Sometimes when we become too fixated on what we believe is our purpose and it's not happening, that can cause deep unrest and dissatisfaction, like you're experiencing.

What if you expanded your purpose to include other things you may want and also enjoy? For instance: do you want a job/career that makes you happy? Do you want interesting hobbies and/or friends? Do you want to travel at all? Can you envision yourself owning your own home even if a man doesn't come into the picture?

There are many things in life that can fulfill us aside from a husband and children, though I do understand your desires... that is the desire of many many women.

But perhaps if you concentrate on just being happy in general and filling your life with ALL the things you enjoy, and expand your vision and dreams to include other reasons for living and being here (ie, your purpose in life), then perhaps the frustration of not having . a man and/or a family right now will subside a little.

I think it's erroneous to make one's whole purpose in life a man and a family... it's far too limiting and if it doesn't happen, then what? It only leads to disappointment and disillusionment. Expand your horizons! That's my two cents. (((Hugs))))
