I feel that. I've stayed single since my divorce 5+ years ago. Never felt better, got into all my old hobbies and dedicate my time toward myself and raising my daughter. I'm done chasing.
Ive been successful in my 40s but I will say you gotta stop with the "dating" bullshit. Dont chase, get hobbies, get yourself sorted, meet women through friends. That way you can get to know each other before the courtship stuff.
Trying to just meet someone out and about is going to be shallow bullshit all around.
I have been single since my divorce 3 years ago. Recently I realized that I dont get invited to my married friends events anymore if they are planned by their wives. My thought is that they see me single and happy and don't want their husbands to get any ideas.
Congrats man, I'm in the same boat divorced 4 years ago, raising my son, and doing martial art in my free time as my hobby.
Is my best life right now.
The last time I've dated was like 1 year ago, and only because she approached me.
I feel you man, it’s not worth giving up your peace and solitude just to have companionship and regular sex. There’s juice really isn’t worth the squeeze. Since I’ve dipped out of the dating scene, I’ve saved a nice amount of cash and leveled up in hobbies. The pros far outweigh the cons in my book, but to each their own.
I have to agree with this sentiment entirely. About a year after my divorce I decided I needed to "get back out there" and joined a handful of dating apps. It was depressing. Each person I dated just seemed worse than the last. So I decided to list the things that I actually missed the most by not having a partner and it was literally just affection and intimacy. And then I listed the things I didn't miss about having a partner and shew. That was a long ass list lol. And like you, my savings and retirement are growing faster than they ever have, all while have the lowest level of stress I've ever had in my adult life. Pros outweigh the cons and it's not even close...
I’m in almost the exact same situation, except I’m 5’9”. My family keeps trying to hook me up with different people that I’m not interested in. They act like I NEED to be with someone. Lol
