Exactly I do understand loneliness is a thing but…ppl won’t feel lonely if they have a good support system (siblings , cousins , friends , kids, family , work mates) that they can build relationships with …it dosent have to be a romantic relationship that will cure all ur loneliness

Make an environment where you don’t judge singles …parents don’t tell their single daughters that they are a burden …and the whole “desperation” goes away

While I agree with the second paragraph, the first one is not true. Every relationship has its own place and value.. a sibling or cousin can never replace your life-partner/romantic relationship. I have a lovely family and amazing friends who I've known for nearly my entire life, but at the end of the day when I get home it's nice to have a quick catch up with someone who just wants to know how your day was. Someone you can build a life with and has your back and of course there is the intimacy part. Especially for men, as we women tend to discuss feelings/emotions with our friends as well, but men rarely do.

I am currently 27.. and hoping to get married in the upcoming 2 years, that is if I am ready for it.

No right or wrong time to get married. Just like how people die at a different age from each other, we all have different life path from each other and different destiny and destination

I will strongly disagree.

I am 40, single, and very happy about it. I don't plan to get married or have romantic relationships. I'm a hard no on kids altogether.

As you say, each relationship has its own place. I don't think there is any rule that says you MUST have x, y, and z relationships in your life.

Some people grow up without a biological family altogether. Many of us with biological families may never know what it's like to have adopted or chosen families. Each experience is different. Neither is deficient or less than the other. Sure adopted kids sometimes feel loneliness, sadness, and a sense of abandonment. But even folks with family sometimes can get estranged or ostracized.

We also know there are asexual and aromantic folks as well.

The bottom line is - people should cultivate and grow the relationships they want in their lives. No one should be required to checkboxes because society expects them to. If people want to get married and have kids, so be it. Many people genuinely want that and feel a lot of joy being in those relationships. But if someone doesn't feel ready, feels uninterested, or just hasn't met the right person - their life is not lesser or incomplete because of it.

People CAN BE SINGLE and lead HAPPY FULFILLED LIVES taking joy in the friendships and relationships they have.

Men being made to bottle feelings is also a social construct. Men too can have emotional and vulnerable friendships. Look at Ian McKellan and Patrick Stewart - they are so cute together, they're almost like a married couple. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have been BFFs forever. And we have so many depictions of male friendships in media too - Otis and Eric in Sex Education, Archie and Jughead in Riverdale, Axel and Hutch in The Middle, the guys in Friends, or even in India with Dil Chahta Hain, Rang De Basanti, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and more.

Ahh nah, I don't think you disagree because I do agree with your post. What I meant to say is one relationship can't replace another.. so you can't look for a replacement in friends and family if a romantic relationship is actually what you miss.

And yeah, there are the rare male friendships out there that do have a close emotional connection as well. But like you said, due to the social construct... it remains rare! It's so rare... that you called them "like a married couple" 😆

Iss question ka jawab tumhe abhi tak nahi Mila?

What do you wanna hear? 40? Let’s push it and say the most marriageable age is 40! That gives you 17 long years to hunt the right man ….. happy? 😆

The ideal age would be early 20s if you find the right companion. Lucky are those who find their soulmates early in life.❤️
