seems that the wonderful basic wisdom of the old songs said it all, living alone or living in a group, love is the answer, someone to love is the answer, who do you love?........

The only problem with living alone is its always my turn to wash dishes

its better to be alone than being with someone who makes you feel alone......

I was married for 27 years and have lived on my own for the last 20 years. Had a few short relationships but they finished for one reason or another. No girl friend now for 10 years.

I don't mind my own company but I often think it would be nice to have a compatible lady by my side. I get a bit sick of the loneliness at times as I live in a small country town and only have one friend here. Closest family is nearly 300km's away.

I think as people get older they think twice about bring someone into their life.

But I'm open to finding a partner again. I've been on dating sites for years and I've come to the conclusion that because of where I live and being an aged pensioner I'm NOT what women want.

I live alone and have no contact at all with my brothers. we have nothing in common.

I live alone, and I have a sister that wishes that I didn't exist. On the plus side, I have no idea where she may be, nor do I want to know.

The best part of living alone...is peace and quiet, no drama, do what you want when you want etc etc etc

Ther's over seven and a half billion people alive in the world today, It' strange to think we can still feel alone. people are far to xenophobic. Say hi to a stranger every day:)

And don't forget to smile :)

wonderful advice about smiling.

I don't mind living alone... I just don't like being alone... at least not all the time..
It gets boring... trying to keep me entertained..lol

As more of an introvert, living alone gives me the opportunity to process the events and emotions of the day and reset. Which I think would still be possible if I was coming home to someone I was deeply/spiritually connected to. But if it's just one of these random girlfriends, after that first 4-6 months or so, wow, it can be rough.

i always do that...:)

yes, inform your face.... I don't see a smile, you will look better that way too

I second this ^^^

Don't talk the talk if you don't walk the walk

For some people


One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
Two can be as bad as one
It's the loneliest number since the number one

That would make a great lyric for a song.

Again Good Luck With That

So true , being in a toxic relationship , can just intensify lonliness

Yes alone for 2 years now and it's like starting all over again.i do get lonely and what i do is go on dating sites to chat,like travel mates dating.It's nice to chat with the ladies and pass some time.
