Not everyone gets married.

Not everyone gets married.

This was one of those disturbing facts that I became aware of one day while playing "werewolves" at a local gaming convention. He was a big fan and rules lawyer of the game, not hopelessly deformed, but not particularly handsome either. He was 40 and single and not exactly by choice.

I remember that someone must have said the perfunctory "Oh, you'll find someone", it might have even been me, but the first time, I thought that maybe, it wouldn't and was panicked by the notion that it hadn't for the past forty years of his life!

Of course, in the UP series, one of the guys is 42 before he finds his special person, but there is no indication that he did not date, at least, before then. This guy... I'm not sure he did.

Then there was my school secretary. She saved up for everything she ever bought: her house, her car. At the age of forty, everything she owned was bought and paid for and she wasn't even in a scrap of debt. She was single and unmarried and died four years later. Although, who knows, she might have not wanted to be married.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that finding the right person really is a rare and wonderful thing. Even among the people who do get married, many people get married to people that they don't really love and then they get divorced and others stay married to those people. But a sweet romance that turns into a mulled wine of meaningful connection... it might just not happen for you... or me, rather.

So, if you do have a special someone, let them know. Even if you've been fighting or they haven't been particularly perfect later, give them a hug, for all the people out there who can't.

People nowadays are cruel and uncaring. I thought I found a special someone but, they deceived me. With the experiences I've had, it's not about a special someone. It's finding a decent human being.

I'm one of those people who don't think that marriage is important. If I find someone, maybe I will. Who knows? However, it is always said that there are nice people who has been single for so long that they just give up hope.

Re:
She handled it reasonably and calmly. No trace of anger at all. I agree with you, it is so hard to find a balance when it comes to siblings.

Re: I agree with you, wanting would equal to making yourself miserable, though sometimes I would wonder if that is all that there is to my life.

Why get married at all, even if you have someone?
