Ever feel like your going to be alone forever?Page 54 of 60    (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60)
i know exactly what your saying i feel like im going to be alone forever and i hate it sooooo much but i feel the only reason is due to the fact that some people judge by what they see on the outside rather then getting to know the person behind the face. somedays i dont know what to do about it and other days i just want to give up and accept that i will be alone forever but i keep fighting and i keep trying hoping that i can prove myself wrong even though it has not worked so far.

I've been alone for several years now and have been okay with it, mostly because my adult kids are local and we're close. Then about a month ago I met a sweet, lovely man on another site. We had two wonderful dates, he'd planned the third date all out, and then panicked. I'm the first woman he's had a relationship with since his wife died five years ago. He has battled depression and anxiety, and chronic pain for a long time I think, as have I.

Unfortunately, he gave me the best two days I've had in years and years, and I know they were some of the best since his wife passed away.

So now I am alone, but realizing what I could have - it really exists. Smart, funny, gentle, and generous. So being alone doesn't look so hot now.

I feel that way a lot these days. The older i get and the heartbreaks just aren't as worth it. I get lonely sure but you have to find you own way though not always easy. I am 51 my few friends are married my kids are all grown have their own lives , they were my life. I know now I have to find my life again. Difficult to know where to start .

Funny I saw this today and it was posted how long ago. Been depresssed in tears all day, not just because I feel like I'll be alone forever when it comes to a man but just period. I don't seem to have friends anymore, or should I say any that have time for me. I'm 39, had a child at 17 so she is now grown and living on her own. I should be enjoying my life right now right? Instead I sit and hope someone will have time for me so that I don't have to spend another second, minute, hour, day, month, year alone. Well I think I'll go continue with the tears and prepare for another Friday night alone.

dear sweet kristine, as they say, the cirus will not come to you. you need to go to the circus. you need to take different interests, the pc is not the answer, it is very time consuming. most of the guys on here, are players. they make promises in meeting someone, then they fly away, no words from them again .if your lonely, get a dog, they are good company. take walks in your neighborhood, smile and greet people as they wqalk by you, smile and the world will smile back at you.Hope this works for you.

Don't ask him because he works in "mysterious ways" and "he helps those who help themselves".

Yep, most definitely and it's not through want of trying, either. I know exactly how you feel. My evenings and weekends are pretty much always spent at home. I have few friends, out of choice, as I believe that true friends are few and far between. I'm not into the whole getting yourself bladdered on a night out, for entertainment, and therefore, when my work colleagues ask me to join them, I always end up saying thanks but no thanks.

Both my brother and sister have been married for years now and have their own families, not to mention my cousins etc and few friends.

I don't tend to have much trouble in getting dates and have also had a couple of promising starts with men that have ended up telling me that, despite me being great, fantastic (insert flattering adjective here) etc.... they don't feel they can give me what I'm looking for. I make it clear to them, from the start, that I'm not looking for anything casual and am looking for a long term relationship. They say that they're after the same thing, then over time, they do a 360 degree turn and say that either the distance is a problem or that they're not in the right place, emotionally speaking, to work on a long term relationship. I don't pressure them, give them plenty of space and time to themselves, if they want it and am quite easy going. So what these men are looking for, I just don't know!

So yes, in answer to your question; do I ever feel like I'm going to be alone forever? Absolutely!

Sure I do feel! I have never been in a relationship, therefore have no kids. I used to cry hard and often in my young days because I wanted to have a family like my friends did, but now I'm accepting better my loneliness and have pets for company. When I hear that a friend is expecting a child, hell, I still get depressed (biological clock?), but I'm trying hard to ignore these things and be happy for being alive and healthy! God must have his reasons, I'm just not aware of them...

Yes, and I probably stay alone until I pass away. Sad but true. Nothing you can do about it....but live it in stride.

Yep but Im not worried, girls judge to much on appearance and Ive tried to meet and talk to people on here with no real luck, Im not worried I'll just focus on myself and my dreams. If I meet a girl thats great if not I don't really care. I live by hope for the best, expect the worse.

i don't feel like i'll be alone forever, but i do think it is a distinct possibility that i have been so heart broken that i may never be able to truly open up to someone again. that is what worries me. i used to be so carefree and trusting. i used to be much more emotionally accessible, and now i feel like i am much more guarded. i am working on it, however, and i hope i'll be able to open up to someone again they way i used to.

just hang in there! don't worry! you will probably meet someone when you least expect it!

Yes it does sometimes, as I'm holding out for someone who shares my values. But I think of my friends and family who share them, and that reminds me that I'm not alone even though I may have to stand alone in the relationship department.

After what someone posted on my forum I'm starting to feel the same way and its dragging me down I mean tell me how you would feel if someone told you this

(who on earth would be interested in you, like leeches crawling up her leg, grow up , stop feeling sorry for yourself, because you will never find a woman who would put up with that pathetic bullchit)

and it was all because i said i was putting my trust in Gods hands to find me a nice woman :(

Wow- Oceanman and Truth--I just got here and checked out this thread because that is what I have thought for a couple years--- and y'all just pretty much confirmed it. I guess I'll be alone for the rest of my life...and I've pretty much accepted it. Don't like it-- but it is what it is... as I've heard. I've been through enough in my years to know what I will not tolerate any longer and fooling around on dating sites is fun for some entertainment , light conversations and occasionally meeting some new people, but finding "the one" ? I envy those people who write those testimonials about how they find their true love in these places--they all seem to be under thirty years old. but I have been single so long now, I don't know if I could ever again incorporate another person into my life 24-7. I can remember very well when I was happiest in my life--those days are gone and cannot be brought back or imitated. Thanks for letting me vent...it's been a while.

No I don't ever feel I'll be alone forever as I highly doubt my family, friends, pets, co-workers, colleagues, neighbors, and acquaintances will disappear on me.
Yes I do feel I'll be alone forever in the sense of not having a significant other as I highly doubt I'll find it appeaing to burdened by a guy who feels entitled to much and has nothing to little to offer other than niceness a default expectation of a human being.

Anyone else feel this way?
Likely many others feel this way just not me.

Does it ever get ya down?
No since to me as a heterosexual woman it's not depressing to not have a significant other rather it's depressing to have a signficant other since orgasms seem to be a rare freak occurence for women in relationships. For me it's awesome being single I don't have to be a silent, subservient, and overly docile attractive thing placating his needs and minimizing/dismissing mine.

Can't you just date until hopefully you meet the right one? I do. I am open every other weekend without any kids-and I try to plan at least a date every one of those weekends. Sometimes I feel like staying home and chilling, but it will get you out of the house and give you something to do and you just might get lucky and meet a great guy !
