If you ever felt sad, felt that you might never find the right man/woman to be with for the rest of your life?
Do guys have this kind of fear?

if it is a fact or will be a fact, how did you make peace with it and how to be happy with your life in this situation?

Here's the deal. Stop looking. Soon after you stop hunting for her and live a normal life out in the community, she'll wander into your life, as if by magic.

Women may believe in "chick flicks" but I'd be surprised if many guys do. I've never heard of this happening to a guy.

However, there is a point where a guy might stop banging his head against the wall. Being single is not the end of the world. Get your life in order and find some interests.

Also, talk to a few divorced guys. Marriage is not a bowl of cherries. Learn how to avoid the pitfalls.

However, you may then get lucky and actually find somebody. However, don't believe in magic or inevitability. Every decade, a higher percentage of men never marry. There are a lot of obstacles and barriers now days.

Worse, I already found the right guy, lost my chance with him, and worry I'll never find anyone I'll love as much. Worry that I'll have to settle or be alone for the rest of my life. Secretly scared to death most of the time about this. I know there are so many women who are in their 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, etc that are either alone after divorce or death of spouse or never married and keep themselves busy, traveling, volunteering, going out with friends, concentrating on career, etc. I just am not one of those women who is going to be happy being alone and not having anyone to share life with. I can keep myself busy too, but at the end of the day, going home alone and to bed by myself, makes me sad, and no amount of activities and friends are going to erase that.

I was never really alone in life. It wasn't because I couldn't be alone; it was just the way things worked out. At one point I was alone and didn't know what to do with myself. I went out and socialized, but met all kinds of toxic people. Now, I welcome being alone and don't worry about not finding "the one". When I think of my future, I see myself traveling, living in a home in the mountains, sitting on the porch in an Adirondack chair, reading a book with just my dog next to me. I may get lonely down the road, but right now it's fine.

Just when you would think that no one will be your mate, all of a sudden, this mate just happen to appear in the most unexpected of places. Cliche.

I might try a different approach in the search. There is a person out there for everybody, it's just a matter of time.

Yes, but that's because they choose not to marry. My advice is more oriented to guys who are looking for a mate with the intensity of a neanderthal bringing a wooly mammoth back to the cave. It smacks of desperation and is a massive turnoff for women. As in, "What's wrong with this guy that he can't find somebody? There must be a flaw somewhere."

A guy with Neanderthal genes bust really have it tough. Just having too many European peasant genes make it very difficult.
