I am so depressed and fed up with my life. I’m 23 and never been in a relationship with a girl. I took everyone’s advice about going to groups and meeting people it doesn’t work. I think god has a vendetta against me. I don’t think it’s fair that everyone else gets to have relationships and I don’t. This medication isn’t working that I’m on it’s like taking smarties they don’t do anything. I’m going to keep complaining to the doctor because I’m still not satisfied. This is how sad and pathetic my life has become the human race really hasn’t come far. Maybe one day we’ll live in a world we’re everyone gets treated fairly.
I'm an atheist so can't subscribe to the god vendetta theory, but I understand your desire to be in a relationship. I've been in quite a few but always seem to upset the person I'm with eventually because of my 'irregular' ways. Autumn Trees is right, being single can be way more fun, but I have to admit I really miss having company at times. At 23 you have plenty of time to meet someone and it always seems to happen when you least expect it. The harder you try the less likely it seems to materialise. I've been on my own for almost 2 years now and I'm just starting to think about finding someone again. I'm 58 and don't like socialising beyond a few very close friends so it's never going to be easy, but it won't stop me trying. I'd say you're in with a better shout than me. Go for it.
Wow I wonder if that’s how it really happens when you least expect it. It’s crazy to think that it could happen then. I feel like I least expect it everyday lol. It’s always been my dream to meet a woman and have children one day. Yeh I hope you find someone also that would be good. There are plenty of groups for older people from what I’ve seen where I am.
I think because I've been in a few longish term relationships that it will inevitably happen again. That's not meant arrogantly, just optimistically. I also know you can try too hard and it won't happen. I never wanted children myself, but I loved being an uncle to my brother's kids, and the thought of being a step grandparent one day is quite appealing. I just find it hard to commit and conform to the whole 'family' concept. If that's what you desire then don't let life get in the way of it. I'm sure you will find someone when the time is right. I don't mean to preach but I think maybe you need to learn to like yourself first, then you will feel more positive about expressing yourself to the future Mrs. Yellow Tree.
