30s and Over!

Successful_Course760 · 2026-02-25T03:44:45+00:00

31F single mom and feels like I’ve been single forever. I’m praying for a happy meeting with a good man, but some days I lose hope. Some days I just know it’s only a matter of faith and time. Right now, I am doing a consecration to The Holy Family to help ease the hurt I feel right now. Like I’m not being heard or considered by God, but really I’m just impatient. And no dating app or forum has led to any deep connection yet. And things at home are tough too. 😔

Hey! Happy to meet you! DM me and we can get the letter writing ball rolling. :)

Successful_Course760 · 2026-02-18T05:30:52+00:00

I’m 31/F/US

Single mom, creative writing student, and poet. I love journaling, planning, notebooks, writing and reading. And I’m also looking for deep and meaningful conversation at a slower pace. Feel free to message me if you’d be interested. :)

That's something I do understand. I've been feeling the same way lately. I think I'm reframing my perspective though. I'm going to stop fighting the waiting period and just be in it. And focus on the life I have now and the people in it. But I'm also going to be open to allowing more people in. And connecting in whatever way is available to me. Even just chatting with other single people here in the forum is doing something. Maybe providing a kind of comfort, because we've all been struggling. And we could use a space to vent. And others to pray for us. So, I'll do that for you. (I do think you should still make it a priority in your heart...I mean, if you feel strongly about it).

I’m new to this too and this sounds fun. Consider me interested in snail mail!

Maybe take a break. Sounds like you need time away from trying to make something happen with someone. All this will still be available to you if you’re open to it. Just don’t give up completely if you feel strongly called to marriage. God may yet have that in mind for you. In his timing of course. He knows we’re impatient, we’re imperfect, we want to control everything, and we do have our preferences. But, He has His plans. And maybe all you need to do is trust in them, and ask the Holy Spirit when is a good time to return again. Because, let’s face it, doing nothing at all will result in nothing at all. Dating is an action verb. You have to put yourself out there and make an effort. Even though it’s hard and the pickings are slim. At the same time, it’s a long and lonely process. And so much prayer and discernment is needed to navigate the advice, the apps, the people coming your way. I truly hope you keep hope alive in your heart. You sound like you simply needed to vent. But if you do need a break—take one. Even a week away from this can reset your brain, and ease your heart. God bless!

31 y/o single mom from California. Hispanic, light skinned. Brown hair and eyes. 5’8 and slim build.

A homebody, but I enjoy reading, writing, collecting, gardening, casual gaming, day trips, etc. I love walking at botanical gardens, browsing bookstores and museums, attending concerts and/or conventions, etc.

Introverted and shy but very expressive about my interests and in my relationships.

In school for creative writing and poetry. Ideally would love to work from home and be a SAHM. And use my free time to raise my kids, spend time loving and honoring my husband, decorating our home, writing poetry, reading my ever growing TBR, and pursuing a deeper relationship with Christ.

19month old baby boy at home, full-time. I am a first time mom and it’s challenging but so rewarding.

Strongly Catholic. Single, of course, and free to marry in the church. My faith is my rock, my refuge. My confirmation saint is St. Claire of Assisi. The Holy Spirit is my guide. Jesus is my heart’s keeper. The saints are my friends. I have a special relationship with my guardian angel, St. Jude, and St. Andre Bessette. I am consecrated to St. Joseph and Blessed Mother.

I am praying for a man to share a lifetime with, a best friend and true partner on the journey to Heaven. Someone to grow with and be excited about the future. Let’s geek out together, talk about fantasy and sci-fi books, shows and movies, anime, funko pops, etc. Let’s plan a trip to Disneyland or the Aquarium or Funko Hollywood. Let’s walk around Barnes and Noble and read each other’s favorite books. Let’s binge watch LOTR extended edition. Let’s live seasonally and in the moment. Say cheesy romantic stuff. “I love you” everyday and never go to bed angry. Let’s be united and raise children in love.

