There is supported living or if one is afraid one could maybe start of with having a care worker visit once a week to “check up on ya” help shop etc but that could be expensive or get a fsmily member to do the “checking up”.

Maybe you can find someone you would like to share home n living with.
Maybe you will find a partner or friend.

For those that have the money they could build a granny flat or apartment in shed.

Or could you live neighbours with your mum?
That could be nice.
You could check up on each other and be there for each other yet still have space from each other.

A house with wings and sections could be good for some.
Such as a common living room where family can meet and watch tv or socialise and eat and then appart from shared kitchen everyone has separate rooms and bathroom but even mini kitchens so they are all independent as such in their living but can still chose to socialise and also have some one near to ask for help, support etc if needed.

I really like living by my own but i would love n truly want to meet n move in with man/bf n then marry.

thanks for your reply zilija. I also want to find a bf and get married. I am thinking of leaving my mom’s house and getting a job in ny where there are more jews to socialize with.

I wouldn’t marry outside my faith.

I am just so afraid that even if I land a job I could for whatever reason lose it and then what? all my savings down the tube and old age comes and I would have nothing. I don’t have a pension plan or anything like that.

For me it’s the inability to drive that I’m having a hard time with. I feel so dependent on others, and judged by people who don’t know my situation. Hang in there <3

I love my mom dearly, but there is no way I’d live with her, and I know for a fact she feels the same.
Can’t have 2 Queens in a castle, that just wont do.
