This made me cry💔. Because I’ve been alone almost all my life. Betrayals and disappointments - I know them too well. Now I enjoy my own company more than anything. No drama, just peace and quietness bring me happiness. I realized that age is a true treasure of a woman because with age a woman gains wisdom and knowledge.
@@nichmon3221 exactly! If you alone - no one can do anything bad to you. Protect your peace and happiness from evil eyes and evil people. Single means powerful and independent ❤️💪
@@debrahigh7968 underneath your brokenness is a wholeness. Pray to God🙏Ask whatever your heart desires and it will be given to you. It took me 3 years to heal from toxic relationships but I never lost sight of a bright future ahead. Don’t let anyone to take away your fulfilled life. Enjoy every breath you take, praise yourself often, even for small things, talk to yourself always in gentle manner. You will see that you never needed anyone but YOU. You are a Queen ❤️
@@bamanana2922 One of my sons died in 2017. My kids dad died 2019. My bff of over 36+yrs died 2021. And between my sons death til 4mos ago, more than 15+ friends, and loved ones have died. To say the least, it 💯 changes a person. It definitely separates the real from the gamers. I'm not looking for sympathy nor am I pouting. Just sayin' it gets real.
I love my own space. No need to be fake, or answer to anyone, it’s just a bother. Wish I could find someone more like myself but I seem to push most away for some reason. 🤷🏼♀️
@@laurettelaliberte8864Same here. I’ve found myself more than once feeling I needed to explain myself. Anymore, I know I don’t owe anyone any explanation for the way I choose to live. I simply say, “I love my solitude”. And if another can’t accept that, its their problem, not mine. 😉 ☺️
@@laurettelaliberte8864 parfois, les gens veulent nous inclure dans leurs problèmes pour qu'on les règle à leur place....Mais il faut se faire passer en 1er...
That's good. I got called an ass because I told a man that I had no friends. He told me I couldn't have true empathy because I had not kept or nurtured my friendships even though I tried explaining I was done with the betrayal, gossips and drama that women came with. Then he felt silent. And when I asked him that I hope he didn't think me weird, he responded by saying I sounded like an ass for asking that question. I felt so little and worthless after his statement. I told him his statement hurt me and he never apologized but ghosted me soon after.
@iRespectMen . True truth, stings to the core of the soul. It will rip a fake facade right off the face of a wolf in sheep's clothing, right off. It's ok to hurt from some words that come from a predator, hence the ghosting. A wolf will move on when he can't get in at his prey to kill and destroy it. You'll be ok, just give yourself time to heal.
@@tammyweaver1384 Then I suggest you to move far away before it's too late. The longer you stay, the worse it gets. I'm dealing with the consequences. But I am getting some help. If you're a minor, then you have to wait till you're 18.
Well id love to but I don't have any where else to go. I'm double teamed too both my mother and my brother are true narcissistic!!! I'm as humble as a apple pie. So was my daddy!! I messed up big time!! My mom got sick so like a good daughter I went to take care of her. After a few Mos. Of her being sick I decided that I couldn't live in both places!! So I moved in with HER. OMG what a boo-boo ! When she's not feeling well she's ok but Lord when she gets well she's wide open!! This house she lives in is mine. The loan they had said I was to own it after my parents pass it was in the document it's SELF. My grandma gave them the loan with her blessing but they were supposed to follow her wishes !!! This gets BETTER! I was told for 30 yrs. That the house belongs to me. Well about 15 months after I moved in I find out that the house is in my brother's name!!! My mama did that out of spite !!! BECAUSE I DID LIVE WITH HER BEFORE BUT I HAD TO LEAVE. SHE WANTED TO BE IN CHARGE OF MY MONEY. IM 64 I KNOW ABOUT MONEY!! BEING NARCISSISTIC SHE WANTS EVERYTHING!!! I DON'T THINK SO!! I DID GO OFF !! I STILL CANT BELIEVE HOW THEY TREATED ME.
Can relate! Married for 12 years,divorced for 25 years, have 5 adult children that are age 29 through 35 and new love is Jesus Lord God!💗❤ I have more peace , strength and love now than I did before.😊💗💛 Oh ,I also an Aunt to many and Great Aunt to many as well!!😁
@@Plektrud Yes we ( I am) are , How!? When we married then divorce ,we have learn many things during our marriage, but that may or may not strengthen us, when we divorced we fall and our learning has strongly begin. The person above went through it twice and I only once. I do have 5 adult children. Even when I was married for 12 years and before marriage my circle was extended small. Now been divorced for 25 years and 62 years old it has been extremely small circle and my strength ,self growth and seeing the truth in people ( including in you!) makes me that woman. I dont need other people to nake me happy and I can stand on my own ( with the help of Jesus and my 5 children). Being divorced is not easy and if you can stand up ,move forward, handle the hits, seeing the truth in people ( in which I see you very unkind to us kind abd disrespectful) and have a tiny circle ( any time of life especially now), I say say we /her / they/ you are that woman. I always have had a small circle in my whole life. Me being Dyslexic ( Dyslexia), gave me the small circle. Not all divorced woman are looking for validation and needed for something or wants a crowd . Some of us are just as stronger as any other women. Some women are all that is said even when married. You really dont know us women ,do you!?
