A single woman in her 50s has revealed that she ‘can’t be arsed’ to find a man and is more ‘at peace’ being alone.

Nadiya Bekar hopes to live out the rest of her life completely solo.

The aesthetic practitioner ‘can’t imagine’ sharing her personal space again – and doesn’t think that will ever change, reports Need To Know.

In a clip, which has racked up 366,000 views and over 18,000 likes, she explains why.

“I’m 53, and I’m single, and I can’t really be arsed,” Nadiya, from Enfield, North London, said.

“And when I say I can’t be arsed, [I mean] I can’t be arsed with relationships.

“Actually, I’ve been single for just over a year, and it’s been the best year of my life.

“Literally, when I think about having a boyfriend and somebody living with me, I feel like I can’t be bothered.

“I’m not a man-hater, I love men.

“I don’t like living with them.

“Cannot be arsed to deal with anybody else’s moods, [or] have couple dinners – cannot be arsed to cook, cannot be arsed to clean for anybody else.

“I’m not interested in anybody’s baggage.

“When I get happy couples all cosy and warm on socials, I just think: ‘Ew, no.’

“Is there going to be a point where I’m feeling all lonely – is that going to happen?

“Because I feel like if it hasn’t happened by now, it’s probably not going to.”

Nadiya does note that her ideal man is Brad Pitt – but she doesn’t even want to pick up his pants.

Users have flocked to the comments to share their reactions.

“I love this. I’m so surprised by the negativity in the comments,” one person said.

Chris added: “Had that peace for 10 years then unexpectedly found the right person and apart-together set up that works for us 57. Never say never.”

“Preach,” Caroline added.

Elain commented: “Totally agree…got a dog instead, best trade ever.”

“You’ll get lonely eventually,” said Toby.

Nadiya recently revealed how she ‘forgot’ to have children due to her fast-paced life in the UK capital.

She said it only dawned on her when it was ‘too late’ – though she’s not alone, as the 53-year-old received an outpour of support from other women in the same position.
