Not everyone has friends or children. I have been living with my 2 children since I had the youngest 35 years ago. Away from my country of birth for 38 years, both my children have left the country for better jobs since they finished University and I am very proud of both of them as a single mother. They do visit, so do I and I can’t ask for more, at 60 years, I still hold a job (in mental health crisis) living alone has given a chance to take myself first .

I’m 67 and have been divorced for almost 30 years and loving it. When I was married I felt so alone, now I’m alone but don’t feel like I felt when I had someone. Also, even when I was married, I was the one making all the decisions,working, taking care of the kids, trying to fix things, etc… I know I’m very independent and self sufficient which helped me a lot living alone. I love my freedom and cannot see myself married again. Love my life! Ladies, you can do anything by yourself! Be blessed🙏🥰

I have been living alone since my divorce 22 years ago. I’m 62 now and honestly, cannot imagine living any other way! I love the freedom of being able to do everything from staying up late to sew with music on to having a martini with cheese and crackers for dinner if that’s what I feel like. The first weekend I was alone years ago, I called a girlfriend and told her I was giddy with content and it’s been that way ever since.

I would like to add the fifth suggestion.. Find something to occupy your mind by doing something productive. You could sort the house out by focusing on each room or a corner each day to get rid of the accumulated stuff. Create your own exercise routine, learning from watching videos on RU-vid. Join a library to start reading books, if you don’t already. It is very important to keep our brain ticking, and body healthy.

Thanks Kimberly for this video! My husband passed very unexpectedly 3 years ago now. Since then RU-vid has been my main man - I have fixed my Dyson animal vac, my washer, and just the other day my garbage disposal jammed - found the fix on RU-vid and saved myself serious $$$ on a house call. You inspired me when I found myself suddenly alone - I figured if you could get rid of everything, pack up the dog and cat, and move across the country on your own, I needed to get my act together (so I did).

I’m glad you are taking care of yourself, and hope you have a good support system in place. I watched my father go through this behavior with Alzheimer’s and encouraged my mother to get respite workers in to relieve her periodically. She didn’t go this route. None of us lived in the same state where they did. They wanted to stay put. We helped as we could around our jobs. I also encouraged her to attend Alzheimer’s Association meetings. She tried one meeting but felt the folks weren’t kind. I asked her to try another group but she didn’t care to try again. I wished I’d tried those same meetings where I’d lived. It broke my heart to see my father that way and my mother dealing with him the best that she could, at her expense.

That’s all well and good if you live in a friendly and warm area as you do - try being single and older in dull, grey, rainy and unfriendly UK where no-one speaks to you, smiles or even has eye contact: and if you’re an ‘elder orphan’ people think there’s something wrong with you!

And so needed. I think one of the more intimidating aspects of living alone is the idea of being lonely…. Starting and/or joining a group like this can make a big difference.

Hi Kimberly.....This is Kimberly here too!! I just found you today. I will be 66 in August. I am just starting a new job on Monday. I already work part-time at a Health Food Store. So I am now working at a new Community store that is all about local stuff. I feel so fortunate to be working with this amazing gal that came from poverty. She is helping our community here with three gardens with grants from the State. We will be growing food like microgreens and other veggies. This is another good learning opportunity for me to learn and help our community.

I've lived alone (divorced) for over 25 years and I have enjoyed the freedom. That said, I do envy people in a stable, long term relationship. It just wasn't in the cards for me but I wish it had been different. I don't waste time wallowing in misery but I do wish things had been different for me. I have friends and relatives who have had very long marriages or relationships and I'm happy for them but occasionally feel sad that I never managed that.

Great tips but unfortunately not all of us can travel, live elsewhere, go to alot of places unless we have the means and the desire. Also, please never overestimate where you live and deem it safe..... No where is safe these days, even if you are in a "good, safe" area. Self awareness is key anywhere and everywhere. Living alone is not always terrific, it's lonely a lot of times and takes a while to get used to. I applaud you on your journey and joy of living alone, it's just not that easy..... For some maybe for not for all. Thanks for a great channel!

I’d also add: 1. Leave a spare house key with a neighbour in case you have a fall and can’t get up - it will save the emergency services having to break down your door. 2. ALWAYS carry your mobile (cell) phone wherever you go on your property: if I were to pass out in my rear garden no-one would see me for all the greenery so don’t get caught out - always plan for emergencies. 3. If you live in a concrete jungle and hate it - move. I left it too late and am now stuck in a house I love in a location I loathe because the local authority (city hall) focusses on families, not older people. Don’t make the same mistake.

My husband died over a year ago and I hate living alone. I absolutely can't stand it. I miss having him say I love you, to give me a compliment I know he meant, the companionship, to have someone to talk to, to sound off ideas to, to share things with, to work side by side, etc, etc. You ladies that are happy being alone, that's great and I know everyone's situation is different. As for me, I'd rather have him with me to do the things that are talked about here. No fear here just lots of loneliness.

