I am 36 and soon be 37. I have always been single. I get lonely alot. If I date someone it always ends up with the person not wanting to get in contact with me, or only want me for sex, or only goes to lets be friends stage or only sees me as an option rather than an priority, or I dont have the right physical characteristics or right job for the people to choose me, or there are those that want an relationship with me but I just see no spark in them.
I am well educated and dress well. I dont have much bad habbits. It appears the older i get the less likely i will get into an relationship. The people that have been in relationships in their teens have an much better chance than I have and I feel I have missed out on so much.
Why do people like me have to put up with this when nearly all my friends and family have been in relationships and also long term relationships?

First of all, don't compare yourself to other people, including family when it comes to having relationships.
you've had relationships with different women, you've just never had a long term relationship with one. You may have not found the right person yet. 36 isn't terribly old, and you shouldn't give up if you're thinking about it. Do you get out often? Do you meet women regularly? Maybe you should try to date more to see what creates chemistry with other women?
Well, what do you look like, is my first question.
Are you shy?
what are your faults?
what do you THINK is the reason you can't start a relationship
are you male or female?

I dont go out alot, and dont meet women that reguarly. I have dated alot. I am on some single sites and its not easy finding someone there. I just so tired of the rejections.

That's the nature of the beat. You've gotta keep on keeping on. You can't really stop until you've met a woman you're happy to be with.
You have to get out. Women aren't going to come to your doorstep to find you. You have to find them somehow.

I can be shy at first esp the first time I meet somone, sometimes very shy.
I am male.
My faults is I dont have an good job, in debt, suffer from depression. Its worse esp when I live here alone and no one to keep me company. I have even been to places where I could meet new people for dates, and have gone to clubs and bars alot up till recently, am on single sites. I never been in love, or I thought I have and always if I have crushes on people I find out that they not interested in me or if they show interest they only see me as an option and not as an priority. I just so envious of the people that are in relationships and also discovering friends getting into one.
for starters, you need to get the thundercloud around from you and stop feeling so mopey. there's numerous opportunities to meet single women, and i don't mean dating sites.
you probably never developed proper social skills and probably have social avoidance/anxiety from an early age. I think you should move back home with your parents so you don't feel as alone and try to get off your feet from there (by being more social, developing skills, saving money to get more schoo for a better career). I suggest trade school type of careers like electrician or plumbing.
