I am afraid to remain single all my life, I want to get married and have children. But up to now I still have no special someone and I think I am running out of time. Is this fear of mine normal?how about you?

The time is in God's hands but the way is in yours. :) It is says that the real way to charm in love is through the heart. And the way of the heart is to love. Learn to love all persons- and all things! The more people you love, the more radiant you will become. Love all men and women and you will never want for the love of one. Others will turn to your as naturally as the flowers turn to the sun... Attract love from liking. The man or the woman who goes around saying "I don't like this kind of woman" or " I don't like that kind of man-who can pick flaws in everyone they meet, will rarely find anyone they do like. And no one will like them.

Hello jlamela, just like marriage, singleness is a gift too... If you were made to be single, because there are really are reasons why and you are still,( will later on discover why).But there are cases that one just married at the later part of stages of marriage, that is because the right person comes. Now if in case your partner in life is not yet infront of you, it's okay perhaps not yet the time or not yet for you or you are really to stay as single. It is really wrong my dear friend to run to marriage for the sake of just marriage even when it means the wrong person (Maybe not in Love) then you go for it just to be able to run from singleness. You will suffer in the end. You will not be happy. As single, you are happy, Right? so be it. enjoy the fullest it is your gift that not all has.A gift beyond our understanding my dear. Take it with open arms and God knows the best for us.

I think it's normal. I'm terrified that I'll be single forever, but not just because I don't want to be alone, but because I'm afraid of why I push people away. I know I do but I can't seem to stop myself. It's something that I guess I'll have to figure out as I go along.

I am definitely not afraid. Perhaps its for the best to remain single forever. But your fear is normak though. Everyone wants to settle down someday and perhaps you need to find more friends or ask your friends help in getting to know more people.
