I created The Solitude Collection with the goal of shedding light on the strength of the powerful women who have been on the solitude path for years. Jessica was gracious enough to share her experiences and wisdom to help those who may be struggling to accept their 'single' status.
Some people say you never get over a breakup; you just learn how to deal with it. I don’t believe that’s entirely true, but even if you do, the result is the same.
People often say that the right one will come along when you least expect it. Well, for a perpetually single individual, they certainly aren’t expecting to find their person anytime soon.
"I don't need a man" is usually code for "I have been hurt many times and nobody cares about me". I understand why it can feel more comforting to disengage from the world of men after many have endured years of rejection, along with being used, ignored and treated as an option.
Perpetually single women over thirty are constantly made to feel less than with smug remarks and looks of shame. Today, I am here to say that this needs to stop. Not all women are single by choice, in fact many remain single for a while out of circumstance or bad luck. Nobody willfully chooses to be alone, unless it’s their personal preference.
