Work: being respected professional, promotion, winning hackathon recently et.c
Sports: I started snowboarding and already good for noob.
Fitness: gym almost daily focusing on cardio. Eating healthy, cooking. I lost some weight and look much younger than couple years ago.
Casual hiking (with strangers or friends).
Writing a novel.
Traveling and learning languages (lived in two foreign countries in the last two years, been to more foreign cities that in all my previous life combined).
I actually have now money for myself and do some investing.

Technically I’m still married, but living separately from wife, in different countries. My life improved drastically, although I was depressed in the beginning and thought I made a wrong choice.
I lived like a hobo. Everything i owned fit in a backpack or the trunk of my car, id go somewhere, find some temp work and short term sublet or a job that offered lodging, hang out, meet people, party til I got bored, then move on to the next place I wanna check out
Its nice, when your only responsibility is taking care of yourself, you can live your life traveling around doing whateber without needing much money or a plan or anything. I lived on the beaches of San Diego working hostels, I lived in fancy resorts in Aspen while working ski lodges, I been to Mexico and Thailand teaching English. Very free time of life.
I grow things, cook and bake, go to language classes (I live abroad), work, travel, go out with friends, read, take the occasional nap, volunteer, and go to bed when I like.
I just don’t have a hell of a lot of room in my life for a partner, and won’t ever marry again, so why not just enjoy things?
I wake up, have a shower, make a coffee in my moka pot, log on to work (or head to office if there) and do my shift, taking a walk at lunch and making myself something to eat. I spend my evenings doing whatever takes my fancy.
It would be improved by meeting the right partner but only made worse by the wrong partner.
Money, pets, hobbies, outdoor activities and volunteer work. I’m not the greatest at cooking but I can do well enough to eat healthy without depending on outside help. A lot of solo adventures during my free time.
Makes me think, outside the biological and social desire to couple, what’s even the purpose, what’s the benefit to commit? Yeah it feels good to have someone, but is there any tangible benefits? And not theoretical, I know what a woman can do in a relationship, but speaking of what they typically do these days. And I know a lot of women feel the exact same way, if not more commonly, and it’s not like I blame them. We, at least in the west have become pretty damn lazy, and entitled and it seems a good woman can never find a good man and vice versa. We have a lot of people thinking they’re good when they not. More often than not you see it where one person is carrying the whole load, why? It is getting to or has gotten to the point where the only thing a lot of people offer is sex.
I’m genuinely happy single…but now I’m married to a woman that is a partner. Being happy single meant I wouldn’t have given it up for anything other than exceptional, and I found that.
I’m currently a truck driver. I can be away from home as long as a want and go where ever I want without having to worry about anybody back home. I can also sleep around while on the road so that’s fun. A lot of married and single truckers have told me that being single is the best thing to be in this industry.
I leave work, have a few hours for video games and/or the gym. I enjoy my hobbies on the weekend alone sometimes or I’ll hang out with friends, go to the movies, out to eat, random events/shows. It’s a good life.
50 and divorced here, it’s amazing. Nobody nagging at me to do this or that. If I wanna spend all day Sunday doing absolutely nothing, I can. And I couldn’t tell you the last time I watched a chick flick.
I wasn’t genuinely happy when I was single, but I enjoyed the peace and freedom a lot. Eventually a woman came into my life that offered me more happiness than I could provide myself.

I have money. Lol
I do what I want, when I want – within reason
Monday – Thursday, work, gym, a lunch/dinner out solo or with friends
Friday-Sunday – two of those days will usually have plans, one day solely to myself
As many holidays as I can get in – whether domestic or international
Homeowner
In my thirties
Life is good – I love it
I have the freedom to do what I want with my life and make decisions without discussions why or why not.

No kids, no partners, no rules but your own

I do what I love to do and I get paid for it. My mother is very proud.
Free. No responsibility or obligations, except to myself.

More exciting, interesting, varied, healthy, fun and adventurous than when I was married.
I’m living my life to the best in Thailand. Eat, swim, travel, make love, and smile.
