I have reached that place and come out the other side. I am content and happy with myself but not by myself, not for a prospective 30+ more years. I actually love company and sharing and being with someone. Obviously it has to be the right someone, and I am willing to wait for that, but a companion to go places with and do things with and share stuff with is something I definitely want in my future.

You surely have Daniel.......sorry im only getting back to you now.....needed to close my eyes for the night.....hope you are good today...

That is dead on! When my last long-term relationship (7+ years) ended so badly, I had to pick myself up from rock bottom in two stages.

First, I had to realize that I had a RIGHT to be happy with myself and with my life again; if I let the ex diminish my happiness in any way, then I was still allowing him to affect me negatively.

Second, I had to choose to trust other men; if I let the fears and trust issues caused by the ex get in the way of having any other relationships, then I was still allowing him to affect my life negatively.

Either way, I was not about to let the ex have any more say-so over MY life. That's when I realized that the ultimate victory was to be perfectly content in my life, with or without a man. Granted, I would still like to meet a quality man for a long-term relationship; I would still like to unleash all the love I have left to give, but until the situation is right, I will continue being as happy and as active as I normally am. so yeah, my life is very, very good. Point for me, zero for the ex.

Perfectly happy and content by myself. It took me a long time to get to this place in my life but I am proud to say I am here, despite all of the obstacles I and my little family have had to endure and go through to get here...we are happy and at peace for once.

It will take a very special man to change that for he would have to be able to "slip into my life" with out upheaving it...

I do, however, know for a fact that God has someone out there for me and when the time is right, we will meet (if we have not already and He is just getting a good laugh out of this, lol...God has a wicked sense of humor, you know, lol)...so to all of our futures whatever they may hold

Love to you all!

Happyness shared is multiplied, sadness shared is divided!

You never know what life brings and a good spouse is nice to have in both cases.

some point in our lives we come to the point
where we do not need someone in our lives
sometimes we just want someone in our life
we don't need them
but we want someone to share our life with don't ask me i get confuse when it comes to ladies anyway

Am at the point where I don't need or particularly want someone in my life full time. I enjoy my freedom. Kids are finally grown and I can come and go as I please. But if I did meet someone and we really clicked and got along with no drama or roller coaster rides would definitely make room.

It's no problem.. hope you slept well, as for me, doing ok, and about to get ready for work, it's going to be a hot one today.. 99 degrees

Hi All,

I have to say I have reached a point in my life after spending some years living without a full time live in male in my life where I feel comfortable with myself and no longer long for someone to share it with.
Has anyone else reached this place if so let me know...
