(42,568 posts)in how many people have completely lost their sh** during all of this. On a scale of 1-10, Im probably an 8.5 introvert. It will be nice to get back to restaurants and movie theaters when its safe to do so, but as long as we can order food to go or have it delivered and stream movies at home, were fine. We dont have kids, my immediate family all passed away a few years ago, hubbys family is in another country, so we dont have anyone we need to take care of or see on a regular basis. Ive been grateful for that since March 2020.
But if your life consisted of lots of going out to restaurants, clubs, movies, social events or church events, family get togethers, attending sporting events, going to your kids events and travel to visit friends and relatives, I can see that all of that coming to a screeching halt and having to stay at home would feel like being caged. Like you, I can understand it academically, but I cant really feel it. And maybe being told to wear a mask when they do go anywhere is the straw that sends them completely over the edge. It seems like such a trivial thing to me to wear a mask. A trivial inconvenience that can save your life.
