I am there with you. After trying and trying I am at the point of I don't care anymore. And that in itself is destroying me.

@SapphireSoul I’m sorry to hear that. I like to think it doesn’t affect me that much, but it’s a slow burner I think. If you need to reach out to someone, I am here.

@DHggmu same goes to you

Yeah i got tired of being that one person . Trying to be in a relationship without the same effort lowers your self esteem.

I came to terms with it and stay single. Trying is distracting and purposeless. Also if true love is real, I don't want to miss it trying to make something work that isn't supposed to.

@DHggmu Yup. I love people, but from a distance. You just can't keep giving or you'll go dry.
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@SW-User That’s a good way of putting it. I feel like I’ve distanced myself a lot from people, to the point where I don’t care as much as I probably should.

@DHggmu I think/hope that changes when you can be around the right people 🖤

Your partner makes or breaks you.
A good spouse is a blessing.

Totally agree, crushes are always one sided as well.
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@PaleandPolluted Oh yeah, you can have a crush on someone and they don’t even consider it a possibility. Or they flat out don’t care either way.

@DHggmu usually how it goes
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
Yup. At least you realized this relatively early in your life.
DHggmu · 31-35, M
@GeistInTheMachine I think I started to realise it years ago, now I’m coming to terms with it.
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
@DHggmu It's a tough process.

Make that a reason to start trying again today.

I do hear that a lot from my friends. They get pissed off if my husband and I if we show any affection towards each other while we are at a party or over to their house. They claim we are rubbing their noses in it ...and my husband will say he has money on the fight and tells them to start swinging...then we leave .

Without the entitlements that make us a community, inequality makes us all lonely fakes. American people hate the idea of socialism because they're not going to be genuine people ever ever ever! Powerful fakes.

Exactly why I’m not dating, people are exhausting.
