Where did you meet your man?

I'm a single 30 year old girl living in Sydney and can't seem to meet the right man! They all promise the world and deliver nothing...
Any suggestions?

I am so glad to hear this being said. I am a 30 yr old single guy and have been for the passed 2 years. I feel society puts too much strain on being in a relationship and finding happiness as if it was hiding under a rock somewhere. The pressure this seems to create is mind boggling, and I see the pains that people undertake to try to "complete themselves" by finding someone else. Instead, focusing on myself for the last two years has helped me solidify what I want and need and what I expect from other people, and has made me happier than I ever have been.
I see people jumping from relationship to relationship without ever finding the time to figure themselves out. I see this as very unhealthy and usually creates problems later on in life. I have a friend who is in his 40s and is still struggling with being single after a hat trick of abusive relationships. I know he will get there and find joy in himself, but his reliance on others to make him happy has been his downfall.
Anyway, this advice is the best from Huskydog. "Just enjoy your independence and peaceful life" - it will all be over as soon as you bring someone else into it.
