I (30F) have been single for 5 years now. I’m not perfect by any means, but I do consider myself a very genuine person. I put myself out there & I have no problem initiating dates & I make it very clear I’m looking for a committed, long term relationship. But I have yet to find someone. There have been some wonderful men who I’ve been on dates with that have all told me I’m an amazing person, but they aren’t ready to settle down or they just don’t feel that spark with me. Its always one of the two. Always lusted over, but never chosen to be loved. I’m trying to not get discouraged, but at this point I can’t even visualize in my head anymore being in a relationship. It seems completely out of reach to me. That I’ve somehow missed the last boat or that I won’t be one of the lucky ones who finds someone no matter how intentional & genuine I am. Being in my 30’s now is also not helping how discouraged I feel. I’m not sure if anyone else is in the same boat or if anyone has any personal stories that can give me a little bit of hope.
Thank you🤍
