It was a hard transition living alone.......I dont really like it........but at the same time I know how much food and toilet paper I have in the house!!! Speaking of food .. I wonder how many people who live alone cook proper meals for themselves. Define 'proper meals' Does an apple and cheese count?

Once a week I make a big meal and if I don't have anyone to share it with, freeze half of it for later. I don't cook daily just for me, but crave real food sometimes.

Once a week I fix myself a gourmet meal with wine and all the fixins. Good to treat oneself!

So is it fair to say that the best thing about living alone is having the whole place to yourself , and the worst thing about living alone is having the whole place to yourself? I totally agree with this statement. Try to keep a room rented, I keep a better house when, others are around.

I live alone and most of the time I like the peace and quiet, but there are always those times when a person craves the company of someone special! To talk or joke or just hold!

I thought you were the lean ciusine queen Nope...that wasn't me...I'm the settle for a salad most nights girl who's wasting away. I should cook more than once a week for sure, or I'll soon be fitting in my kid clothes again.
