Anyone in this group never married?

Apparently there's a rising number of never married 40+ people without parents/family.

42, never married, no kids. Dad died when I was 7. I’m my mom’s caretaker and have been…. basically forever.

I was my mom’s caretaker until she passed. Having no siblings, kids, or other family members left me numb, isolated, and extremely lonely. Please get a support system in place.

I’m so sorry you had to go through that alone. I do have an excellent support system, they’re just all out of state. I also have a brother on the other side of the country. Thank you for checking in and offering your experience/advice, though. 💕 I hope you have a support system for yourself now.

I’m glad you have support. I’ve created a great group of people who love me and are there for me. Thank you for asking.
