Being alone isn't as bad as I thought it would be

I gave up 5 years ago on relationships. I've been much happier. It takes some time to get used to but it does seem to get better. I can do hobbies without feeling guilty, there's more money, peace, and I finally learned to appreciate myself as a human being.

I'm 58, never married, and no kids. After my share of bad relationships, and seeing all the drama my siblings and mother went through with divorces, deadbeat dads, etc., I'm glad I chose to remain single after the last dude exited. I'm not interested in entertaining anyone who wants to waste my time, stress me out, and try to take advantage. I have peace of mind, and that is priceless.

You're the smart one! Very good. You know what you want and make sure you get it. That is excellent.
