Thank you AatHeera ! Another piece of advice to is life is unscripted and can be unpredictable so act on your feelings. Don’t believe everything you see on TV or in movies where everything is scripted and predictable. Tune out anything that is negative or a bad influence and tune into anything positive that keeps you upbeat and uplifted .

Good luck !

Sorry to say I don’t find having a third person with us on a date relaxing. With someone else watching and staring at you and listening in our conversation when such things should only be between us, I’ll pass.

Nice short write .

Oh and another piece of advice it’s totally cool to be a virgin like me .

Thank you all and add Laska Paul’s words too. Another thing to add is you have every right to say NO if something doesn’t feel right to you and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Find true positive role models to look up to and they can be anyone from friends to family to famous people. Find inspiration everywhere and if someone’s words inspire you write it down in a diary or notebook and note who said it so if you need inspiration you’ll have it on hand and bring it everywhere with you. Remember there’s only one you in this world and there’ll never be another like you so always love that about you.

My advice would be don’t give up and don’t compromise your virtues and values. Set goals for yourself and achieve them. Have good friends around you and most importantly keep your family around you. Find joy in your faith and the world even when everything around you seems bad. If something depresses you step away from it and drown it out. Keep your heart and mind in check and don’t let them get off balanced. Find comfort in faith over emptiness. Always find love and hope in everyday things and let it take you from there .

My doctor explained to me that as long as I don’t get hot flashes or the kind of sweat that interrupts my way of life then no need to worry but could take supplements if I wanted to and so on.

Even if I die single I’ll rest in peace knowing I’ve touched other peoples lives in big and small ways and that’s all that matters and after all God has told us helping others can bring joy and peace in your life and it’s helped me overcome my emptiness .

Right on dude ! Even though I’m a Republican I refuse to vote for a man who’s full of lies and hate.

I agree with you that men ,not all of them, only look on the outside of women and find us physically attractive when they forget we have a heart, mind and soul just like them. When I see a well body man yes I get attracted to him but I also want to know his heart, mind and soul to be even more attracted to him cause physical beauty can fade and so can the physical attraction but as long as the other three don’t fade I still find him attractive. I use to be like you in the crying part wondering if I’ll ever find my soulmate and was jealous of my married family and friends but it made me feel worse and so I stopped being that way and found joy and hope in everyday things and I’ve been continent ever since. Yes that special place in my heart feels empty but my faith overshadows it and it gives me comfort over emptiness.

To me both sexes have honesty issues. Like Laska Paul sad you have to be patient and rushing to find “Mr Perfect” isn’t a good thing. Hey I’m 52 and still single and cool with it but if the right man comes along great but I’m certainly not in a rush for him to come along. Patients is truly a top virtue and should be practiced every day. Be content in the everyday little things for now.

Question, is back sweat considered a form of menopause night sweat? I ask this because that’s the first position I sleep in when I go to bed at night and when I wake up to make a bathroom run part of my upper back and shoulders and night gown are drenched in sweat.

Just to be a little off subject but one of the facts that comes up when I watch my 80’s Music Choice Channel on the subject of VHS Rewind quote saying “In the original draft of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back that Yoda was being considered named Buffy. Master Buffy, as if!”. I thought I’d share that fact.

So true . That “remember” part reminds me of someone running for President and he’s full of negative darkness. I believe I’ve seen a quote by Martin Luther King JR saying “Darkness can’t drive out darkness, only the light can do that”. We the few can only hope it will be so very soon.

At least you’re one of the few who agree on the subject of DT and that makes me feel better . I did my civic duty as a citizen and voted (good luck K !).

At least here they have equal opportunity like all women do .

Great poem and so true about DT! When he’s turned American citizens against each other we have reached an all time low.

I see on your profile you’re from Indiana and one of my favorite musicians is John Mellencamp who’s from Seymour Indiana .

Yeah, and then they want to give themselves a raise. Say what!? To all you government officials: until you can seriously prove to the American people that you delivered on your campaign promises to us then will you get one and not before. It we the hard working who go to work regularly who deserve a raise since you all raised everything else cause we don’t see you struggling to get by. A government for the people by the people is more like by the people but for the rich who you all give tax cuts to and not us who actually pay them.
