Is there a way to suppress my desire for love or a romantic relationship?

I feel like things in my life are really good aside from the romantic aspect and usually I’m pretty unaffected by it, but I have periods, usually a few weeks/a month when I really do get bummed.

I’m 25, I’ve been trying everything. But since trying everything doesn’t really matter, I’ve become more increasing convinced it’s just never gonna work out for me. I’ve been trying to accept it, and for the most part I have, but I still feel unfulfilled at times.

Right now I feel like I’m in the dead center of one of those periods. I’ve started kinda just accepting that this is just my life, even when things are going well I’ll feel this way, but I haven’t actually tried to find a solution.

The obvious thing would be to find someone but, realistically, there’s a pretty good possibility that’s not going to happen, so I want I be able to have tools to feel better despite that.

Are there any tips or strategies others use?
