Is it Just Me

[hereigoagainonmyownn]

I'm in my late 50s, think I look OK for my age, well educated and can hold an interesting conversation.

I've been very independant and have only had one long term serious relationship for a few years. Since then I have dated men that seem to be on the rebound or don't want to commit for a few months. I know this is a common thing and yes I have joined social groups etc and not just relied on the apps.

I'm not looking all the time and have been content to be on my own

With Xmas coming up it makes me sad that I haven't had much "history" with anyone in a loving relationship. I feel like I'm the only one but know this can't be the case. Anyone else in the same boat? Or does this make me a bit odd

I'm about a decade younger than you and have only ever spent one Christmas Day with a partner, plus maybe half a dozen others when I was dating someone but it wasn't serious enough for us to spend Christmas together.

It just doesn't happen for some people, unfortunately.

I'm in my 50s. I did spend about 3 Cheistmases with a German boyfriend, in one if our countries or the other, but that's been it. My mother didn't do Christmas once Dad died (which was my late 20s, ) nor did my sister. So I've been the spare person with friends or with cousins, at least for lunch, and sometimes by myself. I quite like Christmas by myself every now and then.
