Have wondered how hard it is to live for years without a life partner.... I think it’s Hell

Guess everyone's thoughts are different when it comes to that..

Sure it would be nice to have someone around once in a while but hell naw this is my heaven get to do as I please when I want to..I'm not one that has to have someone around 24/7... I kind of enjoy life at this point and time having the freedom to do as I please..

Generally it is easier to live alone most of the time. You get to do what you like and when you like without having to consider anyone else. You do need to be self sufficient either doing everything for yourself or being able to hire those things you can't or won't do for yourself. You also need to have a life outside of your home that includes friends and social activities. I doubt I could ever partner up with someone and live together 24/7 again.

Looks like you have a pretty one with you,
I am two years into it after a split from a 50yr relationship and like TxsGal I do like a lot of my own time, I wonder just how I would manage if I met some one on here, like I've had enough of you today can I take you home?

The only time I miss not having a "partner" is when I have to move something heavy.

I rather live without a partner, than being with the wrong partner again. Just enjoying some freedom here.

I kinda enjoyed having the perfect solitude.

Depends don't it
On a few things
1 being, is it your choice?
If it is, your probably cool with that
If it is not, your probably pissed. about that
But that's natural

I don't find it hard or hell. Sorry you're struggling.

There are some aspects about living without a partner that I enjoy, especially since my past relationships ended poorly... no drama or headaches/heartaches. Although I wasn't attracting the right ones for me, and still had a lot of growing to do myself. I think when relationships end poorly we are more likely to rejoice being free of it and by ourselves. Unfortunately it can also put a damper on the desire to try it again with someone new.

Even though I'm okay with living without a partner, I would still prefer to live with one. Just need to meet the one that's right for me and me for him.

It's only hell if you can't be happy and fulfilled on your own. But if you can't have that by yourself you can't find it with a partner either. It only temporarily feels better because for a brief moment the 'new' fills the void you have inside of you. When 'new' wears off, you will begin to feel the void again.
The difference is, of course, you can then bang around being unhappy together

Why would you wonder about this? If you are living in heaven with your life partner right now, just enjoy every moment you have now as nothing lasts forever.

Living alone is not too bad. Definitely not hell for me and for the others who repled above. It could feel like hell for people who will be separated from their family because not living with your kids would be very difficult.

Living alone might be difficult for some, but not for others like me. I am happy and content living on my own. I am self sufficient and I have friends and family nearby. I don't have to share my bathroom or get annoyed when the toilet seat is left up wtf! I can sleep in as I am retired and go shopping or spend the day doing whatever the heck I like. Life alone is great but it would be better with someone loving me and I loving them.... from afar LOL

Best wishes

Loneliness sucks . Nothing little, it's difficult but not impossible

I have been living without a life partner for years. It's not difficult.

I've noticed that some people can't go out alone to the movies, as an example. I've gone to the movies alone many, many times. It is not a problem.

I think Is nice to have someone once in a while to do things together but for me at this point is not that important

I like it....but then again I think people are.pain the ask me no more question tell me no more lies.....shave and a hair cut two bits.....

Brought to you by truth it does exist.....

I've wondered the opposite,could I live with a partner again after being solo for so long- longer than I ever had a partner.

Its only Hell because we allow it to be Hell.

My guess is you need to figure out who you are right now and live in the moment.
The only one that is powering Hell is YOU.
Its a matter of being able to let go of the delusions about the union that doesn't matter to the reality in which you face.
First, find yourself.
Then realize you can never control how another feels about you.
You live in a world as you experience it.
Its all about you. it always has been.
Find yourself again and you might stand chance.
Its your life, nobody on this planet has the authority to dictate your life.
After all, it is YOUR life.
Without you, nothing actually exists.
Take control of YOU.

yeah right

Truthfully it's harder to live with someone
