I don't know where to start. my daughter is 21, almost 22, wonderful person, now in a relationship, which appears to be ok, I'm still single, I did like someone for a minute, but that didn't work out, and I've just always been fine without a relationship, it's just that there is WAAAY more drama from trying to have a romantic relationship tome, then it's worth, even for a good one. so I'm just pbbbbtht! right now. I don't feel well physically either, my daughter is about to graduate college, she moved back in for the senior year, but I don't see her much, she's busy and is doing what she is supposed to be doing. meanwhile I'm asking myself "what now?" cause for 22 years, it was all about taking care of my child, who is no longer a child, so it was my excuse for not dealing with the dating world, and it kept me busy. I didn't mind being single till I met someone I liked, and now it's just ....????? what am I supposed to do now? I guess it's like empty nest syndrome or something.
There are a lot of people who 'live alone' throughout their lives. What is important is your happiness and you live your life how you wish.
I suggest you Google 'Empty Nest Syndrome" and educate yourself with your situation. Learn how to deal with it, ..... there are plenty of things you can do.