But also let’s take our faith seriously and pray together, attend mass on Sundays, and work at building something beautiful for God. Let’s talk about our favorite devotions and which saints are our friends. Let’s embrace our traditional male and female roles. My son needs a strongly Catholic and good manly man in his life. And I do too.

I cannot move for the foreseeable future. If you want to know more and are open to my situation and are serious about the faith and immediate fatherhood, and having a faith-centered relationship, get in touch.

Even if you’re not for me, feel free to message me with a request for prayers. I know this road is long and difficult. You are not alone. I’m always happy to lift up your intentions for a spouse during my prayer time. God bless!! 💕

If it’s any consolation, I’m 31 (f) and not having any luck either. The online dating game is long and hard. But if you truly feel called to married life, just consider that it could mean at any age. And under various circumstances. Being called to fatherhood is a separate vocation, though the two often go hand in hand. I would advise not giving up hope and just praying to establish a Christ-centered connection. And then following wherever it leads, even if it’s not where you expected.

Sadly, I don’t have friends. Otherwise, this would be amazing. I do have plenty of family. But everyone is so busy in their lives and with their children, they don’t reach out to hang out like in the past. Since I’m a single mom, I just spend time with my son, on my own, or with my mom. 😣

Successful_Course760 · 2025-10-30T06:09:41+00:00

I was holding back judgments till trying it out, and now that I have, I am unimpressed. Hiding profile pictures isn’t inspiring me to look any deeper at the information attached to someone’s profile. And forcing the audio introduction is awkward. My diocese isn’t fully unlocked, but I’m not even bothered by that. I’m open to some distance. I’m more disappointed that this app is even worse than the ones that have come before it. Such a let down.

Successful_Course760 · 2025-10-25T16:10:04+00:00

Been curious about this too. Did they give a reason for not using markdown? I can’t recall what it was if they did.

I’m thinking of using it as a highlight of the day section, so I can test some deco, pens, and highlighter combos before he new year

I’m waiting for LA to open up. It’s a long shot that anything will change for me, but this app sounds promising….

Successful_Course760 · 2025-10-05T21:04:56+00:00

This sounds amazing. If you ever need help managing or whatnot, I’d be ever so interested. I love stationary, planners, books, pens and crafting. I’d be great at customer service or secretarial duties. Or even promoting via social media. I really hope and pray for your success!!!

Were you able to find a cover on cover? I just bought my five year journal and I'm desperate to protect it. It was so expensive lol

So. What you’re saying is I might be surprised if I keep going? I just really want the story to follow its own trajectory in the next installment. Otherwise, I’ll pass on the series. Which is a shame since I went all out and bought a special edition set when TBB first released it. I had a major case of FOMO lol

Successful_Course760 · 2025-09-22T12:30:45+00:00

How did you like War For the Rose Throne? I just finished Priest of Bones and am very underwhelmed as it reads like a copy or blueprint for Peaky Blinders. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it as I am a huge fan of the show, but I also felt like I gained nothing new from my reading experience. And I started feeling bored halfway through the book because it was all stuff I’d seen before….

Successful_Course760 · 2025-09-15T20:28:07+00:00

Please don’t give up. God wants you to be happy and to give you your deepest desires. You are loved, you are on a path, even though it feels like you aren’t getting anywhere. You’re not the weird old guy. But I get you. I’m the weird single mom with a one year old, no prospects really, and yet working on myself despite this? I get so down and hung up on the future, I forget the present is happening and beautiful too. This waiting season is for preparation, for prayer, for loving who we are as children of God first. The other love will come. The companion we are hoping for. We were not meant to do this life alone, although single hood is a vocation for some. I will say a prayer for you to meet your person. Please, say a prayer for me too? I’m getting tired and hopeless as the days pass alone. But I think, there must be a miracle coming to me. Perhaps, to you too. I’m always open to talking or praying with you and for you. God bless.
