Re: The truth about living alone in France
There are a lot of people who love cats, dogs and gardening, but I agree, finding one that would be compatible would be difficult. Are there senior centers or places people gather where you post a notice, using a temporary e-mail address, so you could start the vetting process...??? Just an idea.....Re: The truth about living alone in France

Re: The truth about living alone in France
Agree, Dogsey a good idea. You'd probably need a sort of questionnaire to weed out obviously incompatible types; i.e. if you're a lark and they're an owl, if you're a neat housekeeper and they're more the relaxed type, hip-hop music fan if you like opera ... you get the idea. Then if someone seemed suitable and was interested, go on from there ..... sharing your house with someone would be a really big step. And of course if it got to a certain point, do an online search of the person.Re: The truth about living alone in France
Well, I would.Re: The truth about living alone in France
Sharing can be hazardous but it can have greater rewards if the right person is found.Re: The truth about living alone in France
Sorry to hear of your dilemma Fleur - it must be hard for you now. My wife and I were originally planning to go and live in Spain or France but thanks to my losing my job in 2008 and nothing around now all thoughts of living overseas have gone now. The exchange rate's a disaster too now. I'm about to lose this job in two days so it's getting worse daily!!Re: The truth about living alone in France
Hi there,Re: The truth about living alone in France
You sound a little more cheerful now Fleur. Good!! I'm so glad!! I've been made redundant 5 times ; I got redundancy money only three times and it wasn't much. I'd rather have still had the job with the last one - the French company. I enjoyed that job more than anything I did before, except perhaps the BBC.
