No more someone being mean to you, or treating you like an employee. No more belittling or browbeating. After a while, negative nagging people suck the life from ya… Imagine, no more crap. Just work, pets, kids and the garden... Does this sound peaceful to anyone else out here?

Some of us live that life. It's beautiful, especially with the peace of mind that comes with it.

I guess your past relationships haven't been that good, so in your case the answer might be yes. Life is about balance in relationships. Some people are needy and some independent. The trick is to find the right balance with those relationships so you can be the person you are, have time to yourself, and time to share of yourself with others. If and when you find that balance, you will have all of your needs met in life, but won't truly be alone. That will be the most peaceful your life could be and if you can get there, you would be a fool to pass up such an opportunity just so you could be alone to avoid being hurt in relationships.

Statistically men who are married live longer than men who are single.
Statistically women who are married Don't live longer than women who are single (whether divorced, widowed, or never married).
What does that tell you? That maybe, women away give too much.
But there are a percentage of woman that marriage works for them. And who's to say that can't be you? Take some time for yourself and interest, but consider getting into some therapy. Maybe you're just picking the wrong type of man for you and could use some insight to make a better choice.
Yes, it does sound peaceful. But don't give up on having a loving, supportive, mate just yet! After all the 'frogs', Mr. Right could be next...

Well I do have a somewhat significant other but I don't live with him...don't WANT to live with him and will never marry again...but yes I enjoy having my own life...always had. I did not like being married. I was on my own for 10 years before I married and after 10 years of marriage wanted out. Been on my own for almost 10 years again and will never do the marriage thing again.

Although I am single, I can't go along without a partner. With no one to talk with is the loneliest situation a person could be. try not talking with someone for 1 week, you become anxious, for a month, depress, for a year, maybe dying. No man is an island.

It sounds great to me although I can see the issue of loneliness ruining the fun after some time. Life is unsatisfactory whatever way it goes in the end. We can be our own worse enemies. This issue that you bring to our attention is one that I wake up to every morning of my life." What will it be like then".

No, I don't.
I am married to a wonderful man for 54 years now and I don't want to live one day longer then he does.
When God made my Husband, he threw the key away. He's one of a kind and I love him with all my heart.

If your in a bad relationship then yes of course breaking free of all that mistreatment and negativity. but its better to be able to grow old with someone you love and treasure. I'm sorry that you won't get to expereince that with the one your with. but theres always the next time around. go for it. nicer to go through life with a good person who can enjoy it with you if you can find them.

I hate to spread my negativity, but HELL YEAH! Although what you're describing sounds more to me like you just need to be single, don't wait until you're "old".......You deserve the peace in your life now.
