I hate myself for saying this...but I'll turn 35 in sept and it hit me..?

but...if feels really sad not to have a man in my life who cares about me...someone to wish me happy birthday..bring flowers and balloons. I come home to an empty apt everyday and everynight. single kitchen with single dishes and cups. maybe i'm in a funk tonight but i just had to see if anyone has ever felt like this. maybe i'll go have a drink.

Yep, I know all too well what you're talking about.



When I was a few months short of becoming 36, I met the love of my life. We are now married.



Have faith, there's someone out there for you, you just haven't found him yet.
Reply:Can I tell you something?



If you had been married for, say, 5 years now...you would be BORED out of your mind. And complaining about doing a bunch of dishes. And upset because your husband is on the couch watching sports ands won't talk. And having sex once a week, the same ol' thing every time.



And you'd be DYING to go out with your single friends and be looked at again. And you would kill for time for yourself!!



Trust me, like Chris Rock says..."Ain't nobody happy anywhere!"... :)



Married life is WAY overrated. Not that different if you were in a serious relationship, really. Be happy you can play the field!!
Reply:I hear ya loud and clear. However I am perfectly content being single. Sometimes, like on special occassions I do feel the way you are feeling, it's hard not to.....holidays and birthdays are reminders that there is someone missing from our lives. But they are the exceptions, not the everyday living rule. I honestly enjoy my independence and whenever I feel the urge to co-habitate, I either call or spend some time with one of my unhappily married friends. Works every time. Sadly, the majority of my friends envy my singleness and this cheers me up. And if that didn't work....please remember this......a man cannot provide happiness until you have within you ...... and that's the truth. Have a happy birthday!!

Reply:Man, no man - either way turning 35 SUCKS !!! Go have a drink or two. Maybe you'll get lucky and some college kid will hit on you and make your week.
Reply:Its not your fault sista. All the eligible bachelors are either gay or incarcerated or drugged out. What can you do?
Reply:Think about it,You could be coming home to a man that abuses you or lies to you or just ignores the hell outta you.Just be thankful your alive and well
Reply:Go out and meet people .. Live life, go to clubs and pubs and party ! I'm sure Mr. Perfect is lyinq in wait for you somewhere in this cold, harsh world.. but hey .. Love just doesn't fall in our laps.. we have to work at it.. nothinq worth havinq comes cheap.



Take care and Good Luck ! =)
Reply:thank god you still look stunning at 35 dont worry dont ever put down your self what you need to do is to think positive thoughts and make it your goal from today that you are ready to date and start going out to nightclubs i am sure there might be so many guys wanting to date you but if you keep sending out negative vibes you will receive negative responses so you need to let go have fun and in no time you will have a boy friend to celebrate with you guaranteed ,,,,,,,,also you can try online dating sites like veggiedate.com you may find some cool guy there you dont have to be a vegan to meet exciting guys give it a try.....
Reply:You can try some dating sources. My sister met her husband online.



Lets do lunch (i think thats right) sets up professionals for lunch dates. :)



Do activities that you like. If you play soccer- join a co-ed soccer team. etc.



There is nothing wrong with the way you feel -either the funk or wanting a mate. Both are perfectly natural. Just dont put out that desperate vibe. Enjoy you life- but also improve your chances. :)



good luck
Reply:If you're that lonely, did you ever think of trying an online dating service? There are a few out there that are free, sometimes they work for people, maybe it'll help you.
Reply:Dont feel bad about being 35 and single. Try getting the CD of "Sex and the City" and watch it, you'll see you will definitely feel good after that. Have friends around, spend time with them, your family can help as well. But if they are not around go out and explore. Sooner or later you will find your man just dont push it. Single people feel bad at times but just imagine what is the feeling of those married women who are going through the agony of getting a divorce because they had a failed marriage. Good for you, you have less responsibilities so enjoy it.
Reply:Theres somebody out there for everybody
Reply:I am looking forward to release.
