I'm 20 Going To 21 And Already Feel Like An Old Woman. by Lacrissa: 5:51pm On Feb 17, 2010
I've been in a long relationship which he was older and he left me heartbroken. People are saying I'm young and still have time but where's the time? My innocence, those days I was so carefree, never been heartbroken, young are gone. Now I feel like an old woman that justs want to get married, work, instead of me to be enjoying myself. What can I do to change this feeling?

I am a christian and I strive to do what's right. We all make mistakes.

21 is no old. Your state of mind makes you old. It's due to the fact that you have been in a long term relationship. You need to give yourself time and get back to better emotions. Take care of yourself and do you only for a moment. You will see that you will feel more proud of yourself and please learn from your mistake.

You also feel dirty because you are a christian and you are probably blaming yourself which you should not do. you will find a better person.

at a point like this you need to first lean a lesson and wait until you are ready for it. look you are not ready until u are truly ready. dint let any guy deceive you the moment they reach the place they want to escape and taste another one any guy that cannot wait until after marrage let them go, just don't fill old, but make up your mind and i need to say this nobody knows what the guy had turned you to? maybe you are indeed old because of many abortion. but either ways you can start a new life.

I have never been pregnant neither have I had an abortion. Feeling old mentally and emotionally not necessarily physically.

Lacrissa, oh my, I felt exactly the same (and still do at times), I think there is so much left to do in life though, keep telling yourself that, and hopefully you'll start to believe it. We are too young, as proven by my wonderful parents whose lives are still growing exponentially. I know Nigerians have a mentality of saying there is no other option than to get married as soon as you leave school or hit your twenties, but what ever happened to travelling, and self-discovery. Discovering yourself when you've got a husband and children is not only the way to do things, and it certainly is not the best way.

Marriage is for those who feel like they will fornicate and feel they can be strengthened by uniting with another like-minded person. It's not just convinient - because if anything starts to go wrong, you need more to backup your reasons for being together than just sex appeal or age or desperation.

When you're 21 and stuck in a dead end marriage, you will then start seeing the decades of life ahead of you - lol. Why not appreciate that now?

You must have some hobbies, learn to be lonely, keep yourself occupied, because what if your husband died (God forbid) you would have to be alone sometime in your life, so learn to love yourself, and hopefully - if things are meant to be - you will learn to be able to love someone else and they will learn to love you too.

All the best.

How old were you when u started dating him ,16? You should be more concerned abt things like self dev, not pinning away. This is your 1st heartbreak abi? Love aint abed of roses, even if it was , roses have their thorns too, so better enjoy your youth while it lasts kid, cos b4 you know its gone and then u will really know how it is to be old.

"All is fair in love and war".

You need to focus on your life and how you will develop it. It may be easier said than done but
it all depends on the kind of person you are. If you av a strong xter then all this will be over
and forgotten but if aint, God help you.

My advice is for you to toughen yourself up but not to the extent of letting real love pass you
by later in life.

Life is good. Learn to make yourself happy at every point in time. It is well.

Lacrissa, i think at your age, you should still be concerned about enjoying life and its experiences, rather than turning your self into a melancholic woman. Come on girl, life is short. Go out, make new friends, have fun and dont fall mugu again. Some of us have a lot of battle scars to show, but, despite that, life is sweet my dear.
