I don't live "alone" however life circumstances made Me a Widower at age 43 raising a 12 year old son and 11 year daughter. My Son is now 19 which leaves Me with My daughter. If alone can be defined as living life without your best friend, lover, Wife, and Mother of Your children then yes I have been living alone for the past 7 years. It's lonely. Knowing the fact Our children lost Their Mother I am of the belief and have come to know that the pain and grief They suffered is completely different than that which I did. So, yes, notwithstanding minimal interaction in a teenager's life I guess I am living alone.
