I am a weird introvert and difficult to get along with once you have entered my personal space. I like being alone a lot. Even in a crowd I will isolate myself. "Hey! Are you listening!" is a common phrase I hear. I would not consider this a tendency towards monasticism. Being an introverted book worm is more accurate. I am now divorced and nearing 60. If I do consider another relationship I think another bookworm would be right up my alley.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
