Sometimes the loneliest and saddest place is being married to a person you who resents you, doesn't respect you, and simply neglects you. Alone does not always mean lonely.

Not every person is built to be married. If you can be happy by yourself, so be it

My mother was 58 when my father died. She never dated after that. She loved her kids and her cats and God. She was happy.

I'm 62. I got cancer and my wife left me. About a week later, she wanted to come back. I told her I am done. I am sick and tired of dealing with a woman who is uncooperative and disagreeable ALL THE TIME !!!!!!! The Dr.'s have my cancer under control and I get great support. I found out two things that I never knew before. The first is how peaceful and devoid of drama my life is, and the second is how much money this "woman" cost me. I have many hobbies and also realized that she has not one interest but sticking her face in her phone. CONSTANTLY !!!!!! ....... life just keeps getting better all the time. I thank God everyday for what he has done for me ...... I am just grateful ................. and staying ALONE !!!!!!!!!! 🙂
