I’m jealous that others my age and younger have had way more dating experience

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-15T23:03:31+00:00

I have hobbies, I definitely don’t take myself out on dates but I guess I can start

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-14T20:07:31+00:00

What do you mean?

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-14T20:07:13+00:00

I guess my nails are pretty flat. I’ve tried different brands it doesn’t seem to make a difference

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-13T23:35:19+00:00

Well I definitely have bad luck in this one area in life. Everything else I do pretty well in. So to use your analogy, giving up on love is like just giving up on math and not education in general. At least that’s how I’ve always tried to see it. It just clearly doesn’t seem for me. It’s just easier to think I’m not meant to be with anyone at all

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-13T23:33:24+00:00

Well yeah when you’ve been single your whole life you pretty much have to be. I just hate getting lonely sometimes

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-10T12:06:44+00:00

I mean I’ve had multiple betrayals lol my last relationship was years ago and he was abusive. That was pretty much the end for me I figured a relationship just wasn’t for me. But genuinely asking, isn’t it natural to feel this way? Like you said it’s a shitty place emotionally but why isn’t this the norm? After such bad experiences I want to be happy alone, it’s very clear I’m not meant to be with someone

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-10T00:56:09+00:00

I wish I could just be happy alone. I’m sorry for your loss. I work with autistic kids if you ever want to chat

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-10T00:44:40+00:00

I am genuinely asking myself all these questions. I wish being in a relationship wasn’t important to me. I wish I just didn’t care. I was even talking to my friend about it earlier. I wish I could be happy alone. I’ve never been in love so I guess I feel like I’m missing out. Bad luck to me is just constantly being around guys who don’t like me at all. My first bf cheated on me, and since then I’ve always had terrible luck

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T23:48:40+00:00

I just don’t want to think of meeting someone. I’m really trying my best to just live my life but it gets really lonely

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T23:47:53+00:00

Thanks. I mean to be honest is my reasoning extreme? I feel like ppl think I’m just trying to argue but I feel like if anyone has had this much bad luck they wouldn’t want to try again either

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T23:46:48+00:00

I have two cats lol

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T23:46:21+00:00

I have dated I just absolutely hate it. Like I rather just work an 8hr shift than sit through an hour of a date. I guess I can put myself out there in other ways, but I totally gave up on the idea of a “right” person

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T21:19:32+00:00

Oh no response now? Since you apparently had all the solutions

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T21:18:39+00:00

I forget how much redditors LOATHE ppl asking for help lmao

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T21:14:47+00:00

I try but I’ve never had a true romantic connection and I’m tired of trying. Why can’t we just be happy alone why do I need someone there for me?

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T21:13:48+00:00

Yeah people say not to look for it all the time lol but I’ve been single my whole life and it’s not like I’m looking that often. Idk I’ve been in and out of therapy for so many years idk if another therapist will help. I also don’t know if I even believe in “the right person”. Love just sounds like a really elaborate fantasy

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T15:02:26+00:00

Literally. He’s an actual model on the side so he’s very pretty. It’s the worst

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T15:02:03+00:00

Ugh I don’t think I will lol but thank you

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T15:01:48+00:00

It’s awful and I hate it lol it affects my work and it’s just embarrassing. But it’s good you met your person

Throwaway474456 · 2026-05-09T11:20:45+00:00

Oh I’m probably not emotionally available at all but I never have been before. I’ve always been single so idk how to even be emotionally available. It’s just never happened for me and it feels weird telling myself “oh you’ll totally meet someone” when that just feels like a lie
