Are you afraid of dying alone? (Page 2)

[sage2021]

The guy was with was supposed to be my person so I wouldn't die alone but he died suddenly about a week ago. He was 4 years younger than me. He seemed to be pretty healthy. Two days before he died, he was telling me how good he felt for 65, and he was.
So, I guess I will be the one to die alone, all alone! Not by choice.

Everyone dies alone. Even the people in nursing homes, die alone. Getting married and having kids to not be alone is a bit weird to me. People can leave. Im the type of person that doesn’t rely on other people for happiness and not to be “lonely”. I also don’t want kids either even if i do find my soulmate and get married.

I think at a young age we all think we are immortal and thus don't care about that.
But the older we get the more the possibility becomes real.

And when you start losing friends and relatives who also died alone and see no one in tears at their funeral other than parents, it hits you hard.

Sometimes it's enough to rearrange your priorities

"Are I afraid of dying alone"

No not really, I've been single the whole of my adult life, I decided to be that why because of how society sees men as ultimately disposable, don't get me wrong, I've done my part to support my family, I've fed bathed and changed all of my nephews and nieces and most of my sisters, they are there if I need them. I have made provision for what will happen as I get older, and I will remain independent as long as possible, and when push comes to shove everyone dies alone.

I’m not afraid of dying alone. The thought of dying in a nursing home is terrifying, but hopefully I will be dead before I ever need one.
I don’t want or need romance. I don’t even really need friends.


I will live and die only for my beliefs and hobbies. A wife and kids are distractions.

This is all nonesense. Money is the only Thing that you should not die without. I have seen people who have many children dying alone. Money is ur only friend. If u have it then you will have many people around u on death bed. Greedy people but still u won't be alone. Money can buy loyalty too. People who r thankful for ur financial support and be with u. Money is everything

I'm not afraid of it, especially since there's a 99% chance it's GONNA happen but, I would PREFER not to! I have a feeling I'm gonna die in the house and it'll be a numbers of days or even weeks before someone finds me! And, when I'm dead, I'll have no one to pass on any of my things to! Everything will either get scrapped or sold.

I don’t know if afraid is the right word. It might turn into fear if I start getting up there. I’ve always assumed something would get me before that.
My grandmother is in assisted living and there are so many older people who are just wasting away alone. And this is the generation who had tons of kids. With the continuing trends of the last 40 years, the majority of people in these later generations will have no one at all.

We all die alone in the end. I don’t want my kids to see me shitting on myself. I’m not committing suicide but I’m going out with a bang but will not bring my family shame. And my kids are going to make a lot of money. They don’t know that though:

[rachel776]

it's kinda weird if you die with a room full of people because you die and then they all go and have lunch or something

No, my ex was cheater, abusive, manipulative, narcissist.

I choose “DYING ALONE” before I ever end up with someone like that again. I gained so much weight and was 100% miserable in the 4 years of being with him. I broke up in March and never looked back. I’ve never felt so alive.

but most men are good. just find them, not worry all are same

I don’t know. That experience traumatized me. And now my value will be gone because I’m about to be 25. Right? Why even try at 25…

[Anonymous]

To be honest, i myself can’t answer this. Speaking of death itself makes me feel uncomfortable let alone imagining if i were ever to be alone. But thinking of having people by my side would also make me feel uncomfortable to some extent.. I just hope if the time come, whatever the scenario is, it is something that i feel ok with

[KatiaK_1996]

I basically have no desire to ever date again or put myself out there. I’m just living my life. If I meet that person I do, If not then I’ll make a life that’s comfortable and packed with things I love to do.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I'm not because I have plenty of people who would gladly celebrate and such if anything were to ever happen to my parents. But I'd probably be sad if I didn't get to experience being with a partner, among a few other things.

[havingfun2023]

I'm quite happy with my single lifestyle and reaching my 30s, I think I decided a whole while back that, I'd rather just be single and enjoy my future decades merrily my style. Offspring or in-laws just never focused into vision 👀👀😋🙂😊

[ShesRad80]

not at all

[Bricealan]

@ShesRad80 You go girl!!!

[ShesRad80]

@Bricealan ✌😎💕🏴‍☠️

[Miristheiss]

No, not really.

I have a wife. I have 2 kids. I actually relish the time I'm alone and I've got a bit of alone time with no noise or no one bugging me.

Dying alone isn't anything I really think about.

[BabyGirl_Tric]

Damn! I am NOT liking this platform! I posted a lengthy response and it said it was too long so I shortened it and the send button was gray with no explanation as to why so I refreshed the page and now it’s gone! I’m so pissed! It’s 4a and I stayed awake to “compose” that…. So annoying.

[catarecute]

some people think having a partner means they will not die alone but i read a story where this girl dumbed her husband when he was diagnosed with brain cancer.

[Anonymous]

I have no friends and the only family I have is my baby who isn't even 12 months old. I've always been a loner in life and the one no one liked, let alone loved. So no I'm not scared of dying alone. I'm kind of prepared for it.

[Asker]

I plan on being a single mom too

[Bricealan]

Chin up, sweet pea.
