I had a brief relationship as a teenager but never in my adult life. Not ugly, retarded or deformed, just seem to be missing something that excludes me from participating in things most people take for granted.
That's my situation too. Sometimes I joke about it and think I may be able to save the world from destruction in 2012 by being sacrificed to a volcano or something. At this point, though, it is really distressing. I have no desire to be an old maid but I simply don't know what to do to change anything. It's not that I haven't been interested or attracted to people (men). In my case, I'm just an outcast, in general. Maybe it's part of natural selection.
People usually don't advertise it if they're middle aged and have never known love. People keep that sort of info pretty close to the vest. But I have known several 40+ year old virgins who had lousy parents and never had any close relationships. So yes, I've known people who have never known love of any kind, except for a pet. And the love of a dog is unconditional, so in their minds better than human love. At least they have told me this.
Im almost 52 female and Im not disabled or mentally challenge I have never known love I gave up on love it doesn't exit all my life I had wanted for some guy to notice me was fooled by a few they were nice they have sex with me but always hidden why didn't I see the signs they were just after a roll in the hay in the street they acted as if they didn't know me but I finally caught on and I'm not allowing it anymore all men are the same I was so stupid took at least 16 guys to finally find out no one wanted anything to do with someone like me now 51 alone no children why is life so cruel
On the other hand, I'm always surprised and amazed at the many unattractive unappealing people who manage not only to date, but to also land relationships or get married. And that includes people with personality deficits and/or lousy habits, not just those who are physically unattractive.

Because chemistry and attraction doesn't work in the way that people expect. I was just thinking about this the other day; A person doesn't have to have confidence, a good job, be a good person, or anything people would associate with being a good partner. (I'm not saying those things don't help, but the large portion of people lacking in these qualities that are in relationships tell me it's not necessary in a lot of cases.)
More than likely people just build off of that chemistry and attraction or they decided to settle. But chemistry and attraction, for the most part, cannot be controlled. Romantic feelings block out a large portion of logic in a person's mind. Their chemically induced thoughts are hard to eliminate and break through. At least that's my theory.
As far as the OP, I don't know anyone personally who has never gone on without romantic love their whole life. Except for myself. I've liked a few males in the past but never anything I equated to love.

I think there's always someone who's willing to date you regardless of who you are. The question is: are you also willing to date that person?
In the words of Dr. Richard Kimble, 'every time I look in the mirror, pal.'
I don't see that changing and wouldn't have my life any other way.
