I have recently come out of an abusive 6 year relationship and although I know it's for the best, i feel like I wasted my best years with someone I knew wasnt right for me, but I held on and kept going back to him. I lost alot of friends during this period and now feel really alone. I so agree with you on being single at 30 very different from single in your 20's. I feel like I need to hurry up and find someone, but dont want to go into every date or meeting with a guy thinking 'could this man be my future husband?' it seems so desperate! But I can't help thinking it and i was never like this in my 20's at all! I just never thought my life would be like this, but I have found alot more strength, independence and confidence and I guess they are the positives. Just wish I didnt wait so damn long in my last relationship cause this is hard work :) Hey there, I am another 30 yr old single female.

]]> Comment on Single at 30 by rita http://www.kraedesign.com/blog/?p=275&cpage=1#comment-756 rita Sat, 03 Jul 2010 12:25:57 +0000 http://www.kraedesign.com/blog/?p=275#comment-756 Thanks for the read. I am 30 and single as well. And finding other single people is hard. I have a lot of family obligations because I am still single... so my parents and single brothers demand more of my time. I am a beautiful, kind-hearted female with romantic prince charming notions when it comes to relationships. Perhaps that's why I am still single. Every date I go on, I try my best to depend on my partner in regards to romantic gestures... like being as kindhearted as I am.... but I always feel so disappointed when it comes to men, that my expectations of them leave me void. I try to be hopeful, I really really do... but life as a 30yr old single woman has taught me to rely mainly on myself, which is very disconcerting, when I want and would like to need someone to share a partnership with. I am proud of myself for being independent, but a part of me wants that partnership bond with a male... It's just hard, when you know what you want, yet nothing seems to fill in that void from the characters who are available at one's door. And you don't want to settle for just anyone.., because you're lonely... damn you worked really hard to be a better person,and then when you're more secure and confident with yourself... you're mr. Prince Charming isn't even there... Cest la vie... Thanks for the read. I am 30 and single as well. And finding other single people is hard.

Mon, 24 May 2010 22:24:07 +0000 http://www.kraedesign.com/blog/?p=682#comment-752 Thank you for sharing! I'm a firm believer that I will just "know" when I find Mr. Right, although so far I haven't found him. It is helpful to know that you really can just know. I definitely think that if it's extremely frustrating and hard, that isn't the right person for you. Not that a relationship is never hard, but like you said, you shouldn't have to sit around wishing he would bring you flowers or want to tell other people about you. The fact that you don't have to question his love for you or your deserving of his love truly means that you are meant for each other. Congratulations! Thank you for sharing!

That is wonderful. Travis sounds great! I am 38 and never been married. I have a great boyfriend and I'm hoping it ends in marriage - so far so good. Just wanted to share something with the other single women who read your blog: you don't need a man to have a diamond! I bought a 1/4 carat princess cut online for about $300. I love it. It may sound weird that I did this, but it was so liberating! I never realized how glittery they are b/c I never got to inspect one up close. That's not fair. They are beautiful and ladies, diamonds aren't just reserved for those of us who have found fiances! Congrats again! Congrats! That is wonderful. Travis sounds great! I am 38 and never been married.

Really 32....rookie! I still felt too young to get married. Keep it young, keep it fresh, keep expectations low. Before you are married keep both eyes open, when you get married close one eye. Be blessed! Gwen Congrads girl! Really 32….rookie! I still felt too young to get married. Keep it young, keep it fresh, keep expectations low.
