Earlier here on the forum I have written that there is one woman whom I was interested in inviting to coffee in a cafe, but it was not successful. She was not interested in. I am such a loser.

Better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all.

Well. I was always told there’s another one around the corner.

Just because she’s not interested doesn’t mean you’re a loser. Lots of times very attractive and successful people get turned down. It’s just part of life. I know it hurts, but don’t let it get you down too long.

I am just feeling lonely as I am doing now. I feel that I would need somebody in my life. I have felt loneliness for a long time. Already in 2013, ten years ago, I wrote about loneliness here on the forum. But I have no energy and courage to try to find somebody to my life.

If you don’t try, you’ll always be alone. If you’re not ready to go on a dating site or something, try local clubs or sports. You could join a bicycling club, or a hiking club. You could join a bowling league or a book club. What are your interests?

Her not being interested may have nothing to do with you.
She may not be interested in a romantic relationship for her own personal reasons. Some people are not looking for friendship or relationships.
Feeling lonley is hard. I feel lonely and I am in a relationship but its so hard for me to connect with my partner and others in the real world.
I find your posts usually so interesting usually and don’t think you can be a loser.

Sometimes I also feel like a looser. There are some people who reject me because of my mental illness. That’s one of the reasons why I don’t try to date. Because of rejection.
It’s said that people with schizophrenia isolate themselves, but what can we do if we try to meet people and those people don’t accept us? Sometimes or at least in my case isolation is not only a choice, it’s an obligation.

@Katherine85 I dont think you need to write off finding someone. You are s very thoughtful person no reason to believe you will remain alone if you do not wish it.
And your the one who advised me to keep my mental illness to myself. Dont reveal it to your date.

I have met people at the facilities of our local mentally ill association. Somehow I have no energy to find somebody. In addition I am becoming old, 56 in this year and some people at my age are already grandparents. I live in a little town and options are limited. Sometimes I just want to sleep.

I feel that isolation just happens and we do not have necessary social skills to connect with people.

What do you think? What is love?
“What is love?
Baby don’t hurt me
Don’t hurt me
No more…”

In my little town there is nobody around the corner. I must just accept that I’ll be alone until the day I die.

Love is a numbers game 
If you try only once, I would place my bet on you losing.
Try 10x at least!
