Back

Okay there goes my short hiatus.

Apparently, loneliness is contagious.

"The average person experiences loneliness about 48 days a year, but having a lonely friend can add 17 days of loneliness annually. By comparison, every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about 5 percent, which translates to about two and a half fewer lonely days a year, the study showed."

So... that would explain why I'm sad most of the time. Of course it's not like I didn't already know why I'm sad in the first place. But is loneliness contagious? That could be said for happiness too, I learned firsthand that smiles are contagious. Eh I don't really believe in this research.
