My brother in christ, don't pretend to be concerned for our sakes. If you lot gave a shit about us not dying alone, it wouldn't be so common for ya'll to abandon your sick wives, that nurses have to be trained on how to counsel women diagnosed with breast cancer for the possibility. You wouldn't marry 19-21 year old women when you're in your thirties, knowing fully well that you've got at least a decade-long head start in life. I don't see any of you lining up en masse to volunteer at nursing homes to be companions to elderly women in hospice care.
In short, when they say "you're going to die alone" what they really mean is "don't let US die alone"
What they mean is "oh NO!!! A single childfree woman is going to die alone without anybody taking advantage of her emotional/financial/physical/etc resources!! There are men without women to take advantage of!!! Women being child(aka manfree depending) is a TRAVESTY!!!!!1!1!!"
Pure male projection. They fear themselves being old and alone , so they project that onto us. If they can convince us that it is US who will die old and alone, they can continue to use us for our resources. Males view women as resources, no different than a tool in their shed to build a house or mow the lawn. We are resources to males. But they literally need us to survive as well. But women don't need men to survive. So they have to convince us, otherwise THEY die old and alone.
And all the pickmes lambasting women for being single because "they can't keep a man", yet they're paranoid and always accusing you of having affairs with their partners
I don't care if I die alone. I'm a very friendly person and have enough confidence in myself to know that if I'm in a care facility when I die, I'll be loving life as I breathe my last breath. I will have chatted to the staff and got to know them, and I'll be in a good place. I'll have saved enough money and have been so well organised that I will be in a facility that allows pets, so my pooch will be with me. I have it all planned ladies. 🤣
If I die at home alone, well, my pooch can lick me until someone finds me. I'll be dead, I won't care. 🌹
We need to not be scared of dying alone - many, many people do. Scrotes are terrified of it because they can't be alone even in life. They can barely spend a few hours by themselves because when they stop and sit silently, the horrific reality of who they are and how awful their lives are starts to dawn on them.
Seriously. These days, men don't believe in "in sickness and in health" or "for better or for worse" AT ALL. We're replaceable to them, and their behavior reflects that. You nailed it.
Die alone? We ALL do. Do they really think it's like some Hollywood movie, where the man is tearfully clutching his dying woman's hand as she takes her last breath, crying out in pain when she's gone? PUH-LEASE!
Me, I am fine with croaking in my sleep, and having my sweet nephews be there for me as I approach the end. They are going to be HVM like the other men in my family. And if they end up being the only ones I know? Well, that's more than some will know!
Honestly I’m kind of looking forward to dying alone/living alone after having been through a marriage and dealing with the process of getting divorced and I’m only 22 so 🤷♀️
It’s not nearly as scary as men try to make it out to be and I just keep thinking about how at least I won’t have to have more sec I don’t want/get anything out of, I won’t have to baby someone’s feelings when they fuck shit up or don’t do things in the first place, I won’t ever have to play mommy again to a grown man, etc
Men threatening we'll die alone are just mad they don't get to be the ones to kill us.

While I do like the idea of getting married and having children (with the right man that is!!!), ever since I was like 12 or 13 I was always thinking about how awesome it is to live alone and just be able to do whatever I want whenever I want. Adopt a black cat (or more) and just enjoy my peace. That was also the time when I discovered the comic figure Emily the Strange. She embodies exactly that lmao. There are also four novels with her as the protagonist and it is revealed that in her family, in each generation there's a woman who has extraordinary abilities that are borderline magical, owns several cats and who never gets married. And when I was reading that as a teen I was just like that's so cool!
I actually do have a great aunt who never got married or kids and she turned almost 100 years old. I really liked her, she seemed cool and also pretty up to date for someone her age.
So however my life turns out, I'd be fine with either. I can fulfill my need to spoil a child by visiting my brother or my sister who both have children lol. I'm perfectly fine being the cool aunt. And I'm not saying this to cope or something, I'd actually be fine with either outcome. If I happen to get with a man who loves me and who I'm attracted to and who's fulfilling what I need in a relationship during a time when I can still have my own kids, that's nice, I can see myself in that motherly role. But if it's not happening and I maybe meet my match in my 50s or later, that's fine too. I'm flexible in that regard, but what I won't do is settle.
