It's something I've wanted very badly for a long time, but I keep encountering people who don't want to take commitment (or life/responsibility, for that matter) seriously. The holidays are getting to me. I see my siblings with their significant others and children decorating for the holidays and I have to say I envy them a bit. I'm just lonely, depressed, and ready to settle down. It kind of feels like a lingering empty space following me around. Anyone else feel this way? Not that I wish this feeling on anyone, but I don't want to feel alone in this loneliness!

EXACTLY how I am feeling. I'm 31 and just lost the one girl who I thought I was goign to spend the rest of my life with and marry and even have children. I'm 31 years old and scared I'm going to live the rest of my life alone. The depression I have been feeling the past few weeks has brought me to the likes of despair I have never felt... see in the past at least I had her to confide in and lean on.. now I have nobody and the pain is unbearable sometimes.
But I still do have hope... I think we all do deep inside. I say just hang in there and take it day by day and realize you're 25 which is still young (I'm trying to convince myself 31 is still young
) I hope you get to feeling better... and with the holidays almost over at least these feelings of loneliness will subside somewhat.. at least things like seeing your siblings with a boyfriend/girlfriend/wife/husband etc will be less and less (since family gathers during the holidays). I hope you get to feeling better today and know you're not alone. *hug*
