The thing with living alone is after a time you get used to it and see others as an interuption in youre me time. Having said that friends can be fun for short visits

I’ve lived alone since 2013. I am happy with the freedom it offers but it is a pain on here as being a single male over 50 seems to reduce chances of connecting. Would be happy to find a single lady to have NSA arrangement to include club visits without is moving in. Open to offers!!

So far in my life I’ve lived with my parents, flat mates, my ex, and myself. Out of them I far prefer being on my Tod. I enjoy my own company, and the freedom and peace that living alone brings. I guess it depends on your personality though.

The way the world is at the moment I feel lonely - but I still wouldn't want anyone in MY space.

I was 44yrs old before I lived alone for the first time.

It's amazing and I'll never live with anyone again.

Company for meals out & travelling is nice, but it’s good to have your own space where you can get away from the chaos of the outside world.

I love living alone. Having someone in my space full time would drive me bonkers and me them too I expect.

Probably sounds quite selfish, but that’s just how I’m wired , I don’t require constant company and can even find it a bit overwhelming.

Coming home to an empty house, not having to make polite conversation, can have a bath, not have a bath, run out of food and live on cornflakes for a day, nobody pestering for sex when I am not in the mood, total control of the remote control, no compromises, nobody telling me I shouldn't do this or shouldn't have said that......pure freedom of choice.

I was married for a long time, I felt he was my soulmate. It ended very amicably, but I feel so much more an individual since I lived alone.

I think if you're lucky enough to have met your soul mate - then living with them feels right.

I've only lived with the wrong ones.

I'm embracing doing what I want.

It feels beautiful- I have always lived on eggshells in the past.

I still tiptoe around - afraid to make noise.

Then I remember I'm free

I have lived alone, except for my daughter, since I left my husband 22 years ago. Nothing would ever induce me to co-habit with a man again.

I think it was Charles Dickens who said something about a visitor after 3 days being like fish that had gone off.

We're all adults here. Why should we require someone to hold us to account when we're fully capable of doing that for ourselves? I'm not a project for someone else to improve.

I can honestly say I'm never bored at home, though I can be extremely boring.

I bloody love my own space and couldn't share it now.

Covid has meant that I've felt lonely, but I'm missing someone in my bed and nights out with friends, not having someone constantly there in my space.

Having someone stay the night but go home the following day is the best of all worlds for me - they always get me groomed (Well, as groomed as I get), they always get fresh bedding and clean towels, a clean flat and me in an agreeable, welcoming mood, prepared to go to considerable lengths for their comfort.

They don't have to put up with me greasy haired and bleary eyed, or when I've got a cob on and I'm just being a cow for the sake of it. They never have to follow me into the loo after I've flushed a stinker, or listen to me whine after a bad day in work.

I've been living alone for over 15 years and I think I get lonelier and a little sadder with each passing year.

Day in day out, things are fine but its things like valentine's, birthday, summer holidays, Autumn and Christmas that it kinda gets to me. At 45 I'm a bit fed up of being single but it is what it is.

This past year has made me laugh somewhat though listening to the struggles other people have had about not being able to do anything. Well that's been my life for quite a few years lol.

I do live a boring life and spend far too many hours at work

I split up with my wife about 2 years ago, although we carried on sharing the same house with separate bedrooms. For us this was an easy way to co-parent and as we had an amicable split, it worked for us.

I moved into my own house about 6 months ago and I love living alone. I don't have to live with anyone else's timetable (well, apart from one of my sons when he's here on alternate weeks.)

It's great.
