Like me, most of my friends are in their 30s, some turning 40. Those with partners and children have disappeared, other than posting their idyllic family life.

We’ve tried all of the dating things, found no one and biological clocks are ticking. One friend said her life is not worth living because she hasn’t got a partner or a child. In the past I’d give advice and encouragement – suggest things might turn out all right in the end. There’s still time!

From Sixclaws' Guardian linkie:

I get harassed by some friends, almost bullying me into going on dating apps because it worked for them. But I hated it – men were rude, unkind and I felt physically threatened. I found myself despising all men.

When everyone you meet is an asshole, it isn't them. And suddenly, reasons for your singletude comes into focus. I guess I'm being unkind.

Maybe you should take another look at that short plumber? oh, right, not good enough.

Time to make some popcorn.

Also from Sixclaws' link:

"The idea that single people in their 30s are all having fun is a lie."

Yes it's a lie. Who claimed that was ever true?

"What now?"

Well, you are too old to have kids. So you can cross that off your list. Adoption is a possibility. As for marriage, yep, if it hasn't happened by now you might want to cross it off too.

As for Frostrup trying to link this into Brexit and other things, that's just Frostrup's way of signaling she hasn't a clue and you shouldn't take advice from her.
