In the absence of that, I am happy to play solo, but I don't think there is any comparison.
It's never occurred to me to worry about my health, or that I'll get old, or that people will stop laughing at me.
As a child, I had to get up early for school or work. I'd get ready by myself. I'd set my alarm to wake me up very early in the morning, and be off to work, the family driver driving me every morning. I did it alone, my parents never coming in to wake me up.
