Table for One: Learning to Be Alone Without Feeling Lonely

When was the last time you wanted to do something but wished you had someone there to do it with you?
For me, one of those things was dinner.
A table for one. An empty chair across from me. And that slightly uncomfortable feeling that maybe I wasn’t supposed to be there alone.
But somewhere along the way, living abroad began to change my relationship with solitude.
In Story 6 of Stories From Somewhere, I’m talking about learning the difference between being alone and being lonely and what happened when I stopped waiting for someone else before allowing myself to experience my own life.
It started with dinner.
Learning to enjoy my own company didn't mean I stopped wanting friendship, love, community, or people to share my life with.
It simply meant I stopped needing someone beside me before giving myself permission to live.
Maybe independence isn't about never needing anyone.
Maybe it's knowing that when the chair across from you is empty, nothing is necessarily missing.
And maybe “table for one” can sound a little less like loneliness…
and a little more like freedom.
If there's something you've been waiting for someone else to do with you, this story is your invitation to try going anyway.
You might discover you're pretty good company.
Until next time…
I'll meet you somewhere.✨
