Sometimes the right person shows up when you're not looking.

No one needs a life partner to feel fulfilled, productive and happy.
Granted for some they couldn't phantom otherwise.
But really each individual make their own happiness.
Look around and I'm sure you can find many things that bring you joy every day.
Leave your door open (did you fix that door bell yet?) and someone may enter your life one day, if that's what you really wish for.
For now the bright side is, you're free as a bird to do as you please. :D

Sudsy - gotta have a lotto tix to win!
Take heart Quietone, I have really young single women friends who have given up the dating scene ( I need to rethink having young beautiful friends)
I think I'm one and done.. I enjoy my friends without the hassle of having to have some one come on over expecting me to cook and entertain him
I feel Men are faster to latch on to another woman when one leaves for whatever reason as they don't like to be alone
I LOVE my alone time.
Easy peasy to get sex if I want so why commit?
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive

My mom says being single is awesome. She says that hitting menopause was the greatest thing to ever happen to her because she has zero interest in men, romantically speaking, and just wants to live alone. Her best friend is a German guy who is the same age as me (which is early 40s), and they do a lot of things together like hiking and having big arguments about politics.

She is hiking partners with her German friend because she can out-hike almost all 40 year olds at age 75. She thinks nothing of going on 20km hikes in the alpine. We went with her last summer for a 10km hike in the alpine and my teenage kids thought they were going to die... mostly from the mosquitoes. LOL

...
But I know that I'm open
And I know that I'm free
And I'll always let hope in
Wherever I'll be
And if I go blind I'll still find my way.

I guess I just felt like
Giving up today
The adventure continues...

No good story ever started with; "So i stayed home."

Instead of Friends With Benefits (FWB) you need Fishingbuddies With Benefits!
