Being over 35 and single is an interesting time for women who want to find love. It can be an exciting time and also an emotionally draining experience.

Healing from a break up can take time. Whether you or the other person was “at fault” or ended it, you invested time and energy into cultivating a relationship with this person.

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could have the perfect relationship? Where you and your partner knew each other so well that there was never an issue? Me too… but I know that’s unrealistic.
