As you can probably guess from the title of this blog, I am in my thirties, and yes, I am single. Never would I have imagined that I would still be single at this age. I am not only single by definition of unmarried. I am single by definition of no relationship. Zero. And I’ve been this way for nearly 5 years now. It’s sad, really, especially since once upon a time I had given myself a timeline. That being said, I learned, NEVER give yourself a timeline on such things in life. EVER. It will haunt you until the day you have achieved said thing.
In my case, I am way behind schedule. How, you ask? Well, I once had a dream that I would get married at the tender age of 25 (it seemed like a good age—not too young, not too old) and would have my first child at 28. Now, I am in my thirties and am nowhere near either of those things. I’m not even close to being in a relationship! That is not to say that I haven’t been having my fun. There have been some casual dating since my last serious relationship, but I have been unfortunate in finding anyone worth holding on to. Luckily, I have some awesome friends to help me pass the time and make being single rather enjoyable. So for now, I guess, it’s Happy Dating!
