You're never alone, there are around 37 million bacteria around you all of the time. Hope that gives you some comfort.19

Amusing as this thread has been...here's some advice from a long-term single-by-choice girl. Some people are okay alone. (That's me!) They don't suffer from a lot of loneliness or lack of sex. Everyone gets lonely sometimes (I often miss my great-grandmother terribly), but in general, I prefer aloneness. Here is a list of benefits I get by being alone:
(1) My house stays clean.
(2) I eat what I want when I want, dammit.
(3) I travel where I want when I want, dammit.
(4) I have more money because I'm not constantly pressured to be out and date.
(5) I appreciate and take care of my living space more. This is like (1), but having lived with others I know it can be difficult to live around someone else, especially if they're not a good fit.
I can keep going, but you get the point. I have friends that can't cope with being alone, for some reason. I don't care about the reason; I tell them what I'll tell you: if you're alone, go out and find some friends. Join a book club. Play a sport. Take up a card game hobby like bridge or whist or Scrabble. Find a community that interests you and that will embrace you. Just because I live alone doesn't mean I don't have--and value--friends.
As far as sexual considerations are concerned, someone else is more qualified to help you...I'm asexual.
Good luck, OP. It's normal to be lonely sometimes, but there's a whole world of people willing to be friendly if you're willing to reach out.7 -

It has been a long time since I was single, but it can't have changed that much. Actually, I love being alone and never had a need to have people or a person around. I take myself out to eat, to movies, out camping, and all kinds of fun stuff. And when i get that strange tingly feeling about myself a few times a day, I have me in very delightful ways. I certainly know what I like.
Anyway...I did a lot of sports when single so was always out and about, so keeping active made time pass and never really had that lonely feeling. Was having too much fun.

It's been a long time since I was single too. Seems like it's not much different than being married except I walk on a lot of eggshells now. If you like attempting to absorb calcium from eggshells through your feet, then get married. otherwise, just stay single.0

Actually, I think she's doing it wrong, but I can't tell her that or I'll be sleeping on eggshells too.3 -

it takes two, man. you're sticking around and allowing the tiptoe-eggshell-lifestyle to continue. It sounds awful. Hence, you're doing marriage wrong. Your partner is too, so you're not alone.4 -

Your personal biome DEPENDS on you!! They surround you, live inside you, and would die if it weren't for you. You are their world ♡♡♥♥♡♡
I am single, and enjoy my company, money, independance and tv rights. I meet my social needs by reaching out- volunteering, working, regular catchups with friends, - situations that balance predicatable situations with long term friends with new experiences with strangers.
Ensure you support your health, including your mental health. Your GP is a great person to have a private and confidential chat with. Talking openly about mental health is important but I am not insinuating anything about you personally.
Intimate needs- ahhhh- Tinder??1 -
I can snore as loud as I want without being nudged constantly, making for a sleepless night and a very long day. I can turn off the t.v. or turn it down when I feel like it. I can stretch out and make my area mines. It's been over a year but I am good. SO other still in home, living in living room, but there is nothing there. Basically financial now after 27 years and 2 kids (20 and 25 now) You live and learn!0

I can listen to my music, read my books, cook lovely new meals for one, train, cycle and work out as and when I please.
And I can find girls who are also up for meaningless, flirtatious fun0 -

Thats 1 healthy marriage......goals!!!!1 -
Every relationship is different, as is everyone's individual approach and opinion on single life. Spend time alone finding yourself whether single or in a relationship though, I truly think being happy with yourself is the secret to a successful relationship with even friends and family.0
