Since most of the people who would read this have a significant other this probably isn't a post for you. For the few who do not have a mate . . .
Do you ever feel like you're the only single person on the face of the earth? Almost every single one of my friends is dating/engaged/married/ has kids. I feel so left out. Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm not the only single person around. It feels like it though.
Most of the time I'm fine with it. I have a great family & amazing friends! I love the people in my life with everything in me. But there are those times when I wonder why I am the only one who doesn't have someone special in their life. And yes, I feel sorry for myself.
I'm getting old. Today my dad said, "You're gonna be an old maid." I'm aware that he was kidding but there's a grain of truth to it. How many people meet someone & get married at my age? Not many. By my age most people are marred or at least have met the person they will marry. I've never even had a freakin' boyfriend!
And I really want kids. I have always loved kids. I've always pictured myself as a mother. At this point there are some factors in my way . . . a lack of male companion is one. I'm missing the job that helps pay for said children too. Thank GOD for my friends kids, they temporarily fill the void.
The summation is this . . . I'm feeling sorry for myself.
P.S. Yes I've tried online dating & it is NOT for me.
xoxo
