Today, my 5-year-old daughter said "Mommy, why doesn't anyone wanna marry you?" I've been asking myself the same question for all too many years. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my five year old daughter asked me what a divorce was. When I asked why she wanted to know, she replied with "Daddy wants one. He says you can have me." FML
Today, my 4 year old niece asked me why I didn't have a job or wife. FML
Got 'em
Today, my older brother and I were teasing our mom about her age. When we jokingly told her it was hard for us to watch our parents get old, she responded by saying, "Yeah, well, it's hard for me to watch my kids grow up and not have anyone who wants to marry them." FML
It's not for everyone
Today, my daughter told me she “doesn’t ever see herself getting in a relationship” and “dating just isn’t for her.” She’s 30 and has never been with anyone. FML
Under pressure
Today, my mom asked me out of the blue if I was ever going to consider getting married. It wasn't until after the conversation ended that I remembered my siblings are all either single like I am, or incapable of having children. I am my mother's last hope of becoming a grandma, and she reminds me all the time. FML
Today, I asked my mom why nobody likes me. She reeled off about a dozen reasons. FML
Beautiful sentiment
Today, my daughter is twelve and doesn’t have a single friend, despite being kind and sweet. When I asked her why, she said, “All the other kids want me to die.” FML
You snooze, you lose
Today, my daughter has spent the last few hours moaning that the boy she’s known since they were 4 years-old got a girlfriend instead of asking her out. She’s known him for almost 20 years. If she liked him all that time, she should have asked him out herself instead of moaning at me. FML
Today, I asked my mum why she never had any children after me. She scoffed and asked if I've looked in a mirror lately. FML
Wise words
Today, my five year-old daughter came up to me and told me she wanted to be a nun. When I asked why, she replied, "So I won't get my heart broken by a boy." FML

It's better to not be married than to be married to someone who isn't good to you. Just focus on being the best mom to your daughter.

I love how kids have zero filter and just say whatever is on their minds. And you don't need to be married...just focus on being the best mom you can be to your daughter :)

Now when she grows up she will know how not to be a single mom like you

Hm, let's see. You have a 5 year old and wonder why you aren't married. Your problem is either your kid or your personality.

Probably because you have a five year old daughter.

Probably because you ask yourself that question. Having a kid aside, which is already something hugely unattractive to most people, few people want to hook up with someone desperate for a relationship. Just see where chatting takes you, and don't throw em away if they're unwilling to put a ring on that finger, you could make some friends and maybe they'll introduce you to someone more suitable to your requirements.

Even with the kid's lack of filter she couldn't find reason for op not to be married. That is true love and obviously op must be sort of attractive ;p
