Can you tell me stories of being single at 27 and married with children by 37?

[StickOnTheKettleLove]

Feeling so lonely and so, so single tonight.

I met my wife at 35 and two years later we have a baby

I broke up with my ex at 26 and was married at 34 with a Dc on the way. We’d met 2yrs prior. The 6years before that I enjoyed being single very much, meeting my friends, concentrating on work, holidays and saving. If I hadn’t done that I would not have met him as it was a work opportunity abroad that meant we met.

Met my DH just before my 30th birthday. Now I’m 36 we are happily married with a three year old and a baby on the way

Doesn’t take long for circumstances to change . Single at 27, engaged at 30, married at 31, 1st child at 33, and second at 35. When I read it written down it seems fast but didn’t feel it as it happened.

Thank you

I broke up with my boyfriend of 8 years at 27, was with now DP and giving birth by 28. I’m 31 now and we aren’t married but another baby is on the cards soonish.

Met my dh at 28 and had a kid at 33 and at 36.

I got dumped by my ex who I'd been with for over 10 years. I was 26 and he had been seeing someone else. Now I'm 32 and married with a baby. Life can change really fast. Me and DH clicked as soon as we met and didnt waste any time!

Surely this is a common situation for loads of people? I know loads and loads of people (me included) who met their partners in their late 20s/early 30s and be married with or without children within a few years.

It might not feel like it but you are still very young.

Met my lovely partner at 27, moved in together a year later, pregnant at 34 and had DS at 35. I was terribly lonely before I met him and remember the sheer bloody relief when he finally came along!

Single at 27. Met a guy at 30. Married at 32. Now 35 with an 18 month old asleep upstairs.

Got together at 30 (old friends), engaged 6 months later, married at 31 and 2 children by 37. Now 23 years married. Good luck!

I met y husband at 35. Married at 37 and daughter 9 months later 😍

Meanwhile vast swathes of my friends who got married in their twenties are getting divorced.

I met my husband at 27. I'd been single for six years before then; literally no love life at all.
Married at 30.
Now 36 with 2 kids.
When you meet the right person, things move fast

I was 27 when I got together with DH. Got married at 29, pregnant at 33, had twins at 34.

You’re so young, you have plenty of time! A friend of mine met her DH at 34, 4 years ago, and is now married with two kids (not twins) and they are deliriously happy.

I was separated at 27 and living alone happily. Met 2nd husband at 38 and had first son at 39 and second just before my 42nd birthday . Just celebrated silver wedding . Chin up op x

Met my husband at 31, married at 33 and had DS at 37.

Single at 27. Very happily married with 1 DC at 30. Wasn't looking for it but glad it found me :)

I was single at 33. Two DDs by 36

Had a lot of fun and did a lot of travel when I was young, but my life went into tailspin when my bf died in an accident when I was 25.
So I had a bit of time off boy friends. It then at 36 I met the most lovely man. Fast forward to now, our kids are 12 and 14 and he’s still amazing. It was late to have kids, but it was perfect for me.

Met my husband just before my 31st birthday he was 34. Engaged within 18 months. Married at 33 first baby arrived at 35 and second at 38.
Ace.

I had not even met DP at 27. By 37 I had two beautiful DDs and by 40 a really large circle of good friends.

Sort of me.... was in a relationship from 23 to 29 before having my heart broken and self esteem destroyed. Met DH on Tinder at 33 had DC1 at 35 and DC2 at 37. My DH is ace. Sometimes I wish I’d met him earlier but then I think it took all the other failed relationships to make me realise just how ace he is as he’s not someone I’d have normally dated.

Very single at 27. Met husband before I was 28, married at 29, kids at 31 and 33. You have plenty of time!

Met now DH when I'd just turned 31. Engaged at 32, married at 33, DC1 arrived at 34. Busy, but very fun, few years!
