Today, I heard some women bitch about a ‘friend’ of theirs being left behind on the shelf. I, for one, know many friends who are 40 and single, and living it up! I resented the fact that these women were stereo-typing people who were not married and making time to speculate about the reasons why. WHY? Can you imagine?! Could it possibly be, just POSSIBLY, that these women who are single, CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE to be single??? And may want to be forever single? Really. Despite what you think, not everyone wants the happy ever after with a man…..

Things people think if you are 40 and single:

“She missed her boat. It’s too late now. Nobody will want her.”

“There’s something wrong with her.”

“She’s a lesbian, didn’t you know?”

“She doesn’t want children. She hates children.”

“She’s always dating the wrong man. (married men included)”

“She must have had a really bad experience previously. She doesn’t trust men.”

“She doesn’t believe in that piece of paper.”

“She wants to continue being a slut.”

*YAWN*

Being single seems like a problem that needs solving! Single women are either too this or too that, not enough this, perhaps if they were like that……WTF?

There are as many advantages being single and free as there are being married with a family, and just because a woman does not have a life partner, doesn’t mean she is not loved. There is the love of family and friends. There is the love for herself. It is enough! The people who always feel that they don’t get enough love because of reasons ABCDE, will never get enough, because their attitudes are such. And then they impose their ideals on others just because they themselves are lacking.

If people are happy being single, let them be. Perhaps they just really know what they want in a partner and aren’t willing to settle for anything less. I know a Malaysian lady who has just found her life partner at 53 and got married recently. They are a very happy couple. I also know of single divorced and widowed mothers with children who have found life partners much later on and are very happy. And then single women who are happily getting on with life as single women, not at all searching for a life partner. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t! So what? There is so much more to life to savour, breathe, learn and live, than pining away for that other half to complete you.

Take time to smell the roses, and you won’t be bothering those single ladies anymore, for the wonders of what you may discover, may be enough to complete your soul……..just as some of those single women have discovered.
