..I just want to be alone and process my life, the choices I’ve made so far, and reassess, and plan the future. But I am seemingly surrounded by people who want to take me out, talk about menial things, hang out, go to parties, talk endlessly about the banalities of their lives etc. I’m finding all this exhausting and like a big waste of time. I can’t be present with them and as a result I am bad company. I’m sure it’s a matter of context and that if I were in a different frame of mind I’d not be criticising them. What do I do to create some space for myself without offending them?

..that will also earn me Velocity points for my shopping, petrol, and other personal expenses? No/low fee if possible
