I have a brilliant life and I’m so happy in it. Lockdown and the ongoing restrictions have really highlighted how lonely I am though. I have a great group of friends who are all in relationships and having babies and I am really so happy for them. I am part of a number of groups and enjoy being involved in them. But I’m single and can’t find someone to settle down with. I’ve been online dating (for two years now) and don’t see any more men that I’m attracted to or interested in on there, I’ve spoken with a few men but it never reaches the point of a date or even a phone call. I’ve tried updating my profile and my photos, I’ve tried speaking with men I wouldn’t normally speak to, Ive tried ignoring little signs I wouldn’t normally accept. Yet still there’s no one, is this it for me? Am I destined to be single and childless forever? Time is ticking on for me and I’m even more aware of this as my friends get to go home with their babies and children and partners and I get to go home to my empty home. Is there anyone here who has tips? Or who has found happiness being single and childless?
