I feel I've failed at almost everything

Roswell

I'm 33, I have no friends and this has been so for about 10 years, have never had a long term girlriend (only 3 short term ones, in other words barely proper girlfriends at all) and each career goal I had I didn't reach due to not being able to do so.

In social groups, pubs, on dating websites, Twitter, Facebook I get ignored more than other people, I'm apparently less funny or interesting. Except for my mum most my family patronise me and don't value any of my opinions even when I spend hours researching them.

Seems I have not succeeded at much of anything. I feel a bit depressed about it tonight. That's all.

  • Really sorry to hear you're feeling this way, Roswell - I think the last few days have been even more challenging than usual. I've seen a lot of your forum posts/comments and I certainly don't find you less funny/interesting than anyone else.

    I hope you feel better soon and manage to find some ways to occupy your mind. I'm trying to throw myself into the hobbies I've been neglecting for a while (e.g. playing piano) to keep my brain from focusing too much on feeling down/worried.

    This has been my entire life. I remember years ago I met a current boyfriends 'friend' I smiled, tried to join in conversation. But she made a comment that I was full and boring loud enough for me to hear! Years later I found out she messed about with other fellas ('she was married) I'd rather be honest and boring than be like her lol. Just be you, the seemingly interesting people rarely are
