how do you find the relationships you want in your late 40s

especially when dating apps haven't worked for you? i tried bumble recently, then tinder to, many years back, but had no success with interacting with women on either......my social skills and self confidence is not the best, as i've said a billion times i live alone, have no support except my elderly parents who live far...lost touch with my friends from my youth........i have social anxiety and my diagnosis is a personality disorder, i stay indoors most of the time because of this.

i'm getting older and just feel concerned how i will find that relationship i want, when i failed on the dating apps? i've saw videos on youtube with life coaches talking about in this digital age, it's getting harder to meet women because times have changed and the traditional ways of meeting women have dwindled.

I To want to be the one that solves thoes kind of problems i am married myself and i have been married as long as i have had my son wich us six months. There are speed dating events you can go on depending on where you live and usually libraries have clubs you can join to meet people i liked the ones at my library they just havent had as many meetings cince covid. I net my husband at work so keep your eyes open for single men at work then you can go to a school reunion and try to find single people there. I personally really want to become a match maker so if all else do ails go to a match making service they will set you up and the most important thing for meeting a guy is be open and give any guy that shows interest or looks like he loves you a chance because love is gard to come by so you have to be open to it to recive it. I have dated a guy that i though was phisucally ugly just to give him a chance.

Or work. Apparently around 1/4 of all relationships start with someone you work with. Ive have 4 couples who i know as friends, who met that way.
And another couple sinilar age to you who were at school together then drifted apart for 30 years, both got divorced then caught up again.
