    No fears. Just reality...;-D....

  • Given the reality, then what are your fears?

  • Falling down and dying slowly only to be discovered months or years later.

    You're pets might find you and dine not having anything else to eat.

  • I would be fine with that if it meant they could live until someone found them.

  • The papers report such cases occasionally, but it's usually a week or so when neighbours call the police because of the stench.

    How about 40+ and living with boomerang kids unable to make it on their own and their kids?

  • Yours is more anger and frustration, not fear.

    When I was 40 I did not live alone.
    When I was 50 I did not live alone.

    When I was 60 I did not.

    Now I am almost 66 and I finally get to. 

    Do not think for one second that this is necessarily a bad thing.

    Having to take care of all those darn cats!

    I don't want to have to do that but if you reach 40 and are still alone . . . and I think that's the law. Just like the law that forces all New York retirees to move to Florida.

  •   I'm the only person that I don't annoy and doesn't annoy me.

    I don't have any fears about living alone.  I lived alone for a long time and loved it.

    I don't have any because the latter is not my circumstance. (So far.)

  • Have rarely lived alone, but when I did I loved it.
    The key is looking after yourself properly and liking your own company.
    Also being proactive about friendships and involvement with interests and community.

    I never thought about it or worried about it.  When it happened...I dealt with it.
