At 28, I've never had a girlfriend, and my loneliness is eating away at me, frankly. I don't know what to do. I just met a girl at a meetup event. She asked for my number, and I thought we hit it off. In the end, she told me she already has a partner. I don't know what else to do. I go to the gym, I do activities after work and on weekends, like drawing, theater, climbing, dancing. I pay attention to my clothes and take care of my face. I try to meet people at events and with dating apps. But it doesn't change anything.
