So I met this girl at church, right? Well, goddamn it... once again I thought was seeing favorable signs of romantic interest and once again I could not have been more wrong. It appears that I have no ability whatsoever to determine if a girl is interested in me or not.
Alas, this has happened to me one too many times. Now, even if a girl is interested in me, I don't think I'll be able to believe it. I don't know how to trust in that anymore. I don't know what means what.
I am completely clueless. And that's that. I give up, completely, totally and utterly. I give up.
It's time I learned to accept that I'm not meant to find love in this life and learn to live single. That is my lot.
At least this time, I'm talking about living and not dying.
Best,
Lisa

Hi there
And this time I don't have to worry about you dying. I've been concerned about you, it was about time for me to send you a note.
I can hear the sadness and frustration in your note. But again, I want to tell you there are people here who care. There are people here who will pray or chat or most anything if you'll reach out.
I'll be keeping you in prayer. If there is anything I can do, or anything in particular to pray about please, drop me a note. You can send it through the mail system here, or drop a line to [email protected].
Hugs to you,
Beth
I want to reach out.
I could really use someone to talk to. After thirty-eight years in this hell hole we call a world I still have nobody I can call any time to talk about anything. Not even my best friend.
Meanwhile, please pray for me that I will continue to be able to resist thoughts of suicide. I have certainly known more dire struggles with that than I have at the moment, but I can never entirely shake those nasty thoughts. Just pray that... well, I hate being alone and can't handle that anymore but at the same time I seem to have neither means nor resources with which to find anyone, so... please just pray that God will either fix that ASAP or help me to see a third option. Also, if I am forced to accept such a third option, ask God to help me embrace it, if that is my fate. In any case, please ask God to help me find lasting peace - if there is such a thing to be had.
Thank you so much for your continuing support, Beth. It is such a help to know that there are people who care.
Hugs,
Lisa
Don't worry
Remember the lightning bolt that Michael Corleone was struck by in The Godfather? He found true love and so will you!
I met my wife 23 years ago, we were engaged for a week. I wasn't expecting a connection when I was to meet the sister of a family friend, it was just a social gathering. You never know when you will will meet the one. Don't give up, it'll happen! People say that marriage is a lot of work, that's B.S., if you meet the right one. Don't force it!

Hi. Just a short note here
Hi.
Just a short note here that I truly hope won't sound pithy.
I understand, M.L. I've been a shy one all my life and have mis-read ladies in the past, too, and am still alone as I approach my 40's.
However... consider, perhaps, these things about being 'alone' in your home:
- Pets, be they cats, dogs, or goldfish, can listen to you all day long and never get bored.
- You can stumble from the bedroom to the bathroom in your undies with zero embarrassment.
- The coffee in the pot is always made just how YOU like it!
- Nagging? What nagging?
- Pillows and blankets? They are ALL yours! (Unless you have a cat. Then you share your covers more actively than if you had a wife!)
- Toilet seat is always just as you left it.
- Yes, cooking for yourself sucks, but then again, if you get served tuna casserole four times in one week, you only have yourself to blame.
Most of the time, I love living alone, and when lonely, well, that's why one cultivates friendships. And if the house gets too messy and you just don't have the drive to clean it up, invite over a fried! It's the best way to motivate myself into a cleaning frenzy!
