😢 Sad sad and sad

How about being single and unavailable for a while? Why not content too? ;) Time to be your own Queen and take better care of yourself in all senses - there must be things you never got time or courage to do before in life. These alone moments are actually a golden period - use it in your favor to focus and grow in the direction you want. Start by the small pebbles and you'll move the mountain. Dare to fail while learning something new. Dare to love yourself. When you've learned more about yourself, you will value yourself more ane you will see that being single gives you this sense of freedom that will allow you to focus on your goals. We are social beings but some alone time is actually healthy to cope with life and improve in different areas. If you take the time and space you need to heal and grow,your next relationship will start on healthier emotional grounds. All the best :)

It is like that too when you are in a relationship, you always come last

I’ve noticed that my family has no pictures of me hanging up in their house because I never got married or have kids. It hurts a little

It's true. Sometimes I feel that society is just one big couple's club. Those of us who are single/divorced are always on the outside looking in.

It's hard to find a balance, but try anyway. Find what makes you happy. Focus on you. Being single can give a lot of discoveries. You're still complete and capable even without a man. When the right one comes complete on his own too, that's when magic could happen. Because you and him will be each other's treasure. You could want each other and there's lightness in being with someone because you want them around, not becaude you need them.

Time to make You, priority

Well, that is a great observation.

You feel like the odd woman out, it seems, and rightly so. I don't think that they intend to treat you as you've said, but yiu are just getting swept up imto the vortex of THEIR busy lives.

If that's what it feels like, extracting yourself/stepping back a little, and maybe even addressing it with those persons whom you think will listen might help. But, feeling as you do, it is wise to step back and to regain your own life, sense of self, etc.

You need to be your own advocate in this.

i know all to well what being single is like been single my whole life.

That's right. Been that way since eve bit that apple.

When I was single I did loads of stuff I wanted to.

Focus on you, you deserve it.

Yes

Self-love and aligning with one's true nature, trumps everything.

That hurts... seriously💔🥺

I hope my time comes soon
