Zilla,
I feel Ya too. I was recently divorced from my partner I was with almost a decade. We were together for 7 years, then married. Divorced 2 years later. Looking back the marriage was done as attempt to save a relationship and I was being told constantly by people, you need to marry him.
After the divorce, I was happily single again. I never had kids, no strings it was great. However. I am now 35 and have started to come to the conclusion I may never have my own family. Despite the divorce being almost a year done, I am now just starting to feel heavy.
I have no chipper answer here. Just the advice to live your life with gratitude for friends and family that love you no matter what. Also, focus on yourself and who you are, Nothing to lose there.
I just think I identify with the malaise as we have the simple age range. Well, men have a bit longer. But I'm facing down a barrel that nieces and nephews are the closest I will have to human children. So I'm spoiling the hell out of them so they can look after me when I'm old and alone.
Just focus on #1 and be well
peace,
Lil-R
