Can it be satisfactory for a normal human?

Are you recently divorced or what? I think it can definitely be done! My Mom does it...I know her case isn't the norm; she has been celibate for 18 years! She is a workaholic, though! I really don't feel that kind of life is right for everyone...it wouldn't work for all. Some people need a close relationship. My Mom has lots of friends and some pets that keep her busy...she fills fulfilled by this; but that may not be right for everyone. Good luck...!

I think that everyone who is single gets lonely sometimes. But, if you have had enough bad experiences with people ( or maybe with just one person), sometimes it feels better to have some alone time. I think that you can be alone and be content, you just need something to occupy your time, like an interest or hobby, even though it sounds cheesy. It always helps to have your friends and family there for you as well. My husband passed away awhile back, and at first it was very hard for me to get up each day- but I knew I had to! I have a 5-year old son who needed me to take care of him. I know that death and divorce are not necessarily the same thing, but they both hurt, and they both leave you alone. My main point is, that even though I miss my husband very much, I am starting to realize that I still have the rest of my life ahead of me- you need to realize this too. No matter how impossible it seems, the hurt does start to fade. I'm not sure what your experience was, but don't let it get you down too much. There is always a chance for happiness no matter what! This means alone or with someone by your side. If you have been hurt, don't give up! Not everybody is like that, so keep your chin up, think positive( I swear that really helps), and you will get through it!

Mom is cared for. Visit one to two times a month. Dad needs friends and may already have a busy life but tells you to visit more often so you know he loves you. If not find the local senior center and introduce him. Marry that good man so you can quit calling him "partner". He has put you and your parents ahead of his own interests for long enough. Ditch the guilt and become a good wife.

Yes, Love isnt everything in life no matter how many people make it look like it is. Life is what you make it, dedicate your time to something else that you like a lot like a career. I once told a friend of mine to adopt a kid just to raise him by himself without a partner because kids are wonderful and that way he wont be lonely.

It sure is lonely. Why not have a pet, a cat to start with. It is not a person but at least she'll meow you when you're back from work.

I've been just as lonely with a partner as I've been without.

i think you can as long as you keep yourself busy and surround yourself with things that will make you happy. Whether focusing on family, being involved in the community or church, or focusing on your career. Also, having good friends and family will help you along the way.

yes...but, it depends on the personality type. Some people enjoy being by themselves...especially if you have been hurt by a spouse. (ie cheated on and then divorced)

Depends on what it meant to you in the first place, and how willing you are to bend.
