Q: Single& Unhappy..don't Think So

I am 32 and single. I have had some year after suffering a tia (minor stroke) I now examine life with great relief..That I am here. I don't believe if your single that your life can be unhappy or sad.
Everyday I get up early and exercise (walking and I love to jump robe) I changed my diet and feel so much more happier. I remember once being with someone for three years and those three years were the worst..Constant fear of his wacky behavior and women who where always around. I would cry most days and probably my health started to go down-ward. That is why it is so important to take care of yourself first. I now know first hand.

I love the theater and go see shows or have my favorite dinner with friends. You can't bring love in your life if you don't experience it with yourself. I am moving to chicago in may/june and look forward to the "unknown" path. I say examine your life and expect the best so when you do meet someone you don't put up with all the crap with unhealthy people.

Life is short and I know. I am blessed and feel healthy for the first time.

ur so right, jenny! I shake my head when I hear my gal pals bemoan they'll never be happy if they aren't married or otherwise in a relationship. People who think they must have a significant other to be complete and making a terrible mistake. We should all be complete and content with ourselves first before we can enhance our lives and someone else's.

I've always treasured and jealously guarded my solitude. Some are so confused about the words alone and lonely. Being alone has no stigma; we all need to regenerate. And someone can be lonely and be surrounded by other people.

I used to say i'd rather be alone and happy than married and miserable. Its very true. :wink: I know the big pressure to be a couple in this society. It's important not to be consumed by it. I certainly wouldn't espouse anyone being in a detrimental relationship just to say they're paired off with someone. 8)
