In the same boat here. 35, never married, no kids. Lost my job 2 weeks ago. Friends? What are those? Siblings are too wrapped up in themselves. I don't even question whether or not anyone will miss me. Feel guilty they didn't do something? Maybe. It's a beautiful world but I don't enjoy a bit of it.

I was at the SAME place in life at your age. Today at 43 I have a perfect wife and we have a great kid...and a NEW perm job with a retirement plan. If I had ended it all I would have never experienced the joy now. Read "The Power of Now" It will help

You have to ask, won't YOU miss you when you go? I know that seems dumb at first, but you have to realize you are worth something if for no other reason than you are here on this earth. Look at all the people on this site who have kids and spouses and are MISERABLE anyway...having a wife and kids is not the secret to happiness. You are your own secret! You were born. You are here now. You're a member of this planet. Do something with that, it's an incredible opportunity! What really is stopping you, besides a bunch of irrational, incorrect thoughts (that everyone else has too)? We're not defined by challenges, but what we do when they're presented. The bigger the challenge, the bigger the opportunity behind it.

There are millions of people who feel the same way you do. Make friends. Who knows you might find someone.

The healthy sign is that you wrote us your message. Get out - join a church group, pagan group, Buddhist group, sex group, anti-sex group - the point is get out and meet some people. There are a lot of single women and men out there who would love to have a friend.

It's another week later and leaving town to clear my head was the best thing I ever did. There are things that I wish I could change but I can't. I can't change my parents health....I should be happy they are alive. To SA who spent days trying to track me after I posted this --- I'm not sure if you read this and thought of me or just did it because you were thinking of me - thank you. Either way it meant a lot to me. You're the original person who showed me the sight but i'm not sure if you still come here.

Sorry to learn that you are in sufficient pain to even make this post. That said, I hope that you might try to find enough meaning in your life so that these thoughts won't plague you. Keep punching.

Well I'm the 1 who made this post Monday night. I woke up and poured out every drop of alcohol that was in the house. I realized that right now I can't deal with things properly with being under the influence. Thankfully my boss was understanding with my request for a few days off and I packed up my car and headed for the mountains to get away. To all the nice posts and messages - THANK YOU!

I am a single mom, I have the kids and never the marriage, BUT just becuz I have the kid part doesnt mean I dont have my empty days, my doubting days, all these idiotic comments on just do it and aids how ridiculous are you people, grow up, when some one any one reaches out for help we as a society should help them, and to make such nasty mean and evil spirited comments are just wrong of all of you, really are your lifes so perfect you dont ever doubt yourselfs or your self worths, we are all human we all crave love and support from others, no you should not do it, yes you will be missed and you will miss so much, you never know whats waiting tomorrow or even later tonight, give it a chance talk to someone, a priest, pastor, a friend, anyone, I agree with the comment it doesnt matter what you join just join meet people and you will see how much you are already missing.

You're focusing on what you don't have and not on what you do have. And if you don't have what you want-wife, kids, etc- then work on getting them. We all have moments where we weaken and feel like giving up, but life was meant to be a battlefield at times. Feeling accomplished is so much better than feeling defeated. If you don't have many people around to miss you, then work on meeting people- that way you have others' strength to get you through your moments of weakness. You're not the only one who thinks like this at times.
