So I recently applied for a position as a training specialist, but I feel like I’m more than qualified to look for other roles. I have work in finance, but I do have my PMP, but I haven’t led any large projects, just assisted on them any advice to a young professional that just graduated with an MPA Fiserv, Inc

Ofc no. It's totally normal to find love after 30/40. Please focus on yourself and glow from the inside out than thinking like this. You'll be happier
Lots of people get married later today. See a fertility clinic and freeze your eggs if that would give you more peace of mind.
It’s so hard to meet anyone for a serious connection. Most guys seem commitment avoidant or complete jerks. Not all guys are though! 🙂 And I didn’t want to stereotype men as I’ve know this to be the case with women too! Sometimes it’s a case of meeting someone who is at the same point in life that you’re at.
I wouldn’t say give up but maybe change focus? New hobby/interest, travel, studying, volunteering; anything you’ve dreamed of doing but have not tried yet. Love can often turn up when we are not ‘looking’ for it.
Something else to bear in mind… that a partner should be someone you want in your life, not someone you need. In other words, you are choosing them because you desire and love them, not because you need them to survive or trying to fill a void. Just MHO. Wishing the very best for you.
I know many women who successfully had children in their 40s and just stating the obvious —you don’t need a partner to have a baby. You are setting your own limits here.
You don't NEED a husband to have a baby. But unless you adopt, you'll hurt your own body, because any sexual relationship outside of marriage is a sin against God and against yourself.
Single and 27 M. Never been about the casual lifestyle and never got into the party lifestyle so meeting people has always been a challenge for me. I've been told I'm still young and yadayada but similar situation in that I want a wife and kids and the years seem to fly by too quickly. Personally I would say don't give up. The world works in funny ways
It’s total crap that you have to be married or have kids by 30/40. Focus on quality and allow good things to take time. Way better to wait than to settle for someone and end up regretting it.
How do you look?
What's that supposed to mean, "How do you look?" Beauty is only skin deep, if it's looks you're looking for. It's the person inside that can make or break a relationship. And it's the person inside who will stick with their spouse regardless of the problems that arise. I'm looking for a faithful woman, regardless of how she looks.
You won’t find anyone when you’re actively looking. When you stop you will.
I had a child on my own at 40. Best thing I have ever done. Focus on career, saving money and meeting people and maybe the right person will come along. If not, save up so you can still have a child. A friend got me pregnant but other women have used sperm banks and they are so happy.
I felt that Ray and I took matters into my own hands. I wasn't prepared financially or emotionally I had not had any parenting classes I had very Dysfunctional Family if you don't have these things to contend with or you've already dealt with them if you have the financial security and the emotional stability that I say get pregnant and have a baby it's a hard thing especially as you get older because you need someone there to help you you know to let you sleep to take turns. You can adopt an older child not a real old child but don't adopt a baby cuz they're very hard work.
My advice: The worst thing you can do is cohabitation or adultery or fornication. My advice, find a man who loves Jesus, that is, isn't afraid to speak the gospel and to live the truth.
If you feel worthless right now, I've felt that way before too. I used to be a fiction-writer, and before I knew what I did I'd made a lot of false accusations via my fiction. I tried to edit it, but I only made matters worse. When my lies and false accusations came full circle, they hit me like a ton of bricks, and I felt worthless and rejected, and couldn't live with myself anymore.
But I'd been reading the Holy Scriptures while writing my fiction; so I had a little lifeline from the truth. And when I became persuaded that Jesus still loves me, I jumped on the gospel of Jesus Christ of Nazareth and I've been all the better for it. I destroyed all the fiction I still owned, and became homeless, and moved to a different city, and got a job affiliated with the local government - because the government, according to Romans 13 and 1 Peter 2:11-25, is God's ministers, ordained by Him to punish evildoers and praise those who do well, and as a fiction-writer I wrote rebellion against the government and against God. So now I can influence the government toward law and order, and can better influence the people I serve. And I'm about to get stable housing.
