Is it strange to be over the hill and still be single?

He was sure but never explained why. I don't care to know why because i don't want any excuses to bring that back
Likely because it's done for 'relief' which is living in the flesh?
and not in the spirit?
deny one and strengthen the other

That’s good you rather be married. I pray and hope that you be married then.
Lol, your nice but I'm at the end of my life. I had my chance. Live and learn but it must be with God
I like being single.

I reached the top of the hill. I am now over it and sliding out of control going down the other side!
You're lucky your a dog. You don't have to make that choice,

You might have done a child a favor. I was a terrible mother and should never had children.

I'll answer the question when I am actually over the hill. But I'm nowhere near there yet.
What age is. Over the hill?

I figured "over the hill" meant "mid-thirties and up", keeping in line with the Mature Singles subforum. More tongue-in-cheek than anything. Otherwise, I don't consider myself to be over the hill either.

Sometimes it sucks. I’m in my late 40s and never been married. It’s very hard to date. Men don’t understand why I never married and are hesitant to get into a relationship with me because my last one was so long along. It’s impossible to meet a man who will wait until marriage for sex. Even when they say they will, they constantly try to wear me down and it’s annoying. I wish I could have met him in my 20s. Everyone I know is married. I just can’t seem to get interested in any man I date and I have turned away a few good ones but I wasn’t feeling it. Sometimes I get really irritated with some of them. Who wants to marry a 40 year lady who can’t have kids? I’m afraid that when my parents pass away and I get old I will have no one!

Who wants to marry a 40 year lady who can’t have kids?
I do. I used to be on the fence about kids, but now it's a no for me. Which poses a bit of a problem because that makes late 30s/early 40s not a good age to be looking at.

My experience with dating apps has been that the vast majority of women that age on them who don't already have kids are looking to start a family before they run out of time. It's been tough to find someone who doesn't have kids and doesn't want them (and doesn't smoke, but that's another matter).

All of you that are interested, adoption is out there and now it's possible if your single
That’s actually not the problem. I’m okay with no kids. It’s just the men out there who want them can go for younger women who are prettier and can have them. It’s unfair because men seem to have all the time in the world and women have an expiration date.
