Life Isn't Meant to be Lived Alone
07/18/2016

Dr. Laura:

Recently, I heard you tell a male caller to end his relationship with his much older girlfriend.  You mentioned that when he is in his seventies, that's the time, he would need someone with him. 

That advice really struck home with me.  I am 52, I have no kids, and I've never been married.  I didn't think my life would go this way, but it has.  As I get older, I realize that life is not meant to be lived alone, and the older I get, the harder life gets.  I know the reasons why I am single, but I haven't been able to push through them yet.

I've been doing a lot of thinking since that call, and while I'm not yet sure what I'm going to do next, I know it needs to be something that takes me on a road to walk hand in hand with someone who wants to walk hand in hand with me. 

Thank you for always being a voice of reason.  And I love it when Mikey barks in the background - he keeps it real!
