How can I best cope with being single (and likely childless) for life?

Last week I asked whether it is possible for eliminate my desire to have a family and everyone said no. That's a disappointing answer, but not that surprising I guess. So I guess my question now is how can I cope with having that desire knowing that i cannot under any circumstances be fulfilled.

Is it possible to eliminate deeply rooted human desires like family and romantic connection?

I've realized that I will never get married and probably never have children, which were lifelong and strong desires of mine. Most days I can just ignore it and not care anymore, but there are still many days where I spend hours ruminating about what I've lost and it upsets me. I just want to let go completely and not care anymore.

I was changing lanes yesterday to the right and the car in front of me in the right lane suddenly started slowing down to turn right. How should I have reacted to this? Not execute the lane change?
