Thank you ❤❤❤. Agreeeeeee
Nothing bores me more than listening to this kind of baloney. For the last 20 years I have lived alone it has been the best time of my life! As I approach 80, I certainly do not need anyone to give me a trivial list of how I should or should not live. Listen again and notice the emphasis on self, self, self. Very sad!
Im 71 now, and feel more freedom now than ever. I can admit when I'm tired, and give myself permission to do nothing if i want to.
I have been living alone now for five years I have got my dog but unfortunately doesn’t have many walks as she should due to my arthritis getting s bit worse also my dog is twelve years oldbut I go out every day also I have a friend that comes round and visits twice a week sometimes we pop out for dinner at local cafe I go to our local age uk once a week I started going on cruises 🚢 n my own since June 2023 and I’ve got cruise bug all in all I have a good life
I have a friend whom I help she was ok living alone until she became more feeble and physically cant do certain things. Pain and arthritis can be crippling and limiting. Shes fallen a bunch of times and I wish she would keep an emergency beeper. She told me she never thought she would not be able to do certain activities she was used to.
It's a good thing to be at home without any unnecessary drama, its real peaceful on a regular basis!!!
What is wrong with you? In my older years, you want me to be totally isolated and totally alone. I'm not giving up, Stacy. You must deeply secretly hate me. If two walk together, and one falls down, the other one can help them up. But if one falls alone, what is that isolated, lonely person supposed to do, sir?
Love solitude.. I'm almost 76 give me Nature, Independence..people have too much self serving drama.
Ever hear of a hobby? I really enjoy indulging all my time into making things!
I’m 88 with some serious health issues. Many of my friends are with the angels. My passion is quilting. One of my sewing machines is set up so I can sew quilts, placemats, tote bags, etc. I have 4 other machines too. I have a support group in a 12 Step program. I am content and “there is always more.” I’ll be learning till my last breath
Agreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee❤❤❤
Oh yes!!! All of the info is surely in my life after 88 years young! Thanks though for my little companion Tracee a rescue dog! Hobbies or reading also help!
This has all happened to me (aged 78 widowed 8 years ago). Never been on my own since birth I realised! I AM a loner and don't seek people or activities despite having had a very active life and run a business. Always driving or clock watching. Two children, six grandchildren and six great grandchildren but have no motivation now to do anything. I am crying listening to this. It is all true.
I am 79 and have lived alone for 13 years. I have a male companion,however, I still prefer to live alone. I am a retired Flight Attendant and spent my career around people. If I feel lonely I FaceTime friends or family. I have a dog and cat and they sit with me a lot. When I have friends visit from out of town it’s great,however, after a week I feel trapped. The main thing is spoil yourself and do what makes you happy. I find volunteering a good thing as to give feels right.
If I changed my clothes everyday, i would have way too much laundry to do and my water bill woukd go up. I only eat when my digestive juices are flowing, otherwise the food just sits there not digesting. I'm still digesting my last meal. Intermittant fasting is good for you. It prevents type II diebetes. I am well stocked with nutritious food. I get exercise when I carry the bucket of water from the kitchen to the bathroom. I do want one of those smart watches.
Women have a hard time dealing with reality. Thats why they struggle with themselves at 50. They think some rich middle class man is going to marry them and save them financially.
Also if you are computer literate go online, and chat what a senior over a certain age that will keep you busy 😅😅😅or even join a local church and get active 😮😮
I"m 77 in January and feel great. I would love to meet a man/companion. Get fed up hearing about all these so-called things to do to stay happy, peaceful etc.
I rather live alone than living with children especially when they are married and have a daughter in law or son in law that with will treat you badly I am 78 yrs old some it is better to live alone and be happy.
Very good advice to all senior citizen's and patents
There is not mention of social media when alone. The man who has gone days without conversation comes to mind. Nothing replaces a living person to communicate directly too, but discussion groups and such can fill some of the void.
That’s why God gave us Dogs
It's grateful I am, to be able to get up and do the necessary tasks each day, for my self-care. I know that, if I don't, no one will.
I love being a home chief... batch cooking and freeze...
Thanks for your tips. I live alone with my cats. Sometimes I feel lonely. In Mexico is not easy to reach Nature. The whole world knows why.
Your energy, kindness, and commitment to finding discomfort made this experience truly special.
Old guys r 2 smart 2 b suckers
We are always alone. We are born alone and end lives alone. Being is not a death sentence. The word A LONE really means At Onement with the Universe..😊 Besides being alone sharpens the mind just like a pencil, if U get my point... 😊😅😂
❤
I'm 72 and I don't mind being old even if it did come up on me when I wasn't looking. It would be nice if I didn't have to urinate like 50 times a day. 😁🙄
💯
Wow, the tips on staying connected and creating supportive routines are so practical and inspiring. A must-watch for anyone navigating this stage of life!
Indeed. Thank you!
Thank you, I needed this. The love of my life for 60 years went into a “memory care facility” three weeks ago and I am alone for the first time in my 81 years.
I'm so glad you found it helpful. All the best. You got this!