I do not think "no husband" was part of that, quality... I mean you do you, but I think being part of a loving family is amazing and I enjoy my husband.
I am a man and time has thought me that I am better alone. Been married and had two relationships and my friends I can count on one hand with many fingers to spare. At work I concentrate on my job and many people value my work and like me because they trust my work. In my own company at home or out in public places I am happy and never feel alone. I am very happy with my own company and know that I am loved and appreciated. I am now 64 have been used and abused but I never let that put me down. I know my strength and abilities. I am nice, kind and complete even when someone tries to put me down, I know who they are by the way they treat me and by their circle of so called friends. I value myself and never put anyone above me except God almighty. Amen.
Totally agree. I am just like you and I can travel the world, see movies, live theaters, concerts, hiking, eat at restaurants, camping, etc by myself and thoroughly enjoy it.
Walked away from family & friends 3 year's ago and I don't regret it whatsoever. Am finally at peace . I moved from Massachusetts to West Virginia alone at at 56 . And live with my dog's in deep Appalachia. Am at peace with myself and with God ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Walked away from family because they was never there for me. Besides my parents who are gone I never had a relationship with my living siblings or extended family.
More than twenty years alone with no friends but not lonely. Quite happily doing my creative thing with no judgements from others. I love my life. I just didn't expect Sir Anthony Hopkins to be the 'voice of Reason'
I have Peace and Never Feel Trust In God ONLY......HE Is Faithful and True, God's Word's Are Freedom, TRUTH, GRACE, and Mercy, Kindness....I can Give Them Back To Whom I Choose. ALL GLORY TO GOD/JESUS, HOLY SPIRIT OF Our Spirituality. YES, I am Very Comfortable with THIS My Choices. Thank You,My Savior Jesus, Father's God's Word's Are Written To Build A Strong Foundation.....as I Grow, and Walk With Those I have Chosen. And Be Extremely Happy.... Keep Prayer's Going, Trust God's Blessings. Amen,Amen,Amen. Love,You All.....Thank You Jesus Christ Son of God 🙏
This is so obviously fake. Hopkins doesn't tend to bloviate publicly in social media type inspirational nonsense. If you listen, you can hear it's not really this voice anyhow.
@@marieniggenaber2605it's AI. And it's precious, saccharine, simplistic. Don't take your inspiration from a robot telling you that "a woman with no friends" is so rarified and superior.
I was just thinking the same thing. What ran through my mind was the words of a hymn: "What a friend we have in Jesus. All our sins and griefs to bear. What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer."
This is EXACTLY me right now. I have no desire to be within the centre of a circle of toxicity dressed up as "friendship". I've been there one too many times, and at my ripe age now, I prefer solitude, peace and non judgement - of myself and others. Lonely sometimes? Indeed. Bitter? No. Integrity is everything to me, and if I were to continually involve myself in others' sourness, then who and where would I be? I opt for peace.
So true I would rather have no friends or a small circle than to have a crowd to validate my worth. My worth comes from God. Thank You Lord for loving me unconditionally. Amen 🙌🙏
I was always there to listen to them when they needed me but no one ever really really listen to me when i needed them. That's how i decided to be my own listener and protector when i cut them all of them and their dramas.
Same here. The more you give the more you get taken for granted. You give your time , loyalty , a ear to listen , advice, shoulder to cry on then they gone. You served your purpose. Lucky for me always enjoyed my own company.
So mixed about this ...yes she's secure and doesn't need validation to know her worth nor is she afraid to stand alone but maybe she also knows that and Idc who u are we all have hid parts of ourselves at times so maybe she is strong enough in herself to stand by those who aren't in their best of times. Maybe she is strong enough to stand alone and believe when others may not. No one shines bright all the time so I agree but hopefully more than strong she is compassionate and understanding cause maybe ...just maybe that is where strength or hers is built from. But...me dunno 🤷🏻♀️
Or born an orphan - it’s environmental… we can all listen to that inner voice and let God take the wheel. I was working for food and lodging by the age of 10. You learn to listen to God and trust the inner voice to manifest instantly what’s needed. Not greed, need. Doesn’t take years - takes faith, situation and consistent action to find any result. If there’s no home base to run back to - you learn real quick how to buy a mortgage.
