How To Cope With Being Single & Childless?

A few of my friends & I are at the point in our lives where we really, really want marriage & kids. However, apparently it’s not our time for that stage yet. But it’s getting more and more frustrating for us to deal with–when we see all our other friends getting married and having babies. I’ve managed to find ways to get my ‘kid fix’ by volunteering and so forth. But, any suggestions on how not to be so down on being single? there just aren’t any prospects out there for any of us—at least none that live close by. so please don’t suggest online dating–we’ve all tried that and discovered that it’s not for us. we need people who we can actually see once in a while! Any help/tips are appreciated.

    The thing is when life thinks your ready then everything will fall in to place. It’s ridiculous to say that they aren’t any prospects out there for you because well there are. You just haven’t met them yet and vice versa. You can’t force things and at least you know that you are ready for this giant step in your life. Not many people do. So, don’t be down about being single. Just keep your eyes open. If this is something you really want try relocating. There are a lot of cities out there that are great for singles. If thats not possible just get out in your community more. Try speed dating, or find a matchmaker in your area. Good luck on your quest :)

    Volunteering for things that you are interested in would be your best bet. If you find someone doing the same thing, then you know that you both have important things in common with each other. It may not happen right off the bat, but give it time, and it probably will. Go to other places as well, like the zoo, or a child’s place, or anywhere that you really enjoy. Bars are not the place to find someone to settle down with. It will take time, but it will happen when it is time for it to. Don’t be too impatient with it.
