm not there getting ocasional updates and check ups, even if we take days to answers. We could take months and we will still be there for each other. And I cheerish that. Not everyone that you see alone is actually lonely. People not liking you is normal, everyone has different preferences. If they don't want a freindship it shouldn't be the end of the world.
