Tired of being alone, afraid of not being alone

You may not believe me, but that sounds like myself at your age. I still feel that way because I just turned 40, yet I'm still alone too.

"People talk but have nothing to say "

IMO, this is the truest truth 😳

I seriously understand your words, cuz when you have been through it, you can empathize.

You're not alone feeling this way.

@LickOrRice Since you are a young woman you will probably have to go through at least a dozen guys before you are ready for a long-term relationship such as a marriage. Take precautions and don't get pregnant.

The average number of sexual partners
"There's a lot of research on lifetime sexual partners, and any given study will give you slightly different numbers. But in general, anywhere between 4 and 8 partners is considered an average number of sexual partners for adult men and women.Mar 13, 2023"

"Just to throw a curveball here: A 2018 survey from NectarSleep found men reported having an average of 26 sexual partners before "settling down"; for women, the average was 19 sexual partners."

OK. But in all reality, at 18-21 just how long have you been alone? Your call but I might slow my roll with the 'forever' thing at this stage in your life. You've got a little ways to go. Don't want to create realities that aren't based in reality.

There people who would love you just for that
