Single girls, sound off!

Hi Val,

Clap !

Interesting subject at least to us singletons. I grew up really enjoying the freedom of being single, didn't marry till late - and loved that too.

I've been on my own again a fair while now. But my very best friends live in the small place I've finally found my way to a couple of years ago.  Also my godson and his family, so I have keys to two houses, and similarly two lots of people have my keys, so they could just drop in any time in theory. It's a neighbourly type of place. People know of you, even if they don't actually know you especially if you're seen around, e.g. as a dog walker (I look after two different dogs once in a while - today I've got both!). Being the time of year I've been giving, and accepting back garden vegetables, so there's always a possibility of a knock on the door, or a call over the garden fence.

The 'kids' are adult now with their own families, but they still find their way to stay here a couple of times a year (well, covid ... ) and one has trained me up on video calls - she and her baby daughter live abroad, so its a great option to see the baby grow, but I can't always predict when she calls. I think a bra strap or some such might have sneaked out at times.

So what I'm saying is that there's more to living alone than being alone. In fact I'm realising that like a lot of girls here absolutely need to do, I might need to plan better for guaranteed periods of uninterrupted Marti time. As it is I'm low key'ing it most of the time, and in a sense both training myself up, and also neighbours, by pushing boundaries a bit as I go around. If I answer the door in a skirt, well it's my house is my attitude, and it's not as if a sarong is much different anyway blah, blah. If people like you anyway, they're going to be a lot more accepting of you.

Would I want to get involved with someone again? If things turned out that way, I wouldn't mind at all. But it probably ain't gonna happen, especially at my age.  I know  cd'ing would be a deal breaker for me - if they couldn't accept that, well, what would be the point? (oh, and my love of exotic tobacco too!)

As to the state of my house ? That's a swipe left!

Thanks Val, I've enjoyed trying to think this through.

I do believe I am committed to being single, and it really doesn't bother me most of the time.

In the past, I have lived with and been exclusive to two men.  Both relationships lasted for just over a year before circumstances brought them to an end.  The first ended by my own choice as he was trying to fundamentally change who I was.  The other was ended due to outside influences and pressure from his adult children.  Details upon request.

For the last several years I have remained single, but am far from celibate.  I currently date two very dear male friends and things work very well for the 3 of us.  We are safe and sane about things and keep a very open mind and attitude about things.  After so many years and so much promiscuous behavior, it is good to have my life as it is now.  If one of them were to ask to go for that next big step together,  there is a big, firm maybe waiting for the question.

Yes, I definitely do better on my own! 🙂

Indeed, to each his own - I'm convinced the single life is best for me.

👏👏👏

Never married, only engaged once...single my whole life Val.  I loved the freedom when younger, but - for myself anyway - being unfettered loses its appeal as you get older.  I probably would have  been better off in a relationship that kept me grounded and focused.

Having said that I do appreciate the freedom I always had to be me and to wear what I want when I want! 🙂

Safe and Sane thats a good combination lol

Married young, right out of college, so never had a chance to enjoy much single life then. work, work, work 7 days a week at times. cut back on work when kids started arriving.The marriage ended after 14 years, mostly due to meddling in laws and their cultish "religion"(JW). nothing to do with CDing, she never knew.
been unmarried ever since, with a string of girlfriends, but the only one I wanted to marry cheated and then dumped me.I try dating every now and then these days, but the women interested in me do not interest me, and the ones I desire are out of my league or married.
so I content myself with the advantages of being single: basically do what I want, when I want.something to be said for that, especially if one's CD.

Have been single my whole life but have had live in male lovers over the years. I can do and be what I want however I feel for the day and have lots of friends to stay busy. There are the occasional holidays that loneliness can set in now that I am alone again but have no regrets.

I've been single a LONG time! Good part is I can walk around my house wearing anything I want:)

I've never married or been engaged and have no children. I had one relationship that lasted just over a year where we lived together - the rest have just been a series of flings. It really doesn't bother me being single - I'm so used to being on my own, doing what I want, going where I want and not having to worry about upsetting my other half. It may be some peoples idea of hell but for me it is perfect. As for my cross dressing, it means I can do that whenever I like - which is most days now. If I could do it all again I'd do it exactly the same apart from one thing - start cross dressing a lot earlier in life.

I was married twice, the first was a long disaster in my mind, the 2nd was amazing but no crossdressing. She passed 5 years ago and I have no desire to get married again and actually enjoy being on my own, dressed in female clothes 24/7, unless I absolutely HAVE to wear drab. I am closeted to the family but since most of them live far overseas, I generally have all day, all week mostly to myself.  I like it!

Hello...

Happily single for ten years now and loving it. Simply not interested in sharing....

Where i work, we are a small tight knit team....they are all the " family " I need during my working hours....so when I get home or have time off, i am in my haven/heaven.🤣

Things everywhere in my flat show that a woman obviously lives there...and I don't care.  Nobody to hide from and nobody to impress.

Everything is where I left it, including my peanut butter kitkats....and the TV remote😂😂.

I dress how I want, do what I want and come and go as I please...living my dream.

All you girls with partners, understanding or not, good luck to you....but this girl flies solo....

Grace ❤️ ❤️

I don't think they make enough to supply me...and export them as well...😂🤣
