Gudiaali-

Thank you for the response. Yes, inshallah I hope Allah has a plan for me. Right now I am just feeling very down because all of my friends are getting married and moving on with their lives and I am still where I started years ago.

However, you are right, I am not just working and coming home, I am living my life and helping the people I love and spending time with them. Afterall life is not all about having fun and there is a time for everything.

I am going to try and keep myself strong and not let stupid thoughts get to my head. I just feel guilty that I created a whole fuss in the house for some random guy I met and he was not even worth it. How stupid can I be? I just hope as time goes by, I finally start learning from my mistakes and be wise like you all.

Thanks once again!

Sara, you are only 25. don’t think your life is purposeless. You never know what GOD has destined for you in the years to come and what purpose will be fulfilled by you and only you. each of us are in this world with a purpose and GOD knows best. so dear if your life sounds monotonous to you at this point in time don’t think it would be like this ever.
don’t put it like “JUST working, coming home and catering to family”.
isn’t it a good thing in itself that you are working, you have the opportunity to make a name for yourself in your field. isn’t it a big and remarkable thing in itself that you cater to your family, your parents? you love your parents, you contribute to them, then don’t you think you are a blessed person who is thoughtful for her parents. so just don’t feel that your life is useless because it is certainly not.

and it is not at all selfish if you think about yourself too. that is human and even GOD doesn’t restrict one to not to think for themselves or not to lead a life that pleases us.
your craving for companionship isn’t against the nature either but till your parents are convinced to marry you off first and till you find some decent person you could get marry to,just keep yourself strong and believe that your are worthy.
in the meantime balance your life between work, home, friends and alone time.
take up some fun activity besides work so you get some break. often when you are depressed working for some noble cause can really lift you up so try doing that.
instead of falling into wrong company or means when you are depressed, try to connect with yourself to the CREATOR and i wish that your life gets easy for you.
