Reply #10: Be grateful that you HAVE a family to drag you to Mass. [View All]

When I was younger, I used to hate the obligation of family times, but now I wish I had them. All I have left is my mother, and I'll be spending Christmas having dinner with her. Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely grateful that she is here, but I still feel very alone at not having big family celebrations to go to. These are the times when I get more depressed about not having an SO, and I fear that if I don't meet a man with whom I can spend my life, that I really will be all alone in my old age (or even before it). So try to at least enjoy the company of family members while they are still in your life.
