I recently endured a broken engagement. Its painful and he was not a bad guy I still love him so much but I know that marriage isn't right with him. I am 31 I have a great family and friends that have showed me such compassion and have helped so much. I am truly blessed with a great support system and I am thankful. They have loved me when I wasn't lovable.

I struggle because I thought by now I would be married and have a family of my own. I do have a good life and want to be happy but honestly in my heart of hearts what I want most is a husband and a family of my own. How can I find contentment and not focus not so much on the fact that my life isn't what I thought it would be. Sometimes I fixate on the fact that I'm alone and there are no guarantees I will ever find someone or get married. I know a relationship will not magically make me happy I have to find my own happiness. I don't want to miss out on the joy and happy things that I do have bc I'm focused on what I don't have.

Any suggestions?
