How long?
Before I was married, I commonly spent a good amount of time alone. Usually, the most time I could manage (due to work or school) was a weekend with no contact at all, but even if I had time off, like a week, typically I would end up going to a store for fresh food at some point, and so I would see people there and not be able to claim literally no human contact.
Now I am only alone for some time if my wife goes out of town on business, which does not happen much. I prefer being with my wife, but I am fine being alone.
