Living alone is more expensive than for couples who
can divide the costs, share the resources.

Just the cost of basics can burn through money.  
A couple get discounts, single people never do 
and we pay top dollar: An increasing issue.
So what do you do, downsize?




I finally got rid of more stuff, 
I put my work chair up for sale,  and
 it sold in minutes. 
Another piece of the jigsaw. Then sold a 
floor lamp. 
I'm letting go of stuff.
Too much stuff gives me anxiety
This is how I see it playing out. Increasingly 
it will be empty halls, clarity, the people 
just shadows and I want it to be formal.
The project now is to not-acquire things
although some things can be tempting.
No more stuff to impress
people, who deep down, don't like us.


 I think the emptiness signifies something
about me, which is uncomplexity. 
The advantage of being alone is I don't have 
to feel I'm in anyone's way, or have to debate 
about anything. There is a freedom.
 

 If I was in a sharing situation
 the other person could be too regimented. I'm
more mystical, or spiritual which
a regimented person does not like and could
lash out at me verbally. It could be dangerous for me.
Slow living too versus hasty living/ nervous wreck.
