Life as a single

[Tuearts right boot]

I was a professional shagger until I met the wife at 40. Married at 45, 16 years ago.
Great cure for blowjobs.

I take it the hours and money were good.

36 now , feels really tough to find woman with whom I am confident I will be able to be for rest of my life . At crossroads of thinking even I should keep looking for marriage options or stay single. Any singles in our group and how’s life been in your 40s , 50s and above ? Any regrets, any advices ? Do you feel lonely sometimes and how do you cope with it ?

If you're looking for love you will never find it.

I'm 47

Last serious relationship was 6 years ago.

Over that time I've taken control of my life and happy with my solo status. I feel empowered to do as I please without having to consider and compromise with a partner. Not too fussed about sex as I've passed that point of usefulness in the human race. I'm grateful for what I have and building to make sure I'm secure towards the end of my life.

Social relationships are important but also is time by myself. It's the first time in my life I've felt comfortable in my own skin and what I have achieved.

When I was single I used to think how great it would be to have somebody to love. Somebody to come home to at night and to cook for. To spend long weekends away with and to pour every last drop of me into making something so special words could never really describe what we had.

Then I'd have a wank and be reet.

I get that.

I've travelled all over on my own and had some wonderful experiences I've occasionally wished I shared some of them with someone close. But maybe they wouldn't have felt so special if I had?

Pretty well encapsulates my own situation. Had a couple of really intense relationships after I split up with my ex and got burned and hurt both times. I then decided that I didn't need anyone else to validate my existence. I have some good female friends but that's as far as it goes.
