BellaOnline Forums Relationships Married No Kids WISH I wanted kids!

Jen, I'm sure everyone here ( and I bet everyone else ) has, at some point thought they would never find a partner again.

It's natural and it doesn't matter wether you're 20 or 70, there are a huge amount of people out there looking for love / friendship.

I would say, don't stress so much about the 'no kids' thing with a new relationship, or even friendships.
I know it's a cliche, but you normally find someone when you're not looking too hard, and they are definately out there.
It sounds like you're a bit down at the moment, and have you noticed, at those times in your life, all you see around you are happy families, and couples in love?
The reality , as we know, is far from the truth, so I would say, enjoy having time to yourself, too, and get out and about, doing things that make you happy.
I'm sure in the not too distant future you'll be telling us about someone you've met.
And we'll be here to give you lots of encouragement !

Live long and prosper . ( sorry,couldn't help myself, I'm a trekkie, don't hold that aginst me..... X )

Thank you for the support Gaynor! It's appreciated but I'm sorry I gave the impression I was down, I'm actually not. I didn't mean to mislead anyone. I don't really see happy families and couples quite the opposite, I see more sad ones than I do actual happy ones (except my parents). I'm quite happy being single but I wouldn't mind later on finding someone to share things with. Right now I want to go to attempt to go to college, I didn't go straight into college after high school because I was working. I'm unemployed now, figured someone, somewhere is telling me I should consider a career at this point in my life. So I figure that's what I'll do. Thank you again for the advice Gaynor, I'm glad that everyone in this forum is so nice. Thank you again =D

Ah Jennifer, going to college may just be the thing for meeting someone. I don't specifically mean a love interest, just that broadening your horizons of the type of people you meet may well lead to something further down the line.

Just FYI, my 'aunt' (we consider her to be part of the family as much as anyone else but actually she was my mum's best friend throughout school) just met her first love at 60! Not that you'll have to wait that long but it goes to show that when the time is right it doesn't matter what the time is it will happen. She's married now (a year later) and he is fantastic and is also now part of the family.
