To be so fucking thankful I'm single?

Been single for 9 years now. I love it. Left a DV relationship and find it hard to trust or build a bond with a man without them getting on my last fucking nerve. I'll be happy dying single. But my gosh the threads I've seen the past few days about people's partner's/husbands being lazy or miserable or ungrateful over this supposedly happy period reminds me how happy I am not having to deal with all that shit anymore

Absolutely; completely feel the same as I mentioned on another thread. I'm not remotely interested in bad sex and worse relationships any more 😁😉❤️

No me either. The thought of entertaining a man in this lifetime knocks me sick
