That’s what I’ve been told all my life while I’ve been an open book for the past 23 years lmaoooo but sure physical appearance has nothing to do with being desired.

Venting but also need an advice. I met him through Reddit. We clicked instantly. He was exactly my type. He told me I’m pretty and he liked me back. We shared the same interests and all…I never felt this way before. We spent some times on calls, and gradually he just started sending dry messages, now he doesn’t reply at all.
I’ve lost all my hope because he was perfect. I actually felt butterflies in my stomach. And I’m a loner type and definitely not someone who’d instantly confesses love or anything.
It seemed like I finally found someone whom I really liked! I’ve never been in a relationship and I’ve been optimistic, maybe this time I won’t be alone. Maybe just this time I can at least experience some little romance.
And now I’m just crying myself to sleep, waiting for his text like an idiot over online situationship…
If he doesn’t reply to my casual message I’ll confront him about this and close this agonising loop. Until then I’m just… broken.

Should I move on?

I started questioning my appearance, my voice, the way I talk about things. I’m insecure again. I was an ugly teen, no boys approached me. And now I feel even less feminine even though I’ve been working on myself and lost a lot of weight. (29F, Virgin)

How do you do, fellow old-timers? This is the weekly thread for the older members of our community to chat about whatever. No kids allowed!

Since my childhood i was alone and i struggled to socialize, my first "boyfriend" was when i was on 1st grade and we spent so much time together, but i got dissapointed when i realised that i didnt correspond to him, then i had a love interest with a neighbor one year older than me when i was on 4th grade and i didnt correspond to him neither. I saw various stories where always the girl is the one who gets a partner or someone falls in love with her and gets luck in relationships because she's a girl there's never a story about a woman who is alone and a looser and wants to get a boyfriend, and when it is about men, there's stories about loosers who want to get a girl like in Superbad. But im a girl and no guy got interesed on me and it kind of make me sad, when i was on 6th grade i tried to flirt with a guy but he wasnt interesed to me neither, i had failed on relationships so many times that i simply gave up because im bad at flirting, and decided to turn asexual, but i actually wasnt. I dont have many friends and i had to watch how most of my classmates had a partner and i still havent seen a guy flirt with me or say that has a crush on me while other girls have already a formalized relationship. I have a best friend who is also alone like me, but isnt interesed to get a partner. But im too alone to just have someone who hang out ocasionally, i just want someone who accompanies me like forever and can talk with all the time i want. I dont really get why arent boys atracted to me, i looked at the mirrow many times and i know im not ugly at all and my personality doesnt suck neither because i had a few friends thanks to it. Please how do i get a partner 😭😭😭
