I Live Alone

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered “Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future...

Lived alone over 21 years now and do not see an end in being alone

I've lived alone now for over five years.  I've learned to deal with it, but I don't like it.  Last summer my two older sisters, both widows, came to stay with me for about a month.  I knew I really enjoyed them being here and I sure...

I so long to live alone again. Currently, I live with my nieces and mom and their dogs on a huge plot (10 acres)... .I love it out here... but I long for privacy to live my life, to go on dates and not have to worry about who's home...

I'm not afraid of loneliness. I take care of myself. Most of the time. I have friends. I live my life. Even if I'm in love, I don't want to be invaded. It takes me lots of time to accept someone in my personal space. Then I'm not all...

Since 2007 I have been living all alone...before that i have never lived on my own! I lived at home with my family until i went to university...while there i shared a house with 7 men (that was fun - it was like having 7 older brothers...

I have lived alone for almost twelve years now and haven't liked it. I feel incredibly lonely and don't like coming back to an empty house when I come home. I have no family to move in with, so unless I meet someone special I will...

When I was a girl, I wanted to grow up to live alone in a cabin in the woods with lots of cats. Then puberty hit and I took a 30-year side trip to marriage and children. Now the children are grown and I'm finally living alone...

I have been living away from the nest for over 7 years now. Like many others, I moved to the big city to go to University. I can tell you now that since I've been away from the parents I have moved a grand total of 7 times- sometimes...

Well when you are getting a divorce and you move out there are not to many choices.  I guess I could have moved back home with Mom, but that would have been a hour and a half commute to work or maybe my sister, but again it would...

I'm not under any pressure and can live the way I want. I'm very lucky at 24 to have my own flat (inherited some money actually) - most of my friends are sharing with friends and can't see when they will have their own place.
I'm quite...

That is what my mother said to me last weekend. Before that a girlfriend asked ... why don't you come home, don't you need anyone? Then the other day a lady asked me.. how do you do all this living by yourself.
Well, got to read my...

I'm the only child in my little family... and my family is my mom. She really loves me : cooks for me, helps to overcome all kind of difficulties. However, her personal life hasn't progressed since dad left us and I feel like an...

I have more or less lived alone for the past 6 years. Post divorce I went through a natural period of mourning and worrying about loneliness. I tried a new love but we wanted different things in the end so 'alone' became permanent. All...

Around age 16, I started dreaming of having my own place.  But in the years to follow, I realized what a tall order that really is... at least for a guy with an associates in art from a community college.  Heheh.
It...
