Hi Mumsnetters.
I'm feeling a bit low today and could do with a kick up the backside/some kind words...
Last weekend was my 30th Birthday and every since then I've been feeling more and more alone. I have had two serious relationships in the past (lived with one of them), and I am relatively confident, happy with my job, good family etc.
However, I have started to lose hope. All my friends have a significant other, most are married, half have kids. I have another wedding to go to next weekend and I hate to say it, but I am sick of celebrating other people's happiness when I feel this alone. I have been single for 10 months...perhaps that isnt so long, I don't know.
I have started online dating as of 6 months ago, and met a few people, one of which I do like but I know there's no spark for the long haul. I just want to meet my husband and now I am 30 I am starting to wonder if that will ever happen for me. Most of my friends were married by age 26...
Also, I do have hobbies, go for drinks with people after work, I'm chatty and I'm proactive with online dating... I don't know what else I can do.
