do u ever feel like just giving up and resigning to the fact that you will indeed be forever alone? (dating, movies)

[OptimusPrime69]

I feel like after my last relationship of 2 years ended, I can't do it again. I'm in my late 20s and am feeling like "screw it".... too much time and energy to keep trying to "find the one" or whatever. . .

I'm basically giving up on dating and will live my life with just me, myself, and I. And be completely fine with it.

I...?

Seems like people make a quick thread and not finish the opening post these days.

You and ImmortalRites should talk with your "forever alone" phrase. I've never heard of it outside of Disney movies. I think both you and he could become bestest best buds.

Oh, and you're free to make any choice for your life as you see fit. People will castrate you for making that choice though, but as long as you're willing to deal with some posters, who cares?

Sometimes I do. And then other times I tell myself it will happen when the time is right.

that would be shortly before my suicide OP, so no, never

also I can't imagine why you only feel the need to have serious LTRs

dating, casual/short term/non-serious relationships, ONSs, FWBs/Fbuddies, hookers, etc. are all options at your disposal

besides you only feel like that because you're obviously not over your last relationship, give it time and you'll be back to wanting to get laid at any cost once you're ready

I signed up for all these dating sites, etc and have received tons and tons of msgs and have just been ugh! about all of them.

Perhaps I should just take myself out of the dating game altogether and take up a hobby like white water rafting or knitting or something.

I've felt this way ever since the only LTR I've ever had ended with me being widowed at the age of 34.

If I'm blessed with a second chance, great. If not, at least I'm one of the lucky ones who did find love in their life at least once.

Do you hate being alone or something?

There sure are some depressing threads and posts today. Maybe it's time for me to take another break from CDR.

No kidding! I think I hear a glass of limeade and Harry Potter calling my name.

"foreveralone" LOL. what a ridiculous meme.

No one is "foreveralone" unless they choose to be. You can form new and stronger friendships, become closer to your family, get to know your neighbors, adopt a child, adopt a dog.

That phrase seems designed to make people feel sorry for you, but it just makes you seem weak and pathetic. Learn how to love yourself.
