British Foreigner Living in Asia: Why I Choose to Stay Single at 64.

Why am I single—and do I even want to change that? In this raw, darkly funny, and brutally honest episode of Bigg World Cinema, I unpack decades of relationships, cultural clashes, dating abroad, and the uncomfortable truth behind choosing freedom over conventional partnership. If you’ve ever felt judged for being single, pressured to “settle down,” or conflicted about long-term commitment, this one will hit home. This video is a personal, unfiltered reflection on love, loneliness, aging, and autonomy—from growing up with society’s expectations, to serial relationships in the UK, to dating across cultures in Asia. I share what worked, what failed, and why being alone isn’t the same as being lonely. It’s not a how-to dating guide—it’s a lived experience of navigating intimacy, independence, and self-awareness over a lifetime. What you’ll hear in this episode: Why society struggles to accept happily single people Long-term relationships vs. personal freedom Dating across cultures: UK, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Southeast Asia Age gaps, communication breakdowns, and cultural expectations Why solitude, space, and independence matter The difference between wanting companionship and fearing commitment Choosing a meaningful life without forcing a relationship Highlighted moments / chapters: 00:00 Why people are uncomfortable with single men 02:40 Early relationships & societal pressure 06:30 “The one that got away” 09:45 Dating burnout & choosing solitude 10:45 Moving to Asia & dating abroad 14:40 Communication issues & cultural clashes 17:30 Why some relationships are doomed early 18:50 Standards, boundaries & brutal honesty 30:30 Accepting being alone—but not lonely If you enjoy thoughtful travel storytelling, expat life reflections, or honest conversations about relationships, aging, and independence—subscribe, like the video, and share your perspective in the comments.
