[quote=Anonymous]I'm very OK being single at this point but I'm a a bit older and retired (60)) and have no more plans to seek out another partner.

The things I miss: having a partner to just face down life with in general. Bounce things off of. The feeling that someone has my back in particular.

Things I'm OK with: not having to do chores or keep the house in any particular way to meet someone else's standards. Having as many pets as I want. All the TV and meals and takeout being my choice. Not having to constantly worry about my appearance, weight, makeup, hair. Go to sleep and wake up on my own schedule.

I'll never be cheated on again.

I'm also somewhat relieved at the fact that I'll never have to go through the same shock and wild grief that my married friends went through when their husbands became ill or died suddenly.

If I could have stayed in an intact, supportive marriage I know I would have, I would have spoon-fed that man and wiped him down and cleaned him up until the end, but it didn't work out that way. He's got someone else for that now.

Just didn't work out that way and I can't do anything about it. ¯\_( ͡❛ ͜ʖ ͡❛)_/¯

Life happens. I'm used to being single now and can't picture managing to incorporate another human into my life in that way again. It just seems like way too much work at this point.[/quote]
