[quote=Anonymous]So, I'm the adult child in this situation. I'm 49. My parents are 80 and 77. I love them, they love me, we have a great relationship. But they will not stop fretting about me, no matter how many times I tell them that I am mostly happy. They mainly worry that I am single, but they also worry that I won't have enough money. Sure, I'd prefer to be in a good relationship than alone, but I'd rather be single than in a bad relationship, or in a relationship just for the sake of it. As for money, well, there's never enough, but I'll be okay. I know that parents worry about their kids and the worrying never stops. But it saddens me. I hate to think of them at the end of what have been great lives, having raised two overall great kids, and not being at peace because I'm single...when I'm not even unhappy about it. I'm visiting them right now and they brought it up and I just don't know what to say anymore. I'm fine. Truly. [/quote]
