Hi there, Blitz -- I was alone for 12 years between relationships, then I was chucked out after 15-years with a man -- at a time in life when chances are slim that I'll have another.

I look around at the men my age and they look like geezers. Quite a lot of them are so needy. They can barely do the wash on their own.

I'm reasonably content on my own, certainly more content than having some albatross geezer whining around me for sex and to cook his meals, etc.

Yes, I'd love to be in love. When I'm ready, I'm may go shopping for some, but I'm not ready just now.

Enjoy your freedom from needing a man.
