Active children, talkative spouse, and entertaining relatives, yet you just sit quietly, enjoying your electronic devices, and going about your business with little to say. There are no suggestions to do anything interesting or fun coming from you. You rarely volunteer to do anything outside of your comfort zone like attend a kid-related activity or go out on a date with your spouse.
Sooner or later people around you are going to grow weary with all your excuse-making about "...wanting to be alone" and "...not really being in the mood to go anywhere."
Sometimes people have their share of the blues, personality issues, illnesses, and more, but when this isn't the case with you, you might as well do some things differently. There are loved ones counting on you! But what if you don't believe you are the least bit boring, then shall we put your self assessment to the test?
1. Are you often doing the same thing each day and get irritated when your way is interrupted/changed?
2. Do you find that most of your relatives and friends leave you out of activities because they know you will be unwilling to participate? Have they even commented, "You're boring?"
3. At times, do you feel like you could be doing other things to appease your relatives, but prefer not to just because?
4. Is your idea of a good time is seated on your rear watching or playing an electronic device for hours?
5. Are you at a loss for words when someone is trying to converse with you?
6. Do you find yourself frequently making excuses not to hang out with your family members?
If so, just know that this sort of behavior is not going to be excusable as a spouse and children get older. Save yourself from the headaches and the issues that will arise as a result of not being active or interested in your family members lives, take an interest and who knows, you just might enjoy yourself!
Keep in mind, life is too short. Think of those who have many regrets because they just didn't bother to take up any time with the ones they love.
