It's as equally hard for me as it is with all of singles; whether we want to admit it or not. But the thought occurs to me at times when I think about it the most; what we have now is something most married folk don't have. We have time. Yes we work. Yes we have a social life. Yes we go out on activities and such. We do all those things. But we have time. Time to grow and focus on what we need. When we get married, we won't have that anymore because we will be focused on our spouse and kids. So if we wait and enjoy the time we have now, when comes the time for us to marry, it will be even sweeter than we ever imagined. I just found this quote today that is perfect for this thread:
When asked why I am single, my reply is simply; I consider myself a black pearl rare in my authenticity, adding a mysterious beauty to the select few who can recognize & even fewer who appreciate my worth. So instead of dating, I throw myself into working in the field. If my Boaz recognizes me amongst the black rocks...great! If not, the magnificence of my rarity will simply radiate onto those working the fields as well in the form of teaching, which is what I do. - Sanjo Jenday
