Forever single?

Question - (19 April 2010) 4 Answers - (Newest, 19 April 2010)
A male United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

It is hard to describe how much a single two letter word can cause so much pain. From middle school to now I have heard to word no more times I care to count. I have always thought how myself as a nice caring person however I was always isolated, ridiculed, used by others.

Now that I am 26 I have no self confidence left in me. That is more then likely a main reason why I am unable to find a girlfriend.

However I have tried time and time again through friends, online dating sites, going out to places, nothing works.

It is hard to describe how it feels to belong to a number of online sites and get almost no interest. Or if you do the girls only talk with you for a short period of time never to be heard from again. I'm at the end of my rope and feel that I am un-matchable. Girls just don't like me for what ever reason or see me as a friend nothing more.

The years go by and I don't see finding someone getting any easier so I am tempted to just give up and accept that I should come to terms with being single forever.

What should I do?

Problem.helper agony auntIt's probably your looks because you seem like a nice guy i'm sorry but it is. There is a solution GYM . They like your personality but if they are not attracted to you game over. You can't fix your face but you can work on your body so start now.

I understand for your situation: I'm 21 and I never had a girlfriend either. I tried some ways to meet girls, but it doesn't work. I didn't try online dating yet, but will do within the next 2 years (university eats a lot of my time). I am isolated as well: my interests (economy, computers, video games and science) aren't very popular with girls.

Pick-up gurus often say that if you get told "no" to often, sometimes you will expect it and THAT is dangerous.

By the way: on dating sites women receive a least 10 messages a day: with that kind of massive incoming interest, they don't look out for guys: do not ever expect a woman to contact you on a dating site. If you want to take contact you must do it yourself.

I do not know you, but I can certainly tell you will not be single forever: nobody does.

:( I'm so sorry you have to go through this. No one deserves it. You sound like an amazing man. Eventually a woman will realize this, you just have to stay positive. I know that sounds really hard, but that's all there is to do. Best of luck my friend, you'll find someone 3

dont get your hopes up so soon. theres a reason for cause and wait. dont look for a relationship too hard. doesn't that defeat the whole chemistry? i've never liked those dating websites anyways. maybe you have high standards? could it also be that you're too picky or just cocky with girls?
