cookiemonster26 Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Hmmm, I'm not really sure where to start. Basically I'm a 25 F. Literally EVERYONE around me is getting married and engaged, I barely know any single people and I have a large circle of friends/coworkers. I don't know why but it makes me feel really bad about myself, like I'm behind in life and inadequate because I'm single, doesn't help that people pity me for being single either. Thing is, I don't even want to date right now. Dating makes me miserable, however I would like to find someone one day. With that being said, I've tried everything, online dating, clubs, sports teams etc etc and literally never met ANYONE single and online was full of jerks(hence why I don't want to date and "put myself out there") Ive pretty much come to the conclusion that I will be alone forever , I guess I'm looking for tips on how to stay happy and positive when everyone around you is getting married aand you know you'll be alone forever.
Gloria25 Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 Dane Cook had a joke that seems to relate to this... He was like 'When you're not in love/a RL, it's like you're standing outside of a house and watching people in the house party...then, it even starts to rain on you. But, if you're one of the people actually inside that house - at the party, you're banging on the door yelling "LEMME OUT OF HERE"!!! So, you never know what goes on behind closed doors. Everyone has their issues/struggles - just cuz you see people eloping left and right and taking pretty pics in their little white dresssesessss...for all you know their husband - even before the marriage was (and probably still is) obsessing about another woman and almost slept with her. Not all that glitters is gold...and like Amy Winehouse's song for the SATC soundtrack - there's a lot of "fool's gold" out there - especially now a days where many people are clueless as to what marriage is all about. Maybe that's why one of the Ten Commandments has something to say about not coveting others or something like that - you'll drive yourself batty comparing your life to others. As long as "you" are happy and living the life you want...I think you'll be fine Chin up my dear 1
darkmoon Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 you must find fellow singles, you have no choice, if freinds upset you, just see less of them 1
Gloria25 Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 you must find fellow singles, you have no choice, if freinds upset you, just see less of them Agreed.... Not cuz there's anything wrong with your friends...but "birds of a feather". I do not seek out friendships with married people and/or people with kids cuz "what" do you actually have in common with them? When I first moved in my latest hood, people invited me over to chat and all that and I ignored their requests cuz come on...I'm single, no kids..what am I gonna do with them?
