Why should I go on?

My long-distance boyfriend of 4 years dumped me a few months ago with no explanation. I can't see any reason to go on. I am over 60, not the best in looks, haven't got a great financial situation (not broke but not affluent, either), and have no idea what to do with my future now that he's not in it. No kids, no one really to go on for. Very hard for me to find anything that I feel positive about or want to do. Any suggestions?

    Never wrap up all your happiness in a man, ever. You need to be happy with yourself which also includes being alone.

    I am divorced and happier than I have ever been in my life. I have sex with whoever I want and go to the next guy when I get bored with the last one. Living alone is wonderful. It's never lonely for me, not even for a minute. I have cats who hang on me all day anyway it's impossible to get lonely.

    Get yourself a rescue dog from the shelter. Take on an ENTIRE self improvement lifestyle. Eat healthy (vegan) and work out. Get our body in phenomenal shape. Be single and mingle with as many guys as you want and be blissfully happy living alone and FREE as the strong b*tch you are!

    Don't give up. For every door that closes another one opens.
