Thanks for reading and for sharing your opinion.

I enjoy living alone, but your counsel that those of us who want to be partnered but keep attracting "bad" partners need to figure out what's going on and make some adjustments.

One of the great things about the 155 responses I've received to this piece is the many women who are happily partnered and say so.

That's just as valuable to know about as the fact that a woman can be happily single.
