Ask HN: How can we handle solo founder loneliness?
1•dabojula•1h ago
I'm a solo-founder bootstrapping a SaaS product. Hardest part is not having someone to share the pain with when the fan hit the belt.

You need either a spouse or a business partner.
A good spouse will cure the loneliness and help with your mental health but won't do much to help with business specific stressors. A business partner is the opposite.
When I say spouse I mean a lawful wedding. I don't mean a girl/boyfriend. The conditions change once you are financially locked together unless you have already been living together for 3-5+ years.
