I’m so sad. I have been in love once or twice in my life but for the last 3 years I’ve been very single. I was 36 in August and I just feel so past it all now.
I’m so sad. I’ve worked hard in my life and I’m very ok alone. I have good friends, colleagues and family I’m mostly close ish to! But I’ve never met the right one for me and it bothers me.
I know not everyone who is in a relationship is happy. I know it’s not about that. I don’t want someone to complete me and I don’t believe it would be a magic ticket to happiness. But I so want to experience a relationship, a future shared with someone. Even in covid times I fill my life with lots of things, I’m rarely at a loose end just sitting on my own. But nothing ever removes that horrible ache for a partner. For someone to get into bed with and wake up with. To share food with. Share worries and hopes with.
I’m just so fucking sad about it. And it gets lonelier the older I am.
I’m starting to give up on it all. I’ve dated and still do talk to people but I have no faith that I will find anyone now. So many people say oh one day you’ll meet someone. Well it’s been 3 years and not found anyone I even want a relationship with let alone feel they are significant to me.
Managed to get myself into a horrible state tonight and feel utterly shit. Has anyone felt like this and it’s got better?
