Why do you want to exclude friends and family from your happiness? Or, is it that you just don't have many friends or family in your life? Being happy is something that everyone deserves, regardless of their circumstances. It may be harder with or without certain relationships, but it's important to value yourself and the fact that you deserve fulfillment and happiness regardless of who is or isn't in your life.

Being happy can be tough. However, spending time with yourself can be an awesome experience. Some people call it dating yourself and lots of times those people are happy. Find what works best for you and go for it.

Friends and family are immensely important. However, a substantial credit for their indispensability in our lives goes to the way we are raised. The desire for family and friends is inculcated, and it's not innate. We need to realise it. Yes having friend and family make us feel secure, but at the end of the day, if we think deeply, we all need to fend for ourselves.

It is important to be able to love yourself and be secure enough to able to separate yourself from others when you need it. Sometimes, I find it relaxing to just be on my own, with my own thoughts. And if I need to talk about it after, I will.

You don’t need other people to make you happy. You can make yourself happy, be happy on your own. Sure people can also make you happy but it’s not very healthy to completely rely your happiness from other people.
