I know that its not a big thing to complain about, but I really am feeling the lack of a companion in my life. As I have become more intergrated, I have found that the desire for a partner has gotten stronger. Its more than a desire for sex, but a wish for someone to hold me when i am upset, tell me I am beautiful when I feel ugly, and who will stand with me come what may. ah, well.

Single, lonely and NOT ecstatic about it
It has been 16 years for me and I can't blame anyone but myself for it. I screwed up my marriage and haven't had the nerve to try another relationship since. So I'm alone.
BUT - since it IS my fault I WILL NOT blame anyone else and except for this comment I won't cry all over the internet looking for sympathy from others either.
with love,

Once in a while I bare my soul, more often my soles bear me.
I feel exactly the same way, hon.
I really can't add to what you wrote, only to say that you are not alone in what you need.
Here's hoping we both find it.
Big soft hugs,

As a T-woman, I do have a Y chromosome... it's just in cursive, pink script.
Understand
I understand the loneliness as it has been only 3 1/2 years since the loss of my wife. Just like you I feel alone. But I feel that I don't have the time to start a relationship as my health decided to go in the opposite direction shortly after my wife passed on. To top it off I have 2 kids that depend on me and my time becomes shorter. People in my office have now tried to start me on the look out for another person also but I resist them and they try even harder.
Sorry if I rant but I wish you luck in starting the dating scene again as I need to also. And although I don't see and will never see my kids as excess baggage those that are single and around my age will most likely not stay around. And that is my choice also. I don't get much time to write because of them (and one of the reasons)
Again sorry for the rant and I wish you the best of luck
