Line Andersen opens up about single life:

Some time ago, journalist and former NRK sports commentator, Line Andersen (50), became single after a 20-year relationship.

This week she guested on the podcast “Høvla øve” with presenter Martha Leivestad (30), and lifted the veil on her new life.

– There has been a dramatic change. You get out, and it’s as if a part of you is missing, and you have to find it again. I had to be repaired and find myself, she says in the episode.

Andersen did not hide that at first it felt both exciting and scary.

– It was extremely sad at first. I was totally devastated, and the world came crashing down. I hadn’t brought in my own soda for 20 years. The first thing that struck me was that now I have to have fun, and I looked for a long time for the key to that, she continues.

At last she just found the “key”. It would turn out to be attitude, priorities, physical activity – and sex.

The 50-year-old decided that life was going to be so much fun, that there was only room for one person on a permanent basis if he could top how well she was already doing alone.

About the dating market, Andersen says that today she has both fun and “activity” as a single person, and that she has come to know a new side of her sexuality.

– The age range has been far too large, I have decreased in age far too much sometimes. Frighteningly far down, in the desperate first year as a single, she laughs.

However, she stays away from Tinder and similar apps, and explains that for now she sticks to the “old-fashioned” way of getting in touch with new people.

Dagbladet has been in contact with Line Andersen, who does not wish to comment on the matter.
