I agree with Samantha.... don't settle. I woke up at 44 years old and realized that I had spent almost 20 years of my life settling. Unlike Samantha, I had my children, but not much else. I felt like life was passing me by. Asking myself "Is this all there is?"
I don't think women should be unreasonable in their expectations. I do think we should look inside ourselves, identify what qualities are truly important to us, what we NEED to be happy. Stick to those ideals and don't compromise. There is plenty of room for compromise in other areas.
Samantha, you'll only be alone if you do so by choice. You're young and love has no age limits. I'm 46 now, and deeply in love with a man that I know can fulfill my needs. I am not settling anymore.
