I've changed greatly over the past 6 months. I don't know whether it's for the better, but I've become more independent. Perhaps a harder, stronger person. Maybe more stubborn, and maybe a little more quick to anger.

Last time I used to feel a bit lonely when I didn�t see my closer friends for a while. Now I just feel.. nothing. Somehow I no longer feel the slight ache when I think of them and don't see them. It's like someone took the emotions and severed their links to me.

I don't know what sort of change it is, or what sort of person I'm becoming. I haven�t lost my ability for empathy and sympathy, though, so it's still good, I guess. It's just that some things are starting to matter less to me.

Developing immunity to being lonely?

Maybe I'll end up one of those people who live like hermits.
