I’m 40 years old single and never married. I retired when i was 37 (early retirement). I’ve been through some serious relationship. Pero totoo ang sinabi ni Tom Hardy “Being alone for a while is dangerous. Its addicting, Once you see how peaceful it is, you dont want to deal with people anymore” I’m single, happy and confident sa buhay. Only introverts will understand. Happy Valentines everybody 🎉.

As an introvert, I love doing things alone. I'm happy and contented alone. I don't want to inconvenience other people when I can do everything on my own. Although I like hanging out also sometimes with my "real' friends.

No one pursued me. So instead of being bitter, I am doing my best to be better. You can't force anyone to love you, you'll just be crushed if you try to convince someone of your value.

Ye, possible maging masaya kung single, I watch movies in the cinemas alone, I go to the bar alone, I go to concerts alone and meet new people, that is the joy of it ❤❤❤ Do not be scared to be alone, we were born alone and we will go from this world alone so enjoy it as you please 🥰🥳

Single blessedness is hpw you call it. I am 62 and single. There are times when I have been asked if I am not afraid of growing old by myself. Staying single is a choice and as you grow older napapaghandaan mo na ang tumanda ng mag-isa. But I have friends na hanggang sa pagtanda ay kasama ko pa din. I also have nephews and nieces who comes and visits me at home. Most of all I have God by my side who always keeps me company, spiritually. I am happy this way. 😊

I’m telling you, kung sino pa yong mga single yon pa yong mga may peace of mind at masaya. 🤭

Watching this on Single Awareness Day.

I'm 33 years old and single. I think it's because of my introversion, social anxiety, and too much responsibility na I chose to be single. Plus, masaya ako na laging mag-isa sa mga lakad. I love being single.

My neighbour is a 90 y.o. strong and cheery granny who has never been married or is single all her life. I'm turning 40 this year and the introverted me consider her as one of my chummies. That said, she looks very young for her age (per my judgment and this is relative of course, she looks only 60). Although she has had a hard life (worked as a cleaner and hotel chambermaid in the UK since the mid-60s), she never did any vices and never experienced the stresses of being in a marital relationship and having/raising kids. With all that's said, yes, you can be happy if you're single and though no man is an island, that doesn't mean the island has to be a partner or a wife/husband. The island can be in the form of a devoted friend or kin, or even pet.

Single here.. turning 34 this year.. still unbothered. I still have my parents and responsibilities as a breadwinner to take care of

Being single is a choice. YES we can be happy even if we are single. Nakadepende sa tao kung ano ang definition niya sa "HAPPY". I am 40, single and NBSB. There was a time na may pressure sa family at society, kasama na ang fear na tumanda nang mag-isa. But sa pagdaan na panahon malalampasan mo ang pressure at anxiety. Ang pagtanda mag-isa, mapaghahandaan. Being single is a God's gift. Sa hirap nang buhay ngayon at sa mahal nang bigas, gas at tuition mas mabuti ang maging single. " Ang buhay nang isang single ay kay saya."
I love being single.

Wag matakot maging alone. ang mahirap ay alone AND broke. lalo na sa pagtanda. kasi kung may pambayad ka sa services para mabuhay ALONE - well okay na rin - marami daramay. Pero pag broke duon mararamdaman ang pagiging ALONE. =(

[airwinserranoditianquin]

Kaway-kaway sa lahat ng single dyan...

[lyrikamikagami]

may mga tao na naghahanap ng validation na attractive sila using relationships

[CG-fncj]

Sarap maging single. Sanay nako manuod movie, eating alone, travel alone.

[truvslacson]

I'm 49 years old im a doctor but im enjoying my life as single. Hndi naman ako naghahanap ng partner kc may thought ako na hassle lng pag may jowa ka at ayaw ko ng nagpi-please lalo na sa sides ng magiging jowa mo, ang sarap talaga ng single walang problema.❤

[bouncersangel]

Technically he wasn’t alone, the crews are with him. If you’re single you can always spend it with friends or family you don’t have to be alone.

[warlasiwarlah]

Para sa isang taong single for more than 10 years at nabubuhay independently (family ko nasa US na) kayang kaya naman mabuhay mag isa in general. Pero di maiiwasang isipin at maramdaman na sana merong nakaka appreciate sa yo at taong makakatuwan, more on yung feeling na may taong pinili ka.

[Jowieljavier]

I've always dated myself. No drama and gastos then lately I've found out that I'm introverted I'm happy and enjoying my life.

[mariateresaterrado]
