41 years old. The age when many have already found their soul mate, started a family, children. I also have a daughter, she is 15 years old, she is already a grown-up girl, with her own world and interests. I love her madly and am proud of her, she is my greatest joy and love.

But I am still searching. I am looking for the one who will make my heart beat faster, who will give me love, happiness and a sense of security, not only for me, but also for my teenage daughter.

I admit that despair sometimes overcomes me. I am tired of loneliness, of constant failures in attempts to build relationships. All these dates that led to nothing, all these promises that remained empty words cause disappointment and pain. But I do not want my daughter to see me unhappy. I want her to grow up in an atmosphere of love and care, so that she has an example of a happy family.

But I don’t want to give up. I believe that my love is out there. Maybe he is already there, we just haven’t met eyes yet. Maybe our meeting will happen completely by chance, when I least expect it.

I understand that time is passing, but I don’t want to give up. I want to believe in a miracle, that love can find me, even if I’m 41. I will continue to live a full life, enjoy every day, be open to the world and new acquaintances.

I know that many will say that at my age it’s too late to look for love. But I disagree. Love knows no boundaries, it doesn’t obey any rules. It can come at any time, to anyone.

I’m ready to wait. I’m ready to fight for my love. I believe that it will find me. And then my daughter will get not only a caring mother, but also a loving father who will become a true friend and support for her.

And to you, reader, I wish you not to lose hope! It doesn't matter how old you are, the main thing is to believe in yourself and that you deserve love and happiness.
