If you have a relationship with Christ you never feel alone.

That one hurts man. We have to reach for the things we want in life. It don’t come for free, and certainly not by itself

I'm afraid this will be my daughter in 17 years 😥

Sobering.

One of my grandfathers had 9 kids, all of which had kids besides one who was a junkie. He ended up dying with over 30 grandkids. If he ever needed anything, it was provided for him by his family, he didn't have much to give away for inheritance (was poor and dyslexic his whole life) but always jok...

You need to be in the right marriage. That will make all the difference. Being married to the wrong person will make you wish you were dead some days.

Its their comments about waiting and expecting something magical to happen.. like they see life as happening TO THEM, so they can absolve themselves of responsibility for their own choices.

Families are proof of work,they dont just happen. Life isnt woke. not everyone wins a prize for paticipation.

That is heartbreaking. Praying she finds Hope.

I agree. Having both a husband and a baby, my life is way fuller and happier than when I was single.

It's ok to be not confident with their life, now the person needs to get up at start trying

By no means is marriage or family essential for a full and happy life. That claim is broad brush, one size fits all, bullshit, devoid of nuance. Marriage and family is a massive dice roll. While marriage and family CAN be a source of great fulfillment in life, these relationships can also inject ch...

Something interesting happens around 50 (I just turned 53). You start asking yourself, "Did I do it? Did I pull it off?" This is a reflection not only of accomplishment but of meaning, purpose, and genuine connection to others. Before 50, you don't ask that question because you're still building. Bu...

I believe she's been realizing this from her 30s but wouldn't admit it until now that she hits 50, which is even beyond the point of no return.

Notice how the lady also has no friends or community. Marriage and children are not the only road to these things nor does having a husband or kids make everyone happy. There is no magic recipe for a full and happy life.

Dear lord this is depressing

Terrifying, wishing this fellow all the best

Sounds like he’s been waiting for something to happen all his life. Should of climbed into the front seat & started driving rather than being a passenger. Sad.

Sheesh, this reads just like how my best mate texts.

She still doesn’t get… rambling on reddit won’t solve her loneliness. She works in a restaurant I guess, usually the easiest environment to get in touch with new people and she’s still too egotistical and hopes for miracles. Like the meme that the drowning person sends away boat after bo...

Our generation will have an ocean of these stories in the coming years.
