Friendly Introvert

I am an introvert. I have a highly fulfilling work life, lots of wonderful people to socialize with, who I adore. I love people, don't get me wrong, but when the weekend rolls around, I'm not too keen on hanging out with people. I want to unwind on my own. Maybe in the company of the cats or my boyfriend.
As much as I crave recharging in solitude, I still get lonely. I miss having pen pals. I struggle with anxiety almost every day and partly because of that, I don't always want to open up to people right away. I am also under a lot of stress currently, for a number of reasons. I love my life, but sometimes I just want a friend to talk to.
