How does a person of the age of 26 deal with the realization that they are going to live a life of loneliness? How does one come to terms with that?

You don't have to come to terms that you WILL you have to come to terms that you might! We all have to deal with what we believe is to be our destiny. Once you accept the fact that you need to stop looking for your mate and learn to love yourself, you will be open and more accepting of finding your one true love. This has worked for many of my friends. Just live life being the best you can be, learn to love and accept yourself and make yourself available. Go to places you would like to go with someone special. Hang out at football games if it's what you enjoy, they may be there!? If you enjoy cooking, take a cooking class! You may meet someone special or someone who knows someone perfect for you! Keep your chin up and go out there and be confident! Confident happy people are attractive and people like to be around fun people! Good Luck!

It's not the end of the world at age 26. I met my guy when I was 39 and we've been together 12 years now. Usually a break up means you have grown in different directions. You just need to find what that direction is. Don't give up. If you have always been alone, it means you are not jumping at every possibility out there. If you can see that relationship will not work, why invest all that energy into it?
Go out in groups for a while and learn to have fun. Don't sit at home and mope.

Why is being with someone such a priority in your life right now? Yes I know you've heard it before your young there is still a chance you will meet someone. And that is true but in the mean time you should use this time of singleness to make you into a better you. For if your focus is being with someone you run the risk of loosing yourself if a someone comes along. Once you become happily content with being by yourself then that person will come along. Being married is a lot of work and if you go into with wrong and unrealistic expectations you'll wind up lonely and single again. Be encouraged being single doesn't mean you have to be lonely.
