"You were barely functioning, Mabel. Your mother had just died. You were depressed, grieving, unstable. Do you really think you could have raised a child in that condition?" "I would have gotten help…" "From whom? Your alcoholic father? Your dead mother? You had no one. No support system. No resources. Nothing." She leaned back. "I did you a favor, honestly. Raising a child alone would have destroyed you completely. Just like it destroyed your mother." "My mother raised me just fine…" "Your mother died broken and alone because she couldn't handle the pressure of single parenthood and a failed career." Claire's eyes were cold. "Is that what you wanted for yourself? To end up like Elena? Depre

But, she could still not move on from Aaron. *** That night, Jeanne was browsing through the internet as she was feeling sleepy to continue working. Suddenly, an article popped out.

Hajia Shahida is an only mother since her husband died few years ago leaving her with two children, Ja'afar and Humaira. There are a lot of proposals coming her way but she never acknowledged any and thought she is too old to get married and also thinks her children won't appreciate her replacing their father but in all honesty, they want her to get married. There is this void that they won't ever fill so they support her decision but never told her. They are planning something with their father's best friend who is also a widow.

"That's truly remarkable, but who stays with you in the house now?" The expression of sadness that crossed Mrs. P's face was difficult to overlook. "Well, I'm living alone now. To be fair, they offered to hire a live-in maid for me, but I declined. I don't wish to cohabit with a stranger solely because my children have all left me behind to pursue their own lives. I can manage perfectly well on my own." My heart ached for this kind-hearted elderly woman who has been a guardian angel to me and my children. She has been a widow for the past eleven years, raising three sons and being blessed with five grandchildren.

MAEVE Four years ago, my mother, who has been single for almost 15 years, announced that she was getting married again. I was happy for her. After Dad's death, she had dedicated her whole life to raising me to the point that she couldn't make time for herself. So when she announced she was getting married, I was over the moon for her.

He didn't look as if he was bluffing. “This is so wrong.” She shook her head whilst mumbling under her breath. “No matter how wrong it seems, I'm certain you don't want to end up being a single parent that would eventually abandon her child.” “I will never abandon my child!” He shrugged as she glared at him. Though Janice didn't want to end up like her mother, who was a single parent, she didn't want to get married to Jules, either.

She'd rather stay single than wake up every day to a face she didn't like, pretending to be happy for the rest of her life. "You're driving me crazy! You're in your 30s now, and if you don't get married soon, no one will want you by the time you're 40! Your dad and I are getting older, and after we're gone, how will you manage on your own?!" Phoebe exclaimed. Facing her mother's serious expression, Valarie shrugged. "I'll manage just fine. There are plenty of people who choose not to marry or have kids, and none of them seem to be struggling."

Bella returned to the topic that she knew was very sensitive for Claire. “I'm still only twenty-five. Getting married is at the very back of my life plan.” Claire replied curtly. “If your mom knew that our CEO was single, I think she would have tried all sorts of ways to make you guys go on a blind date.” Said Bella who more or less understood Claire's mother's character. “No, no. Widower is not in my mom's dictionary.” Claire answered boldly because there were only two of them in the elevator. “Especially widowers who already have children.

I mumble. “Listen, I was talking to Mrs Brown today. Her son is still single and—” “Mom,” I cut her off, pressing a hand to my temple. “Please. Not again.” She sighs. “Iva, you’re twenty nine. When are you planning to settle down? You need someone in your life. You can't stay alone forever.” I lose it. “Why not? Why can’t a woman live alone all her life? What’s so wrong about that?”
