Dear Queenie,
I’m an average-looking middle-aged person who has a lot of friends, mostly couples who are married or at least in committed relationships, and a good job. Everyone I know thinks I am happy and successful, but I don’t have a special someone to share my life with.
Queenie, am I condemned to being alone forever?—Singleton
Dear Singleton,
There are worse things than being alone. The worst is being stuck in a bad relationship with someone who is just not right (or terribly wrong) for you.
If most of your friends are couples, try socialising more with other “singletons.” It is never too late to find “that special someone.”
