When you've reached a certain age, how do you cope with the possibility you will be alone the rest of your life?

Is it possible to lose the feeling of wanting to be with someone, to be in love and to be happy that way? If you knew for certain that you were meant to live the rest of your life alone, would that enable you to stop thinking that you will meet the right guy (or gal)? Should you just figure that anyway and try to be happy alone?

Life is uncertain. Maybe you haven’t had a date in three years. How do you deal with it? Do you keep on hoping and trying? Or is it time to throw in the towel and prepare for a single life the rest of your life? How can you throw in the towel?
