A single woman living in the United States today has more opportunities than ever before in history. Not only do women have the right to vote, they have the right to an education, they can excel in nearly every career field and in the political domain as well. But when we speak of a single woman, we often comment on her marital status as a detriment or a character flaw. Not only is this wrong, but, it is also ignoring the fact that there are many different reasons for women to be single. Some are never married, some are divorced, some are widowed, some have children, and other women have none. The most important thing to remember if you know a single woman, or if you are one, is that you have the choice to make of your life what you want-single or married. If you look at movies and television today, it seems that nearly every single woman is looking for a relationship or just got out of one, or is working on one. Although relationships are an important part of life, it is not necessary to be in a sexual or romantic relationship to find fulfillment in life. A single woman can find fulfillment in educational pursuits, in a career, in relationships with her children or other family members, good friends, public service, etc. The relationships that you build in these settings can be extremely meaningful and fulfilling. As a single woman, no matter what your family situation is like, it is key that you discover what brings you the most happiness. Chances are that you will find that you will get the most happiness from helping others and looking outside of yourself. Not looking for outside validation, but somehow by giving to others, you get more out of your own life. This can be done in a career setting, in public service of any kind or even in a relationship with a family member or friend. If you find happiness in a romantic relationship then great! You will already have found happiness in yourself and you will be able to share it with your new partner. |
