Are you scared of living alone?

I lived alone for almost a year and I loved every minute of it. If I did not have my daughter I would tell my husband to move out and get his own place just so I could have my own. I know one of his aunts who actually did that to her husband. They could not get along in the same house so he got his own aprtment and she got hers but they stayed married. It is so much more peaceful by yourself and you can control your entire environment. When you don't want to be bothered with people you can just go home and close your doors and be by yourself. I sometimes long for those days of living by myself!

...Hi tuckersheri, I have been an independent soul since I was very young. I am the oldest in the family and have never ever, if I am recalling correctly, been afraid of being alone. There is nothing to be afraid of. If we assume that there is something that is going to harm us, then maybe that will happen. When I was younger, I traveled alone and enjoyed my trips, meeting new people and seeing new things. One has to have a true sense of self, and believe that whatever happens, one will be alright. I have seen women get married very young, only to have their husbands die young and then they are alone again. Life is life, there is nothing, nothing, as a president once said to fear, but fear itself. For while one sits and fears the unknown, life is passing one by, with fear as a prison. One must lose the trappings of fear and break out of the prison, to fully experience the fullness of life and its pleasures. One can be married or have a companion and still be lonely, it's an internal thing which one has to come to grips with. Fear is invisible, we are the ones who paint a picture and bring fear to life. Turn fear a loose and claim your life, free of fear, in whatever form it takes. Love yourself and practice being your very own best friend. Take care.

Having a pet really helps. It makes the evenings go back quicker and they are so funny! If you are scared to be alone, you might want to have a smarter pet (like a lab or another smart dog) that will actually protect you, not some scrawny dog that just yaps. They won't make you feel protected because they can't physically protect anything.

i dont think that i would be scared of living alone i would just be lonly so i would have to have a cat or a dog with me so that i dont get too lonly. i would not e scared of living alone because i would have friends over from time to time and i would go to work and stuff so i would not be home alone too often. Happy Mylotting!

I think people like the joy, smile and happiness, it's great to have a warm family, and do everything with our familiers. But sometimes life is life, it have many reason that we can't live with our familers together, like me I leave my familiers and my hometown to work in another city, which is far from my hometown, and I really miss my familiers, sometimes I feel alone, but I try to live happy, independent without another one, eg. I go to shopping, go to climb, go to the library by myself, step by step, I find the fun, free and happiness. so I think you don't live alone, you can come here mylot to make many friends, and we are always around you.

i have lived with a large family for all my young life and having my batty little nephew coming in and out of my room was always welcome. but since moving in with fella its tooo quiet for me!! and going MAD cos of it!! he loves his quiet space in his room and his comp and FB on the go... socialises there.. I love to have people around me!! hear, feel and see them!! So he's going to live in his little bubble and I'm going to expand mine a bit more now it has shrank cos of moving in.. 'SIGH' lol

having a companion is a gr8 blessing.i had been living alone since past five years . it was not out of choice but somehow i had to and i am still living alone.initially it was fun to be all my myself no rules like at home,but gradually i got bored out of it . it was then i fell very ill.but now i am at peace with my loneliness. cultivate some good habits and then it gets a bit easier.and it no longer matters ,in fact its better than staying in a compromised relationship with bad company.never forget to be in touch with those who are important to you,that too provides some quality time

Why do you imagine so much? It causes a deep fear in your sub conscious mind and that makes you scared to live alone. Sometimes there is no choice instead of living alone. Why are you living alone? Do you own a house then why don't you let a part of your house. That may solve your loneliness.

I used to live alone for several months. It's true that sometimes I felt lonely and missed my families. But I was not scared of living alone. I regard living alone as a meaningful experience. When I lived alone, I had enough time and quiet environment to consider something further. Living alone made me deeply know how important my families mean to me. Such feelings could be easily neglected when I lived with my families. Another acquisition of living alone was the increase of self-care ability. For nobody could help me, I had to do everything by myself. During that period my ability improved a lot. In a word, you'd better try to live alone for some time if possible, then you'll enjoy your family life more.

Actually, I want to try that. I want to be independent by living on my own. It really sounds scary, but I want to try it anyway.

I don't like to be alone. I don't want to see myself without any companion in life. It is wonderful to have somebody to be with.

Im not scared of living alone I think thats something that someone has to deal with in a point of your life. It's worst to live with someone that is not your friend in anyway or someone that has hurt you alot. :-)

Hi! tuckersheri. Maybe we have the different living environment.I'd like to live alone.Because I can do everything I want.However,I feel lonely sometimes.If that,I will call my friends or surf the Internet.And I think I'm very courageous to live alone.If you scare of living alone,you can find a roommate to live with you,but you'd better choose the person who you know a lot,it can be safe.

Living Alone would be Scary, i would hate it. Being Freaked out every time you go to bed.... ugh i couldnt

I would rather not live alone but I could do it if I had to. Before I met my husband there were times when my daughters and grandson were away and I was alone in the house. I wasn't afraid because I've always had dogs and I've always lived in safe neighborhoods. But, it is nicer to have someone to keep you company.