@@Jenesaisquoi44 Your circumstances were very different from most, so you had to learn early in life. For the majority it takes a lifetime of experience to gain wisdom. Wisdom isn’t street smarts. Good luck on your journey 🥰
Gosh...70 years young, I can't remember a time when I wasn't this person described.......and I can't remember a time when Jesus didn't hold my hand. "I wish for you love and peace....to be your everyday companion". 🕊✝️🤍
Because God made other people so you wouldn’t be alone. A small circle of friends is wonderful to have! Being alone, especially the older you get, would be very lonely!
@@erindowling8540 If got my children and grandchildren. Together with Jesus that is the perfect combination, Anthony Hopkins talks about friends, I don't need them!! I love people but Jesus is my best friend.that's all I need, and I should know, I'm 57 years old. Jesus lives and if you sincerely seek Him He will answer you, God bless you all. 🙏❤️
Sorry to hear you are not coping. Hiding away brings demons into your life. Pray to GOD to find you a nice friendship group, and ask GOD to send Holy Ach Angel Michael to protect you. Easy as, and forgive those that hurt you. Do you have resentment? It sounds like it. Depression is not healing from the past, anxiety is FEAR of…..? So call out “GOD HELP ME” I will pray for you to be happy like you use to be. I know that’s in you. Life is so short, so get out and about. GOD is with you if you pray-ask. There will always be bad people, just ask GOD and TRUST IN GOD. GOD BLESS YOU FOREVER.💖🙏
I had to get rid of some people in my life that I thought were my friends and had my back but I found out that they were not my friends it hurts but just know everyone that has been through this you’re not alone and you do have worth and you do deserve respect and love God bless and take care of yourselves.
NOT SO IN MY VALUES AND BELIEFS, as a person gets older, people should be out and about. Set up boundaries and that is worthiness. Share, bake, movies, dinner parties, coffee shops are all there for friendships or to have down time. Never forget GOD in prayer. That’s why people are lost, they miss there HOLY FATHER GOD.💝🙏
Describes me perfectly! Unfortunately, if you live long enough, the remaining members of your circle will move away, or die. I am nearly a recluse now, but happy & never bored or lonely. I spend most of my time with physical media or electronics. Music makes everything better!
Now I know that I have been doing exactly the right thing all these years... And m at peace... Away fm toxic ppl who constantly pulled me down back then!
I am older woman I am living by myself there is no worrying or drama. I feel this is the best time of my life. I am happy that other women have realized that it is alright to be alone. I read a comment and yes I think we are Warriors because we all have been through things other couldn't and we are still standing. I say peace to all my fellow women and take care.
I cried listening to this...I been alone, far away from love ones, and love my own company. My daughter is 10 now. I love her for being a social loving child, but she told me how hard is to see friends going away. I told her...real friends are always there....life will give you many friends but the real one is within yourself. ❤
When my daughter was a child she asked me to read, Cinderella. I told her, I will read it but know this, Cinderella is a made up story. A fantasy. A handsome prince will not show up in a woman's life and save her from her drudgery. A handsome prince will not show up and save a woman from evil relatives.
I agree . I wasted too much of my life, and energy engaging with people who didn't truly like or value me. As I've got older I'm learning to put that time into myself. I now have more years behind me than I have before me. Once I understood this, I value my time and peace so much more, and with the true friends I do have around me, I feel blessed ..❤
I have two long term friends that I can trust 100%. They are loyal, kind, no drama and very good women. I'm also close to a couple of family members. I am grateful to have God and good people in my life. I prefer a small group of quality people.
Im at a church where theres no gossip..no back stabbing. I been going for a few months. These are people put in my life by God. He knows what we need. We do need people in our lives not to validate but to encourage and lift us up. God is the way to go. God Bless
How can you be selective⁉️Evil is far powerful than humans. You need GOD🙏 to protect you. As ufo craft are abducting humans who live alone. It’s the truth.
So true. I am that woman who has a few friends. I am also a very good judge of character, I can easily make out if someone is true or fake. We living in a world full of toxic n evil ppl. It's best to stay away from them in order to live a peaceful life.
I have people that I speak to but I don't have a good good friend cuz I care about people their problems become my problems so I keep it a limit what you don't need a lot of friends in this world you just need one good person that you can trust❤yes I affrim and I claim it yes
