Kapanlagi.com - The marriage of Luna Maya and Maxime Bouttier has created a domino effect among celebrities, especially for Luna's close friend, Raline Shah. Raline, who has always been known to be private about her romantic affairs, suddenly became the center of attention for still being single at the age of forty. In fact, jokingly, Luna referred to Raline as the 'President of Singles'.
This title sparked public curiosity about the personal life of Raline Shah, which is rarely exposed. Many are wondering if Raline really doesn't want to get married, or if there are deeper reasons behind her choice. Her latest interview became the moment that answered all those questions.
Through the YouTube channel DVET_DaveIwet, Raline finally spoke candidly about her single status. She explained that her decision is not due to reluctance to marry, but rather the result of experiences, personal considerations, and a long process of maturation. Here’s her complete explanation.

Raline Shah revealed that she has long planned to get married after turning 40. In the interview, she explained that this intention is not just a notion, but a personal goal that she has discussed with her close friends.
"I have always wanted to get married in my 40s," she said. This decision was not made without reason, but rather because she feels emotionally and spiritually mature at that age. She also wants to live life with a complete understanding and readiness before stepping into marriage.
2. Teenage Years Full of Limitations that Shaped Her Perspective
Raline recounts that her youth was spent in a very protective environment. She was raised by a family that imposed many limitations and also experienced education in a boarding school, which made her feel truly free only when she turned 28.
"I come from a protective family, so at 28, I felt like I was 16," she revealed. This experience made Raline feel that her emotional maturity did not develop in line with her age, and she needed time to pursue that process naturally.
3. A Brilliant Career Makes the Partner Insecure

Raline shared that she once had a serious romantic relationship. However, the relationship did not go smoothly because her partner felt uncomfortable with Raline's continuously rising career achievements. This created an imbalance in the relationship that eventually triggered emotional conflict.
Unfortunately, instead of supporting each other, her partner's insecurity turned into passive-aggressive behavior and hurtful words, which made Raline question the readiness of the relationship to move towards marriage.
4. Focus on Self-Transformation and a New Career
Raline decided to take a break from the film industry to pursue personal and professional transformation. She is now serving as a Special Staff to the Minister of Communication and Information of the Republic of Indonesia, a new role that is challenging and provides a different direction in life compared to before.
"But I feel now, especially with the special staff, I want to start a new career," she explained. Raline wants to get to know herself better in this phase and pursue other significant things, such as making her presence felt on the international stage and making a real contribution to Indonesia.
5. Stay Optimistic About Soulmates

She believes that many men are interested in her, and she just needs to choose wisely when the time comes. She stresses that everyone has their own timing, and it is never too late if one is truly ready.
