I left that bad marriage 16 years ago & bought a small farm that keeps me busy & I do have friends with similar interests. But my home is my retreat that I thoroughly love & now share with 2 dogs & 2 cats & all the wild critters including deer, raccoons & possums. Alone is definitely not bad especially after a marriage of 33 years tgat was nothing but arguing & fighting. Peace & quiet is what I treasure

I commend you for everything you have accomplished for yourself. It is really neat you have come this far and accomplished so much to be where you are today.
Can I ask you both, do you have a support system in place? I can assume that you both do, but that is only an assumption. For me when I left my ex, I lost the people I considered friends as they were her friends. My biological mother and Biological father and their families I do not contact because of toxic behaviors (Alcoholism and forcing religion)
I don't have proper social skills, and they seem to be at a 14 year old's gullible state despite being in my late 30's as I end up befriending some people I should never have done so with in the beginning.
So Maybe personal development is a factor. Financial stability and housing stability is another factor. Untreated medical issues (physical and mental) also comes into play. Still on a wait list for a GP and still no word.
Alone is fine. Isolation is detrimental for any human being.
