I'm bored with people who are BORED!
First, if you can't be happy when you are alone, you can't be happy in a crowd. There are so many things, most are productive and satisfying in some way, that we can do when we are alone that being "bored" is not an option unless you choose it.
I can sympathize with the "same ol', same ol'" syndrome but the other option of not being able to do the "same ol', same ol'" makes it seem like something good to do. When you see the remarkable physical achievements of some of our returning veterans who've lost body parts, you should feel good just looking at your arms and legs.
You can be bored only if you rely on someone else entirely for your happiness. If you don't like being on a "one on one" with yourself, it's time for a makeover. You should be your best friend. The next time you are bored, I suggest you have a conversation with yourself--but not out loud!
