To the person who said they would like to know what goes on in our hearts and heads; its probably the same as what went on in yours when you were single: "I would love to get married and be out of this lonely situation, but I must not panic, but I am getting old, but I know I will find someone, but suppose I don't, but I know I will, yeah but just suppose I turn 40 and have never married, but how many people turn 40 unmarried?, but many seem to, etc etc."
By the way this may come as a massive shock to you guys but there are singles in the world who are not American!!
