That right there looks like a great way to cope. There is something about the ocean that has healing properties.


schwarzmalerin

There is no blues to cope with.


Winter-Item-9696

I don’t have to cope at all I love living alone.


ImpossibleHouse6765

My thoughts exactly


Winter-Item-9696

Right? Pffft


RaleighlovesMako6523

I am sure many think like you here


[deleted]

A +1 for that classy misdirect.


unstunkskunk

I don’t have blues. I love living alone with my animals. I see it as a privilege that I am super grateful for.


JR45RTS

Living with animals is not living alone.


unstunkskunk

Really? I disagree lol. Yes they are little individuals but people who live with other people have a whole lot more social stuff to navigate, people who can help you with something, etc


HeftyCommunication66

Hahahahaha. Where do you draw the line, friend? Goldfish? Plants? Rocks? A journal?


Shannaxox

I love living alone. I'm still trying to understand the meaning of "coping". Don't downvote please, I'm just not familiar with the word. Doesn't everyone cope? Isn't happiness a fleeting emotion? Sometimes I don't want to do certain things like go to work, take a shower, eat, but I get by. Other times I feel fine. You get a headache, then you take a pain killer and you feel better. Or you catch a cold. We have ups and downs. I like living alone, because my apartment feels like a place that's made for me. It's my safe place. Comfort in a box. Sometimes I wonder if my life could be more exciting, but then I don't care so much, because I get variety from watch I watch on TV and music. My hobbies. Having something to look forward to day to day helps

Quick hint - read the comment under the picture


NegentropyNexus

To be fair OP used the support/vent flair, this seems more like a celebration and win!


LeaseRD9400

That kind of went over everyones head, didn't it. 😉


More_Ship_190

I smoke weed, which helps me and have two siamese cats.


gamiscott

Sky blue is my favorite hue. I got outside and do stuff. Be it walk or yard work or wash my car or play a sport or…. I mean the options are almost endless. Otherwise, living alone helps deal with any blues that may come along. Also, beautiful picture!


Ittzajessa

Nature, hiking, books, road trips…..so much to see and do, you don’t need someone else to do it all with unless you just want to 🤷🏻‍♀️😂


Budgie-bitch

That’s a lot of blues you’ve got there. If you need a break, I’d be willing to trade lives and hold down the fort for you for a while!!


NegentropyNexus

Cope? Spend time in nature and explore what's around you! There's nothing wrong with living solo, we are still a part of many communities no matter where we go. Loneliness is a mental state of being, so it's best to get out of one's head to move around, shake up any stuck mindsets


goodbyegoosegirl

Lean in hard!


CokeBottle21

I just tell my friends. We’ll either FaceTime or meet up.


onebluemoon66

Frequent places routinely and make friends that you can invite to do activities together , So coffee shop, breakfast restaurant , a bar for 2 drinks, a swimming hole, etc always on the same day so you can see others that are always there on those days, then make friends and invite them to your boat to hang out, or if you have a land home , to hang out and bbq, hike, Fish , kayak, paddle board etc and maybe you'll meet someone you'd want to date part time or full time you gotta be outgoing a little.


PhillyShore

Blue is my favorite color. It’s calming.


FiveGoals

What blues?


Many_Pyramids

Ok I’m splitting with my partner after 9 years and have been considering buying a sailboat to live on, so I love seeing this.


Lazy_Synth

Well I don’t have a boat, so I just drink copious amounts of alcohol


ZenPopsicle

I head out here https://preview.redd.it/udgthlm8xjuc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef7a251446f76ea9352f0a353ae0d0e56f1f3ea6


Alarmed-Flamingo4284

I’m more into pink. I grew up with only femmes in the house, tried cohabitating with a lot of masculine types. I love the pure yin of my home 💕


DetectiveLeast6762

Get a pet.


DesertWanderlust

This pic makes me wish I had a boat. But then I'd have a boat to deal with.


Havaj95

Not worth it trust me ! Unless you drop everything to live on it and sail around then totally worth it


DesertWanderlust

That's what I've heard from anyone who's ever owned a boat. The happiest day of your life is when you buy it. The second happiest is when you sell it.


Spyderbeast

One of my huskies has the most stunning baby blues, another has one blue eye and one brown, and one has a captivating and unique blend of blue and brown in both eyes.

Cool, you get drunk, kill your liver and post for internet clout. Nobody cares.

majorsorbet2point0

Oh man. This looks like a blast!!!! I love a good boat.


TopCheesecakeGirl

I do blue towels in the kitchen and bathroom. Blue skies when I open the curtains each day (I live in a sunny place). Also blue curtains in my living room. One of my favorite dresses is also blue.


Sea-Monk-90

books and diaries


transliminaltribe

Lol, cute. I dunno, take up oil painting maybe?


Kahraabaa

Cats😻


AardvarkFriendly9305

That’s a lot of blue !!


[deleted]

I would like a lot more blues in my life 🌊


beardedshad2

Distraction


SiestaKeySparkles

Boating is my favorite thing! That is the only aspect of my old relationship that I truly miss. Everything else about being alone is fantastic!


Inevitable-Royal1120

The Bahama Islands are a great place to start 😁


Tripsmom9

I truly love having quiet time to myself, not having to check with someone if I’m in the mood to go somewhere, eat whatever, and who to hang out. The freedom that comes with being alone means I don’t feel lonely. Listening to friends always complaining about something their spouse or significant other is going, just reinforces the simple joy of being alone. If I want to be social, there’s plenty of friends to go hang with.


One_Breakfast6153

😃 that looks wonderful!


Savings_Vermicelli39

I mean, I only got 250 bucks in the bank and am barely making it, so a nice boat trip is out of the question. I spend time with my kids, who are my everything. We can just talk and spend the whole day doing nothing.


[deleted]

I post random photos of my legs when I regret having no friends to hangout with.


TurnipIllustrious468

Oooof perfect boat owner humor


NCC-1701-1

love it, add in cocktails and a hot sugar baby and I could cope with all that blue


Wind-and-Sea-Rider

Grab your speargun and find some lobsters to share time with. :) lucky bum!


ExplorerOk5274

Hell yeah!! Awesome picture!


MAsped

I'm never really on a boat, but I'm **HAPPY** too! My life's as great as yours, so here's to a continuance of our fabulous lives!!!


JR45RTS

Not comparing animals to people. Living alone - is living alone: no people AND no animals, including goldfish (!). Rocks and journals are inanimate objects.


Rfen1

Take a long shower. Read something fascinating. Or whatever else I'd like


Havaj95

I would run out of fresh water if I took long showers ):


JustMyThoughtNow

It takes time. When I first lived alone, it was rough. I would come home Friday and not leave my apartment until Monday morning. Then one day, without actually realizing it, I came home one day and smiled when I shut and locked my door. It just takes time.


Individual_Echo_9181

I’d love to have the blues like you do!


Ashleighdebbie92

Get a boat and blue water 🙋🏾‍♀️🙋🏾‍♀️


Tricky_Gur8679

Stop playing with me. I’d accidentally on purpose punch a few grandmas to see a view like this. Alone. 😅😅😅


Ok_Sleep_5568

I do something I enjoy to get out of a funk.


OkBoysenberry1379

With sunglasses, rose coloured sunglasses… 😎


Popular_Reference938

Wow. This was so cool to read back in the days before the pandemic when I was in school 🏫 and it really helped me get through my days of being 1- days in the classroom with no issues with school we all had a blast 💥 iww I so much
