Is something wrong with me?

I have a confession. I am in my late 30’s but never had a boyfriend or serious relationship. I don’t know, maybe the problem is me. I had strict parents growing up so I wasn’t allowed to date. I couldn’t invite people over or go to a friend’s house. Yes it truly sucked. By the time I went off to college in my early 20’s, most guys were looking for a fling or something casual, not a serious relationship. After I finished college I focused more on advancing my career and now here I am. I’m educated, with my own car, living in my own space but still single and it kills me. I’d love so much to be in a serious relationship, get married and live that perfect fairytale life. But I just can’t seem to shake the feeling that it will just never happen for me. I don’t usually suffer from anxiety but I am also an INTP/Melancholic so it is extremely difficult for me to approach someone (as I always anticipate rejection). I’ve been told in the past that I’m too sensitive, (guess I’ve been around the wrong personalities which has caused me to find it even harder to open up to someone. Any recommendations on what I should/could do? Sorry for the long post.

I think you have come to the right place to open up in anonymity. Forget all the etiquette you follow in real life here, as nobody sees you eye to eye. It's mind to mind & soul to soul. Just ignore the nasty / rude ones and move on to find the next. Connect with as many for it is like you are conducting a survey / study of minds and behaviours. Most are long distance so no one is going to be next to you in a short time. Don't enslave yourself to someone here as there are crooks who would get you to quit this place and be dedicated to them online in the name of love. Best to follow open relationships here and marriage to real life. All the best.
