    On the other hand, I now have free time I would have otherwise not planned for.

    So I can think of what ambitious thing I want to do or learn, spend the day deciding on it, and then “maybe tomorrow” it for 5 years until I finally forget.
    Over 3 years ago at some point I decided to learn C++ and Japanese (I had free time). I’d still kinda like to, at least C++, the human language to learn has changed, but I don’t quite have time today, so maybe tomorrow. (Not made up)

      Exactly, now i have time that instead of being spent nurturing a friendship is just lost to my own inability to do stuff…and because i kind of want to do something but can’t get my self to do it, I end up hating the idle alone time instead. If it’s planned alone time I love it.
