This is certainly not my demographic so I pose the following questions:

1) When you feel like you are the only single person, how do you deal with it (avoid the scenario, embrace your singleness, etc)?

2) Do you attend events if you know only 5-10% are in your age group?

(((( mel )))) start a funny ole lesbian meet up club 40+ ? lolol just an idea ~

It depends on the circumstances. Using your example, I wouldn't care about demographics or singledom because it's not about me. If I were volunteering somewhere, it is about that cause and the people that it will help. I'm not a part of the equation and neither are the other volunteers.

If I'm attending something that is more entertainment than purpose, then those factors may come into play more. It would honestly depend on how I felt in that moment before I left for the event, if I would be the only person I knew there, et cetera. If I'm going somewhere and I've agreed to meet a friend, I wouldn't dream of canceling on them, no matter who else was there and how old they were or weren't.

Some events can be tough if you are basically the ONLY person outside of a particular age bracket or if you are the ONLY person there by yourself. When I decide whether to go to something, the other people are not really even part of the equation for me. Mostly, is the drive going to annoy me is what I think. Will someone try to kill me on the way there goes through my mind. Basically, personal safety trumps any other card in the deck when I decide whether to go out and attend a function.

Hope everyone is having a great end to their Sunday! Leaving an assortment of fresh fruit and other goodies for the night. I had a great day at work. When I got off at 7p, my coworker kept messing with our supervisor. I was laughing so hard that I started to snort 😳 When I do leave Starbucks, I will miss my coworkers 😂

Hey Singles

anyone have any specific goodie requests for y'all?

Mel.C. , the lgbt church i attend has a varied congregation in more ways that one and that includes age. I notice most of the women , if notall around my age are married or in a relationship. And the rest are quite a bit older than me. The woman i was intrested in that turned me.down was in her 40s , im 31.

But i do feel very lonely when i go. Especially if she comes up and hugs me trying to be friendly. I would almost rather she just doesnt touch me at all which may sound weird . But its emotionally painful.

But i just sit and watch them all hugging and greeting eachother and its like im sitting still while the world spins around me. But i make myself socialize. It may hurt me to watch everyone else mingle. To watch couples hold hands or hug eachother. But if i didnt go out and atleast try i would just isolate alone at home. So no.matter what i do i hurt. But atleast out there maybe somebody will.notice me eventually

And yes i attend events where ages vary greatly. And when there are women my age they already have a girlfriend or wife.

Today has been a crazy day for me! I picked up a shift at our new Orange City, Florida Starbucks and I just got home! The best part about today, is spending a few hours with my mom. We went shopping for me a new pair of flats for work and grocery shopping. I found a few things to get my mom for Christmas ❤️😀

How was everyone else's day?

Leaving some nice hot tea and hot cocoa to help us relax 😀
