Do you feel lonely staying alone?

I love living alone!

I lived at home with my parents until I was in my 40s.  I was working a part time job when I was younger, and paying for college, so I wasn't able to afford being on my own.

Then I moved to a full time job, but still wasn't making enough money to move out.  I stayed there for the medical benefits.  Then, when I was finally making a decent salary, the travel bug hit, and I ended up seeing 6 different countries and 20 different states.  Because money was going to travel, I was still living at home.  Yes, unusual for someone my age, but I have not regrets about that, I have great memories of my travels.

Finally, the time came when I wanted my own space, and I had enough money saved up that I was able to make my move on my own.  After all those years of spending time around people, I was very happy to have my own space.

Thank you for your reply @CellarDweller

Sorry, hope you don't mind me asking. Which countries have you been to before?
