Who never got married and is single with no kids living a fulfilling life?

I ask this because I think I am destined to be single for life. I am not saying this for sympathy but rather I feel like that may be my path and I just wanted to know if theres people out their like me who are like this or may feel this way

But I know of many people who've never married or had kids, and the majority have had immensely fulfilling lives.

Some are well known, like Germaine Greer. She loves to be contentious and she's not everybody's cup of tea - but she was extremely successful as a feminist and a professor of English literature. I've met her. She's not the happiest of people but she has has no regrets about her choices. Nowadays, she's helping with a few environmental projects.

I think fulfillment is not necessarily about following traditional roles and expectations.
It's about making the best of your talents, personal growth as a human being, and making some kind of positive contribution to the world around us.
There are infinite ways to achieve this, and all are worthy.

@hartfire Thank you so much for this insight! :) Yea, I think women at my age heading for their 30s start freaking out if they are not in a committed relationship. I am not freaking out which is strange I guess for many even by men who may be interested in m, I am like if it works cool if not cool to
