Not feeling lonely is very normal. It sounds to me as if you are getting in touch with your HP and reconnecting with yourself? If so, good for you. When I first separated from my abusive husband, I didn't feel lonely either. I felt joyful. I was free. You are free, too!!!!! Keep going with whatever you've been doing. It's working, joker.

It's been 4 months now since I have seen my alcoholic ex-bf, that was violent toward me. He remains in jail for abusing me. I am today, so grateful to be free of the insanity. I am now living alone and loving each day and I feel no sense of lonlyiness. Is that normal? I do not feel the need for another relationship, or the need to date. I feel complete. I have been in therapy and that has helped me a lot. I feel like a different person, stronger and happier. I have been reading the message board and that helps me a lot. I am just so grateful for all the messages of hope. I am still a work in progress and have work to do on me. I am learning to keep the focus on me and me only!
It sounds like you are in a good place- serenity. When I was in similar circumstances, I felt a tremendous sense of relief. Keep coming back and working the program!
I am glad you are here. I have been divorced 2 years from the exAH and I dated at first, but am now serene alone and more able to do all that I want to do. I have school, work and my kids to keep me more than busy, on top of the fact I like to work out and have hobbies I like to do alone. So not feeling like a lonesome lonley loner is new to me not being in a relationship, but feeling whole is priceless! Thank God for al-anon!!! Great post!
