I think deep down, everyone who is single has to adjust/prepare mentally for the possibility of being single forever, because as much as we hope and say to ourselves it might happen soon, for some ppl it will never happen. But that doesnt mean life is full of despair. Life is still worth living

“The Cheese stands alone”… that’s is a fun way to describe being single. It sounds sassy.

You are so right. You don’t have to be married to be happy. The problem is that we innately want to be part of the crowd – whatever that entails.

I’m sure you are aware of the fact that there are many married women out there who are envious of the life you lead now. For example, as a couple of people have already mentioned: enjoy the reading you get to do right now. I have to squeeze in writing/reading time right now…maybe that will change after the wedding…and maybe it won’t…

One of my aunts has never gotten married and is in her mid-fifties. Her remark has always been this: “Sure, sometimes I’m lonely and wish I had someone to share my life with. But then I realize I’d have to share EVERYTHING with that person, including my time. There’s no way I could vaccuum at 3am when I can’t sleep if I were married!” Did I mention she’s a neat freak as well? Haha…hang in there m’dear. Sounds like you’re doing just fine.

Ugh I totally get you. Nearly all my friends are married and I fear I may never find someone! I guess we all do things in our own time so we just have to remember to be patient.

Oh my, could I comment on this…I was also/am a cheesey person. How do I put this correctly. I have never been happier than I have in the last part of my life..from 42 on…I got to do things I never dreamed of…gone places…and all this was not only after I was alone…also after I accepted the LORD. You can be married and be very, very lonely. The LORD is always with me…so thankful for that. Let’s hear it for the CHEESES…

Ahhhh. Good post, Ronnica. Good post. P.S. I agree with the comment about reading until your heart’s content. Do it NOW! :)

I know it is easy for the married lady to say, but I am happy that you are realizing there is goodness in your life to enjoy now. Would that be contentment?

The cheese gets to read to her hearts content as well. I’m realizing that there’s no way I’m going to be able to read as much as I want to this year. There are just too many other things demanding my attention. And I pray, that if you stop being cheesy that he reads as much as you do :)

and sometimes the cheese runs off with the farmer, and realizes (after the farmer runs off with the nurse) that the farmer is a joke. then the cheese just feels rotten and used and betrayed… and used and moldy. i hate being moldy cheese. so – go and enjoy those things!!! I don’t really listen or watch Dr Phil, but i do remember once he said it is better to be healthy (including mentally, spiritually, physically) and single than to be “sick” and married. I learned this the hard way – during and after a toxic relationship. I never got married to get divorced. Unfortunately, my former spouse lost sight of our vows, his devotion and he allowed Satan’s grasp to take hold. Sad, really. So… here’s to being CHEESY!!! :)
