Reaching a place of really feeling happy alone

Wondering how to get to this point! Separated 4 years, will divorce this year. Have two teens. Co parent amicably.
Just wondering if others found that at point things changed with regard to stopping wanting relationship.

Hate the apps and rarely meet new men day to day life.

Does attraction and desire drop off as we age? I'm 41. Give me hope that I might reach this promised land of happy single!

If that’s what you want then you’ll get there. I found counselling, talking to friends and doing some work on myself (relationships, my life goals, etc) helped me along the way.

im a lot older than you. Decades. Married twice. I found that just as I started to feel happy with my situation - I met someone when I wasn’t even looking…

Thanks for your reply and it’s interesting to hear your story. Wow, that old chestnut of when you aren’t looking you meet someone. I hope that you are happy ❤️

Yes, I mean I’m not against meeting someone, I think I would just like that feeling of being content if it doesn’t happen, rather than the searching that comes with dating or OLD these days.
