Anyone else feels the same sometimes, especially ladies?!
Question: I know it will sound stupid, I'm gonna turn just 23 this year but still...
I feel like I'll never meet someone I will love and start a family with. I've never had a boyfriend. There were 3 guys I like, one didn't like me back, the other two did but they live in different countries. Lately I cry and feel empty everytime I get a wedding invitation, see celebrities around my age having babies, hear love stories and all.
Anyone else feel the same?

Cheer up. I'm older than you and I'm not married and I have no children. It will all come to you when you aren't looking. That's at least what they say anyway. Remember to that unfortunately a good percentage of people that get married at about your age give or take a few years....end in divorce. Have fun, find yourself and who you are. It will happen when the time is right. I also hear at times to people wish that they hadn't gotten married so young. I guess people always want what they don't have. Chin up....
I will be 23 in just about 2 weeks and I feel the same way. I have had a boyfriend though. For the past 7 years. But still I feel we are in a circle in the relationship and it isn't going anywhere. I know what you mean about the invitations and having kids.
It really does hurt and gets depressing but then again you don't want kids without a decent man or better yet, husband, in your life. Also alot of people are getting married and have kids but we are still very young. I think about it alot and get upset but I try my hardest to change my point of view and think about how lucky I am to have other things in my life and know that I am still young. I am a nanny and I CAN'T WAIT to have kids of my own but I am still young and want to do alot of things before I have the responsibility of my own children.
Just keep your head up. You aren't alone in the situation at all. I'm here along with a ton of others I'm sure. Keep smiling. Don't let it keep you down or you'll never find someone when your depressed!
that's not stupid
be more confident in yourself
don't let losers who weren't worth it keep you down
yup
I got rejected by a guy yesterday
it's all good
cause I know what I want anyway and I know I'll get it someday so instead of walking in a room with tears down my face I'm gonna be happy that now I know he doesn't like me so an even better guy can see what I'm worth
I feel EXACTLY the same! I just got ditched by a guy i really really liked and I just feel like nothing good is ever gonna happen for me...
But then again, I think we need to take a look at ourselves and get some self esteem eh?
I felt that way until my 30s! All of a sudden I started living in the moment and stopped longing for something I didn't have. I heard it called living in your "Season". Right now this is your being single "season". You should embrace it!
It's kinda like watching a pot of water boil....If you stand there and wait it takes forever...but if you occupy yourself before you know it the water is boiling....
Basically, start thinking about what you can do right now that will make you happy (not including wanting a relationship)...but stuff like. Looking forward to this summer and plan a vacation with some friends or family. Plan a garden! Spring is coming soon...Re-arrange your furniture...Get a new hair style. Start a small company...like pet sitting/walking... I think you get it... you will be so occupied with these things ...Next thing you know...the guy of your dreams will just appear out of no where... and chances are he will notice you before you notice him....
Otherwise if you don't give yourself a chance to live in your season and learn about yourself and grow, you might end up settling for the first guy that looks at you and he could be a complete jerk.. Then where are you?? I'm not saying you shouldn't date....Gosh no...How are you going to find out what kind of guy you like? Just don't go hog wild and give you heart to the first guy!
Good luck...remember you have the rest of your life to be married with a family....but only once to be single and free..
I am a Guy.
But i do understand what you must be thinking. I am in the same boat, but I don't cry or get depressed because I have other more important things going.
The best thing to do is concider yourself lucky that you are getting time in which you are becomming more mature as to understand what you want and what you don't.
Also , I hope that you will be in a position to see the reality and not only the romantic fantacy part of a relationship.
You are alright and I Sincerely hope that you get a guy who will respect you as a person and who can be the only one in your life.
