I guess all I'm saying is that I can't base my life around something that might not happen. If it happens, great, my prince charming can come live in my cottage with the kitty. hehehe. But if not, then I'm content with that too (it just took awhile to get used to the idea). It's not like I'm dead, I still go out with friends on a regular basis, I just a cynic.

Don't discount yourself just yet... I use to resign myself to your thinking even after I got my Ph.D. But, then it happened so fast, I met somebody, dated him for a bit, then married him... And so now, I am married...
If you want to get married, you will... It may be in a different timeframe than what you anticipated... But it will come...
However, if you want children and you are under 35, I would seriously suggest harvesting your eggs before it gets too late, like it did for me... Then you don't have to have the "rigamaroll" of infertility and biological clock explosions when you actually do meet that special someone...
