I can one up you on that one. I haven't found mine after over 15 years of trying.
I do often wonder how other women in relationships were able to find someone. On the flip side of that, when I look at family members, friends and co-workers who have husbands, boyfriends or fiances, the problems they have in their relationships, the behaviors from the men in their lives, or the kind of men they married or date, they put up with issues I would never tolerate from a man, or date/marry the kind of men I never would. So maybe it's good that I've been single all these years. There are just some things I won't put up with just to have a man in my life.
"Love" a little four letter word that causes women so much distress. I don't believe that there is such thing as "Love of your life". If you can find someone that you are compatible with and treats you with respect, I'd say...grab him and go!
Yes, I've found the love of my life. 38 years of marriage and still going strong. Part of the secret is we are honest with each other, respect the needs of the other, look after each other, and we are friends. We enjoy doing things together, and we always have the support of other. Its possible, but IMHO, only with God's help. The things I mentioned are the things a Christian is supposed to do in marriage, "Love your neighbor as yourself"
this is what happens, you have or will meet many, but are not open to trusting them, or even get to know them, because we are all so guarded and protective, we don't take chances, we don't expose or put ourselves in vulnerable situations...
no risk, no reward
many times someone may truly like you but you are so closed or un approachable you never get the chance to meet-this is more so for women, cause all they have to do is smile to be approachable - society and feminists have made men into creeps and predators- so more lays on the woman to be approachable
if a man looks at a woman the wrong way in the workplace, it can be sexual harassment - then you wonder why men don't flirt or approach a woman????????????
but never give up
I believe when we die we will see a movie of our lives, and missed opportunities, most of us will look cold and distant (guarded and protective)
true love will find you in the end-click on the video below, it is somber but an eye-opener
I found my ideal spouse when I was 45 and divorced my ex. She found me online - I was the first person she contacted, while she was about the 900th I'd encountered (of those, I met about 50).
To me, the point is don't feel great just because you never picked up smoking....a little exercise goes a long way, even if it's just walking 30 minutes after dinner. Don't say you can't run a marathon so there's no point in doing ANYTHING.

Nope and I'm pretty atheistic about a "true love."
