Serious question. I'm looking for advice. If you were in my shoes what would you do? I'm 24 for a few months now. Most of my friends are married and honestly I'm lonely. It's come to the point where there is no next stop in the system. There's no more time left to delay and hope something will magically change. I don't know what's going to be with me. It's quite depressing at times.
I'm sure some of you more or less know my beliefs. I don't think getting married to a frum person would be a smart idea. Neither do I think that getting married to someone who comes from a less religious background is a smart idea.
Even if I would find someone who is like minded. All it would do is distract me enough to get through life. Leaving my kids in a situation where there is nothing for them to hold on to.
My dream at one point was to create a community of like minded people and then meet someone there. It still is my dream, but I've mostly given up. I'm too big of a chicken and lack the social skills required to make it happen.
I can get a job. But I don't imagine it to be a fulfilling thing to do all my life.
I just don't know what my next move in life is. But if I don't make a move, I've seen what happens and it's not pretty.
So my question in short is what would your next move be if you were in my place?
being 27 in the same situation as you, I understand where your coming from. give a call to
