artificial insemination kit for humans
These moms are unapologetic about canceling plans and embracing their time at home. One of the perks of parenting is using your kids as a convenient excuse to dodge almost any social obligation. Don’t want to visit Grandma for Easter? Just say, “Oh no, Aidan is feeling under the weather.” Need to avoid a child’s birthday bash? Simply claim, “Oops, the baby is teething, so we can’t make it.”
However, there are mothers who don’t even bother with excuses—they simply refuse to go out and say it straight. Some of us genuinely enjoy being homebodies, and we wear our hermit badge with pride!
“I absolutely love being married to a pilot. Both of us are hermits at heart, which makes our relationship perfect. We enjoy a month of solitude followed by two weeks filled with exciting dates, vacations, and passionate moments. I get peace, silence, and the chance to miss him.”
Confessional #12345678: “If I had financial freedom, I would probably choose to be a hermit living in remote comfort. I just don’t crave constant social interaction, yet here I am, never alone.”
Confessional #12345679: “I’m 57, my kids are grown, and my husband is retired. Since COVID turned my life into a hermit’s routine, I have no desire to leave my house anymore. I’m not agoraphobic or depressed; I’m simply content with my hobbies. Socializing feels overrated.”
Confessional #12345680: “I wish to hermit away from everyone—my husband and kids included. I really don’t like being around ANYONE.”
If you were a homebody before 2020, you might now find yourself fully embracing hermit life. And that’s perfectly fine! Socializing can be draining. While it can feel refreshing and is necessary for maintaining overall health, sometimes we just want to cozy up at home in our comfy pants under a warm blanket.
“I sent my daughter to school for the first time in nearly a year today. She was thrilled, but I’m so anxious. I’ve tried to teach her safety, but I feel like I’ve already failed. COVID has turned me into a hermit, and I’m scared of ruining her happiness.”
Confessional #12345681: “I find adults incredibly disappointing. I just want to hide from them all. My patience has plummeted this year. I now understand why hermits prefer solitude.”
Confessional #12345682: “With the election and the pandemic, so many people have revealed their true colors. My tolerance for others has diminished, so why push it? Deleting all my social media—never done this before. I’m basically already a hermit, and it’s my only social outlet. Either I’ll spend more time outdoors or become comfortable with myself.”
Confessional #12345683: “I’m secretly relieved that my kids are old enough to text their friends, so I don’t have to manage their social lives anymore. If it were up to me, we’d never leave the house. I’m such a hermit!”
Confessional #12345684: “I’m definitely a hermit! I back out of plans and avoid socializing. I worry about how this will affect me as I age. Is this going to mess me up in the future?”
Confessional #12345685: “I just had a baby two weeks ago, and we’ve had visitors non-stop. The hermit in me wants to tell everyone to go away!”
A new baby is a perfect excuse to embrace your inner hermit! Unless they bring a delicious casserole or are willing to clean your house, tell your friends and relatives to buzz off.
“I’ve been feeling lonely while working from home lately and considering going back to a full-time job. I’m in the office this week—and NOPE! I can’t wait to return to my lazy mornings in pajamas, enjoying my quiet home.”
Confessional #12345686: “I love being a homebody! I’ve created a cozy and welcoming home for family and friends. I prefer hosting gatherings at my place rather than going out. I’ll cook and whip up cocktails, but some people judge me negatively, thinking I’m just a hermit.”
Confessional #12345687: “I’m renovating my house, adding nice finishes. Once it’s finished, I’m never leaving again. I’ll be a hermit in a beautiful home.”
Confessional #12345688: “I was forced to socialize last night, and I’m completely drained because of it. Motherhood has turned me into a hermit.”
If you’re a hermit and you’re happy, give yourself a round of applause! It’s refreshing to see so many women who refuse to feel guilty for enjoying their lives at home. Whatever makes you happy is valid. Especially if you’re an introvert who recharges by spending time alone—embrace it!
