Are you a Single woman age 40 and older?

are you happy living alone? Do you ever regret being single?





I'm 23 and plan on being single forever and wondered once i turn older than 40 if i would then rather having a family instead of being single. I'm extremely happy being single right now and was wondering if that would change through time, so i thought i'd get an insight from you who's been there. Thanks.

I am 45 and divorced. I still have children at home, but they will leave soon. I have a boyfriend who wants to get married, but I just LOVE being single. If I want to clean house at 3AM then I can. If I want to sleep till noon on the weekends then I can. I cannot tell you what a sense of RELIEF I feel when he leaves the house when he comes over so I can be free to be me. I do not regret having my children as they are the BEST things about my life, but I cannot ever see myself getting married again.
Reply:I'm 50 and single and am very happy. I have a great sister, many friends, a job I love, and I date. The lifestyle has served me well for the last half century! I'm free to do what I want in my own home without asking for permission or worrying about bothering anyone. I have a family--just not the traditional husband, 2.5 kids, and the house with the white picket fence.
Reply:I'm 40 and single and happy. I do have a teenage son but no husband or live in boyfriend. I like being single, it allows me to do as I please with out having to worry about what anyone else thinks. If I want to stay in bed and watch TV all day or all night I can do it without bothering any one.


Sure sometimes it can get lonely but that's what friends are for. Plus there is a world of men out there, wouldn't be too cool if you went on a date and left your hubby at home.lol.


Could be you'll change your mind, I never say never, Mr. Right could be right around the corner. I like to keep an open mind and of course marriage is never completely off the table, but I certainly have absolutely have no regrets.
Reply:I was widowed in 2003, I miss him a lot. It took too long to train him, I cannot see breaking in a new husband now. It's hard to teach old cats new things. I've had 5 husbands, I do not play well with others.


As long as you're happy, don't wreck it, because someone wants grandchildren.


Live your life to the fullest! Let no one stand in your way!


After you have lived a bit, maybe in 10 years or so, you may change your mind. Be sure, getting married is what you want, always lay the ground rules before getting into a relationship with anyone.


By the way, I'll be 60 in 8 months, I have to get used to the idea of being 60.

Reply:life continues to change. wait and see and live accordingly.


you have 17 years to make up your mind. before you are forty. then you can marry for 20 years and divorce then you still can live for 30 years alone if you like.


single life is wonderful. come and go as you please . no one ever to tell you what to do. relationships are over rated.


I feel sorry for people that cannot be alone. they will never know pure peace.

Reply:Hey!! You stopped me with the over 40 thing. I am under that age group. BUT I can Answer this one. NO!! Do Not have children you don't want with all your might. Kids hate me and I do not regret not having any!! I did them a favor. Women are different as individuals. ( I will probably fall for a man with kids now. Damn.) Cut yourself some slack.
