Shadowings you sound very much like me. I do want to do things my way and as an introvert need time alone, but my fear is having too much time alone. The place I am hoping to get into is a 2 bedroom with a laundry hook-up. My ideal place in a town I recently drove through and liked. Close to job opportunities and services.
I went upstairs to work on my songs, I got an hour alone mom came up sat in the room started chatting, playing with the dog. Then went into her office nearby. Normally she would just stay downstairs but she follows me. It annoys me because I don't get time alone, barely even sleep time. She walks in on me. I don't get space and I'm feeling it today.