I understand what you're saying. My husband of 41 years passed away almost 4 years ago, and it has been a difficult transition. Right now I feel like I'm somewhere in between your loneliness and Kimberly's lifestyle. Like Kimberly I find myself enjoying some of the freedoms of living alone. I can keep things clean and organized, eat what I want when I want, etc., but I miss the companionship of having my husband by my side, to talk to, and snuggle with. My youngest daughter got me a rescue dog almost 3 years ago and that has made a difference in my life. I still enjoy those freedoms, but now I have some companionship and unconditional love. Obviously, it's not the same as human companionship and I still miss my husband and always will, but it has helped me. I no longer feel like I'm talking to myself because my little fur baby is there listening, though most likely not understanding. But she's excellent company, and I don't know what I'd do without her. You're still fairly new in your widowhood, so give yourself time to continue grieving and adapting. Things will get easier and you will find what works for you to bring joy into your life again and feel less lonely. I'll be praying for you in your new journey. 🙏💕

There's no short cut through grief. Each person must goes through the process in their own way. 18 years ago I was unexpectedly widowed. It was devastating! 6 months after I decided I had to make an effort to move on and I enrolled in every class that sounded interesting at my community center. I fell in love with line dance, no partner required. Then surprisingly, my previous place of employment asked if I would like to return. Best thing ever! I retired 3 yrs ago at 83. There's still a hole in my heart and a song, thought, or comment will bring tears but with some effort on my part, life slowly became full and satisfying in a different way. I wish this for you. 🤗 ❤

My brother died 21 years ago and my sister in law never grieved her loss, kept smiling etc but I believe most need time to grieve in their own way. There again I also believe it's best not to dwell on grief for too long because I'm sorry to say we humans get fed up of people who are always miserable. Life is precious and we only have one go at it, so we have to enjoy what we've got while we have it. Grief is part of life, but time is a great healer

I found this video very encouraging. I’m 63 and with my husband since I was 19. So I’ve never lived alone. My husband is older than me and has brought up several times in the last few years the subject of what would I do if he wasn’t around. It breaks my heart to think about that, but we’re not likely to die hand in hand. Hearing your words was somehow comforting.

Thank you Kimberly, My beautiful husband has Alzheimer’s ( he age 69, me 58) and he has had significant changes however is We are fortunate enough to spend every moment together and we do have fun. Its a modified version of pre-alzhimers but we enjoy even though the conversations have nearly disappeared. And yes, a lot of work that I am humbled and honored to do. But you made me chuckle when you said being alone allows you to wear what you want - I laugh because even with my husband’s inability to articulate or converse anymore -he mainly just whistles or smile’s. But recen when I put on an a very expensive brand new gown to attend an out of town wedding -he sure found a way to express his dislike for the gown and shattered my thoughts of how lovely I must look 😆 Luckly I brought with me a backup gown that I could tell he thought was ok. So I wound up leaving the Sachini and Bachi gown along with hotel room tip behind on a hanger. Naturally I am giving my all to keeping my husband around but for a moment when you said that you can wear what you want-I chuckled and thought “ok good at least there is that’. I love both your channels and I benefit so much by listening while my hubby sleeps-your impact is so positive. Thank you

This is absolutely me ! I'm 65 and have been living alone for 20 years. The only thing that does not resonate with me in all you mentioned is the texting thing to a friend every morning. To me, it would be suffocating but I understand that it could be a safety feature for someone who is not in the same mental space that I am in. Last year, I retired, sold my townhouse, bought a new one in another town and moved exactly 23 days after my last day of work. Of course, that was a lot going on in a short period of time so I needed to rest for awhile after moving so I could recharge my battery. I am single, not actively looking for but open to a relationship BUT NOT at any cost. I have come to a point in my life where even if I met someone, I would choose to continue living alone in my own home. Absolutely NO moving in together. I enjoy my freedom , my health , my children and grandchildren. I have just returned from a 2 week trip to France. SO ladies, go out there even if it can be scary sometimes. Enjoy what you have and where you are now. Learn from every experience !

I don't have a car, and cannot afford even a used one. I have to walk to a bus stop to wait for a bus, and then have to tranfer to another bus. I don't own a Smartphone because I can't afford one. I rent a tiny room in an elderly person's house. I am on a super fixed income and even getting to a senior citizen center is two buses each way. Especially hard in hot weather, too hard to be waiting at bus stops to go to a senior center in 90 + degree weather. I have alway lived alone but when I was younger and worked, I rented a one bedroom apt. Now I cannot even afford a studio apt as rents are so high nowadays, on a very fixed income. There is a large senior citizen apt. not too far from me but you have to have 3 x monthly income over the renr to qualify to live there. I think the one bedrooms rent for $1, 750 a month, so you have to have 3 x that. They don't have studio apts. there. So it is very hard to be alone sometimes. My family was never self sufficient type people and we never even camped our or knew how to do things, We always lived in apts anyway, never had a house.

Going to a nice restaurant at lunchtime feels different than in the evening. I do go out by myself at night, especially when on holiday. But some people will ask you if you are on your own. Some people even act as though they feel sorry for you. But there is admiration too, especially from the women who would clearly rather be alone than with boorish companions. Sometimes men will try to join you thinking you are looking for company, so it is best to have your no face ready. Still, a smart outfit and a solo lunch has a different vibe. Even when I was in my twenties and married I often had theatre days or park days alone with a nice lunch. My then husband had no interest in my hobbies, and I was happy to go alone rather than argue about it. I do not get the same problems with a restaurant lunch as I do with dinner, and the journey home is safer and easier.