Every animal shelter needs people who care for animals and can contribute thru many different functions.🎉
It seems she could have learned to paint while married. My former sister-in-law initiated her divorce at 70. She basically sent a torpedo through our entire family. What she has done to her children, grandchildren and former family is tragic. It's all about her, though, isn't it?
It IS all about her. Her life is almost over and she has little time to waste in an unhappy marriage. Kudos to her for choosing herself. She didn't do anything to the "children, grandchildren, and former family". They just don't want to accept that she needed change. That's selfish of them. Sounds like your brother didn't make her happy & that you've taken the divorce personally. Don't. It's not about you. Support your brother without judging his ex-wife. Bitterness is a self-inflicted wound.
@shelleygregory4513 totally agree with you 💯
@@shelleygregory4513 If I remember correctly, the word happy is not in the wedding vows. Also, by now we all know that happiness is an inside job. Leaving at 70+ years old after 50 years of marriage...??? It was costly (her choice), drawn out (her choice) and vicious (also her choice). She probably knocked 4 years off her own life with all of the drama and hate she spewed. As for my brother, his life has improved immensely since she left. He is healthier, happier and sounds great when I talk to him. He is staying busy, traveling, exercising and taking care of himself. Living with contention is not a good thing, but he never would have left her. Because she spent hours and hours defending herself and tearing down my brother to everyone and anyone who would listen, she lost the respect of her children, former friends, neighbors and family. Let's just say she didn't leave with dignity and grace. But that doesn't matter either does it? Because she's "happy" now and that's all that matters. If she is truly happy, that is. And while I'm at it, let's ask...how's all that happiness working for her? Or anyone else that has taken on this kind of life? Is that happiness paying for your groceries? Did it pay for your car repair, expensive home maintenance or take care of the bill from the rehab hospital you had to stay in because there was no one to help you after that fall or sickness? You will never see me advocating for grey divorce. If I am a lone voice in the wilderness, so be it. Women who do this with the results she created are old fools. But you go girls! Happiness is the only thing that matters, right? It's all about the feelings. Bitter - I'll admit to that. I loved her. I thought we were friends and I thought she was family. After she got through slandering my brother to literally everyone, I turned into his "f-ing sister." Why? I'll never know. I haven't talked to her since she called and told me she was leaving him - which as you can imagine I asked her not to do. But she didn't do anything to anyone. It was all about her. Ok, sure. Tell that to my son after she threw his art in the trash. Tell that to the people who loved and cared for her for 50+ years that she didn't think were worth a crap when her feelings got in the way. Are all grey divorces like this? I don't know and I hope I never know more than I do now. Ever.
Who is it that is supposed to tell you? Figure it out yourself.
great information
Glad it was helpful!
Starting same at sixty. I am retired and quite blessed.Thank you.
Enjoy your golden years!

My way of downsizing living alone at 73 in 3br2bath double wide mfg home that I completely remodeled Just empty out rooms and shut the door Ez huh? Now I "live in a 2br apt" untill maybe someday my kids stop by for visit etc Why move to smaller? A bigger house keeps you moving not sitting My big living room is empty with all gym equip Ha! There is plenty of room for my 2 cats to run and play daily You sell out and will never match your house now as prices have skyrockted last 2 years Think twice
I'll stay alone baby for a thousand years, nothing's gonna touch you in these golden years.
I'm pass my fifties and single. i get to enjoy my hobbies to the fullest. My a1c is lower. I eat what i want drink what I want. Being truly happy that's the key to emotional, mental and physical health. I don't have to worry about my Grammer and spelling issues as I text this comment now. I have never felt better. If you can be single and willing to take that step? Do it! Its worth it.
Getting old sucks because your children forget all about you like I said I haven't seen my son in 7 years I've never seen my grandchildren and their five and four years old I haven't seen my daughter in 3 years and I was always an excellent father and and now I am depressed I am disabled and I can't get motivated to do anything I can't think straight I have traumatic brain injury and so many more internal injuries since I fell off a highway 125 ft during the late night shootout with two gunmen

I buy my kids birthday and Christmas presents including my grandchildren and my own kids are obviously on their birthday Christmas and all holidays and nobody calls to even say thank you and it breaks my heart and they don't even acknowledge my birthday with a birthday card my daughter will text me happy birthday dad but it's always texting and I can't stand it what happened to the birthday card what happened to the phone call excuses all we've been so busy you know you haven't seen me in 7 years come on now it's not like you know I'm I'm seeing you everyday I'm getting older and not younger I won't be around much longer my heart is broken I just can't seem to get motivated to anything I miss my children I don't know what to do somebody please help me Mike

I'm 82 , handicapped, had 2 major back surgery, and because of continuing back pain I can't do the things mentioned. I'm not a social person and liked living alone. Now living with son and not happy. To much drama and chaos within his family and I don't have much privacy . I regret moving here and I can't be independent which my son doesn't understand I can't do things he expects me to do. I'm very depressed and long for a place to live alone with my dog, which I can't even walk him. Trying to adjust but it's so hard, I just don't know what to do.
O dear
I hope you are okay. I know it's a lot to process
