I am 42 single and childless. I’m so sad at how my life has turned out. I’m struggling at the moment as I’m very lonely and I really want to change my mindset for good but I’m running out of enthusiasm of wanting to try as I can never seem to change how I feel. I have few friends but life and responsibilities means we don’t meet up that much. I work shift work in a challenging role, I enjoy it but it has become a bit monotonous. I have three days off coming up and no real plans. I feel sad when my colleagues all talk about that they’ve done on days off and I’ve done very little and sometimes see no one. I spend so much time alone as I live alone, it’s just getting a bit much. I’d like a relationship but I don’t feel I have anything to offer anymore. I’m sorry this is such a depressing post but I was hoping for advice or people in similar circumstances and were able to change their lives. I feel this has been made worse recently as a friend is moving away and I’ll miss her.
