[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do other ladies here who are single get sad because they see their friends getting married and having kids? I know it sounds lame but I get depressed and sad because I can’t find anyone. Mid 30s and single and each guy I meet, they are either talking to multiple women, divorced with kids, or either jobless or have a blue-collar job…not that I have anything against that, but I’m looking for a family soon.

What do you do to cope and meet guys? I try to go to yoga classes, bookstores like Barnes and noble, I’m even trying kickball leagues this spring. [/quote]

You sound like a classic case of you need to relax your standards. Honestly, the only deal-breaker on that list of yours is "talking to multiple women." And even THAT is to be expected -- even acceptable -- when you're just getting to know each other.

I mean, read what you wrote again. You say you don't "have anything against" men with blue-collar jobs, "but" you're "looking for a family soon." So, what, a blue-collar worker can't be a family man?

And, I hate to break it to you, sister, but you're in your mid-30s now. The dating pool is absolutely 100% going to contain divorced men. Why is this a problem for you? Damaged goods?

You're looking for a unicorn. Your frustration with being single is an unforced error. Let go of the myth.[/quote]
