The experience of living independently/ single after 60.

[aninditasen]

From childhood to the age of 24 I stayed with my parents. Then I got married and moved to my husband's house and very soon had two sons and we were a family of four. So I never stayed alone as a young girl. It's only after my husband's death in 2020 that I had to live alone since 2022, before which my elder son stayed with me because of the pandemic. I should say I feel free and independent though I have to manage a lot of things. I am gaining confidence in myself and am living peaceful.

Living alone gives peace to the person. You might have experienced some I'll feelings living with your in laws. There would be crucial for your health and well - being. Now that you're alone you feel the freedom for yourself.

Sorry to hear about your husband. I’m living alone at the moment. It can be a real challenge sometimes, but honestly, I feel a lot more at peace and can just do what I want without anyone judging me.

Yes, it can be challenging at times but then you gain the confidence gradually. I went into depression for a year but gathered myself.

My kids are grown up and so they took care of me after my husband's death. My elder stayed with me and worked from home. Slowly I gained the confidence and am staying alone now.
