@ C.G . As a child no, not really ,middle of 3 children so always alot going on . Parents ( mum actually ) kept us all occupied and out and about with hikes, fruit picking , swimming , museums , country houses etc.
Since obtaining a driving licence then yes worked alone for 7 years , and have spent alot of time alone fishing or cycling . Not sure if its deliberate, but thats the way it just is.
Might not speak to anyone outside of work for a week or so sometimes.

Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.

Leo Tolstoy

Not a lot else

CG I wasn't a loner as a child had 2 brothers 1 sister and loads of mates.

I love having my own place. Have had a couple of long term relationships, but always was happier on my own. I think i'm one of those people who just like the peace and quiet and solitude.

God no, I'm a major advocate of the danger*. But the 12 hour *athon is the preserve of the single man

I have to live on my own. No woman would put up with all the others I bring back and film.

Are you happy living alone?

Well i dont live alone but i would say to you that you need to learn how to be before you go looking for another Mrs.
My life became less complex once i worked this out.
Best of luck with it.

As above - the secret is to learn to really get on with yourself, which many only really do when they've lived alone. Then you're ready for a relationship - but only if you want.

ononeorange, i think that the closest thing to the truth.right now its an adjustment thing for me.

the main prob is the house is remote so nobody ever passes buy and if i do ever tempt a bird into coming back, once the cab comes of the main road onto the loooong farm road she'll think she is entering the blair witch project!

Have shared flats, lived with partners, and now live alone and it's ace.

Downside - you have to pay all the bills, it's always your turn to do the dishes, nobody to whinge to except the cat.

Upside - you can watch whatever you want on the tele, keep your bikes whevever you damn well please and the cat is always extremely supportive.

It just takes more planning - couples don't have to plan they can just come home and decide what they are doing, solos have to arrange things more in advance.

You have to be more creative with holidays.

It would take some very significant benefits to make me share my living space again !
