"You are not alone
We are here with you
Though we're all far apart
Seems we all have the same heart"
I'm also over 40 and single - no kids, never had a girlfriend, no anything.
"Why?"
Mostly from apathy. I never change something until there's a reason to change. I'm a nerd but I never run out and get the latest Windows just because it has been released. I always upgrade ONLY for a reason. As my life is running fine right now, I see no reason to change it.
"But... don't you ever want to get married?"
No. I don't know anybody I want to marry, and I see no reason to go out looking just for the sake of checking "got married" in my list of life's accomplishments.
Now if I happen to meet a nice lady, and if we happen to hit it off, and if we start spending a lot of time together... then my answer may change. I might at that point want to get married. But getting married just for the sake of being married? No thank you. I'm not so afraid of being alone that I'll run out and actively look for somebody who is willing to be with me.
"But... How?!"
"Uh, it was easy? It was literally the default option."

I can't take the credit. The phrase came from an xkcd comic about a guy who has never seen Star Wars.

Hi! Ceecee Welcome to CC (lol it rhymes 
)
Hmm...I am 42,no kids and never been married and finally! people got tired telling me to find someone, get married
and asking me why I am not married yet! What a relief 
Though I am still hoping to be married someday right now it is not the highlight section of my dreams and plans for the future anymore...I am 42 wanted kids and wanted my own family when i was younger but until now I Don't have my own family no husband, no kids...I don't wonder why because I know that God has my life planned out exactly already how He wants it
and my journey as a single lady has taught me to trust in the Lord Jesus more He knows what's best for me
Ceecee, glad to have you here! God bless you ❤

Thank you very much! It’s so nice to know that there are such kind Christian people in the world. I have been non-social for a very long time although I’m a social butterfly. I know it doesn’t make sense but it was hard to connect to people that weren’t believers. I always felt out of sync. So again thank you so much for welcoming me. Have an awesome day!Welcome to the forums, CeeCee - we're glad to have you hear.
