Your singlehood should be a blessing!
Marriage is indeed a beautiful thing- but it is not an achievement. Marriage could be a real DISASTER if you rush into it - just because of the pressure being placed upon you, by people. I've met people whose lives were shattered by marriage. They would have been better and fulfilled, if they had NOT married.
One EVIL that has been done to people's pysche, in the Church especially, is to make brethren think - or feel that the singlehood is a curse, especially when a man or woman has passed some certain age...! It is why so many have entered into wrong marriage.
Being single (for as long as GOD has designed it so for YOU) is a blessing - and not a curse - depending on what you do with it. The major truth of marriage is that, your marriage is as good as you. You get it? Your marriage cannot be better than you. Marriage is simply a good definition of the persons involved.
What every single brother and sister must realise is that, God does NOT do anything without a purpose to achieve with it. There's a reason why you are yet single and there is a purpose God wants to achieve by your single-hood (or singleness). The earlier you know this and start living for it, the better for you.
People who have realised the purpose are the ones posed to maximising their singlehood, while it lasts and living just to fulfil that purpose. SO, stop crying about being married - you are NOT INFERIOR to the married. Just go and find purpose and live for it... It is God's desire that you maximise your singlehood.
