Why the Single Life?

 I never in my wildest dreams believed that I would cross the thresholds of 30 and still be unmarried. Gosh! I've been single like forever!

Growing up, I always envisioned myself as a capable wife and mother, trashing issues as they come to the admiration of a loving husband. So how did I get here?

What's the problem? I'm beautiful!

In my twenties, I was considered a beautiful girl. My, I never lacked guys asking me out! Even now I look way younger and am still hit on regularly.

Why can't I be like other women and date a man, love him and marry him? Why does it have to be so complicated? Why can't I feel any connection to anyone?

Why do I feel left out?

Most of my friends are married, separated, divorced or cohabiting. Why do I seem to be the odd one out? Why do I keep explaining why I'm just still dating?

The singles' life is not all unsatisfying I must confess. I don't envy my friends a whole lot of times. Some rushed into marriage so as not to be pitied and they do regret it. Oh, every day they do.

Let's have fun while it lasts or never ends

While we are single, we got to enjoy every minute of it. Let me stop this pity- paty. I got myself to worry about only. No responsibilities for now. Yeah, I might still get married, I still got my life ahead of me.


Single Ladies and gentlemen, Life is short! We're gonna enjoy every minute of it. Being single is certainly not a disease. We are in this together for now. I tell you about me and you tell me about you.


We are in this together. Show support!

We are going to walk along this path, together. Holding hands, walking along with this happiness and confidence to anticipate whatever is at the other side of the door for us.

So guys, take my hand, We are up for an exciting if bumpy ride. We will have adventures and share experiences.

I'm Helen and I'm presently single.
