    I've spent many Christmases alone. It's not so bad. I enjoyed a good dinner, movies and shows, and peace.

    I CHOOSE to spend Christmas on my own. Point blank refuse to buy into the commercial crock it's turned in to.

    I live in the UK. After the death of my partner in 2018 I am more than content to spend Christmas alone. I still celebrate it as I always did. Tree up by December 1st and a full 12 days of celebration with my traditional home cooking and lots of fine wines plus a really good Port and lots of classic festive TV and films. I never feel sad because life goes on and I would rather embrace my continued good health and honour the memory of those no longer here, than mope alone. Life is for living. Merry Christmas!🎄☃️👍

    The baby boomers rejection of Christianity is manifesting in so many ways. The normalisation of divorce and single parenting, and the lack of virtuous women to marry has made the family occasion of Christmas something of a bygone era.

    I'm alone this Christmas. Got the turkey and trims and Xmas pud brandy butter. Good films on the TV an no noise or fuss, no politics, no dramas. The worst aspect is I'll have to cook as well as washing up, but I know I'll be gratefull as hell. Better than sitting around with a roomful of people on their mobiles😅

      I'm in a similar situation,I got salmon instead of turkey ,have films picked out ,a nature walk planned,I don't even want to be disturbed by people now😂
      I'm actually thinking of leaving the breakfast delf in the sink,until dinner is cooked,and washing all delf at once instead of constantly washing delf throughout the day,😃
      Have a good one🎊🕯️👍
