I'd be concerned. I'd have to verify that I was truly the only living person; send messages on radio, television, internet & any other communications media I could operate; travel about, seeking possible others; find a way to deal with 7.7B bodies, probably leaving them scattered in certain areas so that wild beasts could be satisfied to eat them instead of me. I'd be too busy for sadness, & likely too full of my natural optimism to believe that I was the only one. I'd hope to find others, especially women, so that together we might try to create offspring to take over after we inevitably died.

If it happened right now
1. Be shocked for a bit but generally still in denial about it
2. "Celebrate" no one being around to enforce covid restrictions and drive around a bit, go to the city, walk around some gardens, still generally in denial that there really isn't anyone else around
3. Drive home alone and begin to gradually unwind from the "high" of being out and about
4. Get home and start stressing and freaking out about the situation
5. See what works vs what doesn't (if haven't already) in regards to tv, internet, electricity, water, gas, etc, etc
6. If utilities are down spend the rest of the night before bed wondering how the heck i can get them back online
----probably repeat for a few days....don't think i'd be comfortable raiding any supermarkets until a few days i was convinced i was alone lol

I'd probably be just about as lonely as I am now

I'd hate it. Choosing to be alone and forced to be alone are very different things.

I live a pretty reclusive lifestyle as it is so I suppose I'd manage OK without going mad. I love animals so they'd keep me company. I have no family to miss and I'm not a people person.

I could take comfort in the fact that I'd be hanging out with my favorite person in the whole world....ME.
No, not true. I would miss my S.O. terribly. She's pretty much my reason to be.
