What are the pros and cons of being a SINGLE WOMAN, over 35, living in America? I recently posted a comment on my facebook wall that asked the question; “Is being single necessarily a bad thing for a woman to be? I think not, but what about you, how do you feel about being a single woman in today’s society?” Although I found many women who agreed that being single can be a beautiful thing, I was presented with a more indepth observation, after speaking with a friend who brought to my attention that I couldn’t ask that question without including the age factor. I agreed simply because,in your teens, being single is usuallly a given, when you reach your 20′s, being single means, no committed relationships, by your 30′s, being single becomes a more popular topic of discussion amongst women who have not yet been found by their night in shining armour, and if we let society be our guide, if you arrive at your 40′s with no man at the alter, we are quickly to stamped with that “THERE’S GOTTA BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU” label on our forehead. My response….Maybe there’s something right with you. It doesn’t matter what age you are, if marriage is your hearts desire, then keep believing for that RIGHT man to connect with, if you’re single and want to remain that way, celebrate your joy with others, so we can put the taboo subject of being over 35 and single as meaning misarbly lonely and desperate to rest.
