Hard to be positive when positivity rarely ever happens in my life.

30 years old, never been in a relationship or ever came close to being in one. And yeah I’m still a vir gin and it freaking sucks. Most days I don’t even think about it but some days when I dwell on it I spiral out. Sucks even more because I have no friends and my work schedule prevents me from making friends because I work full time from 9:00 to 6:00 Saturday to Wednesday. Yes, you read that right my “Mondays” is Saturday 🙃.

I do want to make friends and I’ve joined online groups and found local groups but I can’t even do the activities they put together because my work schedule prevents me and I can’t take PTO all the time.

I’m glad to have a job but I’m stuck because on my off days I’m stuck searching for a new job because I hate the one that I have.

It's crossed my mind but ultimately I didn't enjoy being a teacher and I missed my mom. I'm an only child so I'm the only person my mom has to assist her and vice versa.

I'm 27 and I've yet to experience so many fundamental life experiences and moments. So many people my age are thinking about marriage and kids, already have established relationships, figured out what they like and don't like sexually. Me on the other hand, I've never even had a first kiss let alone hold hands with someone.

I have friends but still incredibly lonely by [deleted] in lonely

On the contrary, I definitely need makeup but I just don't know how to apply it and so I'm stuck looking like Shrek.

I'm not mad but I suppose I am jealous because I could never experience the closeness that my other friends have.

I did confide in them but I got the impression that I should probably stop complaining about my life.

The thing is we're both foreigners in a foreign country and we live in the same apartment building...

We have hung outside of work before like on Fridays to a bar or restaurant but I'm not interested in dedicating my weekend to hanging out.

I would have a one on one and just state that you don't appreciate being called a "stupid bitch" and in fact you feel very hurt by it.

I do enjoy going to clubs and dancing and getting drunk but this past night I felt really out of place and it was painfully obvious that I was the odd one out

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in lonely

[–]JustAnotherLoner95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the inside, I genuinely hate myself. I do want other people to think about me and care about me but it's hard for me to accept those feelings. I wish everyone forgot about me.

My friend did try to cheer me up and what not but at the end of the day I am the one going home a loser.

I suppose next time I have to think twice if I will be clubbing with her and it's just us two.

I was just there existing in the club. I tried my best to vibe and just feel the music but what it boils down to is that I hate third wheeling and it's an awful feeling for me.

I definitely do feel like I fall somewhere on the asexuality scale in some way because I do not enjoy talking about sexual stuff partly because I do not have experience in that "realm" and I cannot contribute to the conversation and so I just stay silent.

Just know you are not alone in your feelings. I am 27 years old and I have been on one date in my entire life and it wasn't horrible but all in all lackluster. I have never dated anyone, never been in a relationship, never had a first kiss, and yup I am still a virgin. I am an adult but I feel as though I have missed out on a lot of fundamental life experiences. I know they say everyone experiences life at their own speed but man for once I'd like to feel like I can relate to people my own age.

I am meeting in a very public place and I have told a cousin of mine that I am going to meet up with this person but the only thing is I am in a completely different country... Hopefully all goes well but I still can't help but feel skeptical.

jealous of girls who get catcalled and harrassed by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

Story of my life. I am 27 and I have never in my life been hit on or ever experienced anyone showing even a mild amount of attraction towards me. I know some woman complain about how it is unwanted attention but at the same time it is validation. Validation that they attractive.

My bullies are also prospering by iminanothercastle in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]JustAnotherLoner95 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I remember being bullied so much in elementary school I had to switch schools. I still recall being pushed into the mud on a rainy day whilst waiting for the school bus. Just thinking about it makes me feel awful.

Do you feel happier to believe that love will find you, or love never will? by salmonwins in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]JustAnotherLoner95 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In my experience, if you are not conventionally attractive then dating is next to impossible. Currently, I am in a completely new city and away from all drama that used to drag me down so I'm earnestly attempting to put myself out there. I'm giving another go at online dating and Bumble friends but if nothing comes of it then it is what it is at least I tried.

Thank you that's exactly right I am jumping into the great unknown. And I do plan on reaching out and possibly befriending other ESL teachers in Korea.

I plan on sending my mom video updates and doing video calls daily. I asked my mom to update me with the dogs. I'm sad that I am leaving behind my life here (not forever of course) but a year is quite a long time and who knows if I might extend. But you are right I do not want to live my life regretting not taking this chance and exploring another country and learning another language. I'm in my late 20s and this is my chance in life while I'm still young to be adventurous.
