Never married! 24 years old!

I am just trying to figure out if I should marry a woman or the church! I think God will let me know.

Lol… Men are strange creatures to understand some times.

I am a little worried about getting back into the dating pond. The last 1 and half has been crazy. I finished law school and took the BAR and I am just now getting use to having a ‘normal’ schedule. doesn’t help that when people hear that I am a lawyer that they either tell me some bad lawyer joke or how all lawyers are scum. Starts me off on a bad foot. Plus being in my early 30’s I know what type of personality I do well with and don’t Have time for all the dating games and BS that tends to go on. I am a pretty straight forward.

Though I just have to have faith that god has some plan and if I am meant to be single then I meant to be single. he will just have to fill the desires he has planted in my heart in other ways.
 
Oh my prayers are with everyone during the advent, Christmas, and new year holidays. I know they can be rough sometime when everyone else has their dates to parties or visiting family, etc. Or the always favorite holiday time questions… Why aren’t you married, why don’t you have kids, you know your not getting any younger. Luckily my family is good about those things but I know others arent so lucky…hugs and prayers!

In Polish, law is the same word as right (similar to French). I have to exercise a lot of control over my facial muscles whenever I hear the unfunny joke about “left” yet another time.

As for scum… sometimes the reputation is useful. Like when you have a problem with your new shoes. 😛

You should start hanging out with judges. 😉

That’s a good idea Beckers. Personally I don’t mind being single but I know there are those who struggle with it! I too will offer up prayers!!
 
I guess techincally I am part of the ‘never marrieds’ here although I am currently in a relationship.
To be completely honest, before this one came around, I adored being single. I didn’t have time for someone else and wanted to be selfish and focus on myself, my career, achieving certain personal goals first…a relationship was the absolute last thing on my mind and then it kind of just happened. I suppose what I am trying to say is, kind of like when you lose an item like your keys and you keep looking but can’t locate them, often when you stop looking is when you find them. 🙂

Can I ask a question regarding the “selfish career focused” bit?
 
Sure. By that I meant that I wasn’t ready to be in a relationship at that point in my life because it wouldn’t be fair for the other person. I didn’t have the time nor energy to focus on someone else, and frankly I didn’t want to. I had other interest ahead of a guy. I wanted to establish myself, buy a house, etc, first. So why would I put a man through that and my lack of attention? So instead I was selfish (and I guess thats ok in this instance) and invested my energy into my modeling career, traveling, cherishing my “me” time. Best thing I ever did.

ROFL. That’s what I’m doing right now. It hasn’t worked out for me and I’m just being more and more happy in my singleness. Hahaha.

Sometimes I think: I’d dread meeting someone because I like my life as it is… and I’m rather attached to my house!!! Heh.

Amen. I don’t think there is anything wrong with being single. If I wasn’t in a relationship now I am sure I would still be single by choice. 😃
But I feel now that I have established myself at a very young age, that I can properly dedicate time to this relationship. So far is has worked quite well. Leave it in God’s hands. He always provides.
 
I’ve never been married. There are a variety of reasons why. I live in Manhattan and I find the dating environment… interesting, to say the least. Lots of focus is paid to the superficial. I fully admit that I fell into putting attention on the unimportant, too. I think my attitude has changed, however. I’m hopeful I’ll find someone who feels the same.
 
I’m 21 and never married. It doesn’t really bother me though, since I have plenty of things to do in life (and more on my “to do” list than I’ll ever accomplish in a reasonable lifespan).

And besides, there are plenty of practicing Catholic men, there isn’t really a need for one more. :)😛

I’m 21 and I’ve never married. I do feel that the married life is my vocation, however, and I’ve been praying for my future husband for a very long time. 🙂
