It's a real bummer going through life alone Rainboots, no matter how anybody tries to slice it. Like you said also, there may not be somebody for everybody. I'm 34 and still being solo used to bug me, a lot, but not so much any more. It will always hurt a little bit to be on your own, but try not to let it ruin everything else. In the end, you are still only 26. And I believe that Jesus is a friend that sticks closer than a brother, or sister, and he doesn't turn anyone away.
