I vow to never ditch my single friends when I get married (ok, bli neder). Meanwhile, you'll be a lot more attractive if you have more of a social life, so don't just wait around to get married.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538026753449287703.post-6579468170293607782010-04-22T21:37:05.033+03:002010-04-22T21:37:05.033+03:00You might want to look for people with similar int...You might want to look for people with similar interests to you.

Ideally, your girlfriends are on a similar page in life. Also, they have other friends besides you, that are also looking for similar things out of life. You never know. <br /><br />Sometimes it's easier to meet girlfriends, there's less pressure. Plus, while you are looking for basharit you have fun people to do things with. It feels less like waiting when you have people around you.<br /><br />My advice would be to take some of the pressure off yourself, stop looking for him right now and look for a few hers. <br /><br />P.S. My dating life is not going well, so I'm spending a lot of time on my friendships and professional life. - That's where my advice comes from.Michellehttp://3gkoshermeats.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538026753449287703.post-57289426637918800292010-04-15T05:16:56.820+03:002010-04-15T05:16:56.820+03:00The way I see it, *ahem*, you need three things to...The way I see it, *ahem*, you need three things to have a healthy life and mind: A wife, a job, and friends (put simply). Which is why I think it's unusual for married people to abandon their friends. I mean, besides for the fact that hanging out with same-sex friends is a social necessity, the "change of scenery" also strengthens your relationship with your spouse...הצעיר שלמה בן רפאל לבית שריקי ס"טhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04835340110056405173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538026753449287703.post-46251713574371712622010-04-15T03:45:00.691+03:002010-04-15T03:45:00.691+03:00as someone else wrote above - "do u live in m...as someone else wrote above - "do u live in my head?!" i feel exactly the same. shame i dont live in israel...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538026753449287703.post-42518848861716914022010-04-14T00:41:23.060+03:002010-04-14T00:41:23.060+03:00How true this statement is.

Either your too old for seminary too taboo to start living your own life and too nebachy to continue going around your married friends and families. But living in a so called singles community is no better. You slack on the things, the competition stares at you in your face, you worry about fitting in this temporary place and end up feeling worse. <br />For once it would be nice to not have to explain my story, deal with 'sympathetic' sighs and smiles, or even have to defend my singlehood.
