Doubtful of Ever Finding A Lifetime Partner Again

It was not a match made in heaven. After 15 years of marriage (4 of which spent in separation), I am at a point where I feel I do not have the courage to emotionally invest in a relationship again.

It's tough for a woman my age, at this stage of my career, and at a time when I want to devote my focus on raising my daughter. There are too many risks to calculate.

While I hope to meet someone whose principles and interests I share with, I am not inclined to consider the possibility of a lifetime relationship.

Anxious to have my heart again ripped into pieces, afraid to wake up next to someone who would be my nightmare.

But this I can be sure of for now. My life is my own once again, and I am free to pursue my dreams. And my faith is in God, Whose plans are perfect, and Whose Will will be revealed in due time.

Quite honestly take a break from "love" or searching for love and spend this time reflecting upon yourself and what you can do to improve your life. Focus on your daughter and having a good relationship. We get so caught up in having to be in a relationship that we forget who we are and what we are all about. Focus on yourself!

Hi Shelley Anne, I am appreciative of your comment, as few have visited and ever left any feedback or remark. Focusing on the more important things, like motherhood and the quality our home life are far more important than looking for ways to complicate it. Thanks.
