I am almost 28 and since I was 22 I never dated. I got seriously ill (cancer) and spent a lot of time in hospital. Of course cancer was followed by depression and fear of death. Thank to doctors I am healed now but my priority was to find a job, a good paying one because I went broke during these treatments. My family too. So I got a job in a corporation. But most of the time we are working from home. This is the policy. At other corporate jobs is similar. I simply don't meet men. I would say I am attractive and I hit the gym, but no opportunities. I started going to events in the city - cultural events, conferences and even got on a dating app. On bumble. But it seems it leads nowhere. I have matches, but either they end up being creeps or they don't reply. I have a few friends but all these years of treatments, you know, made us more distant. Or they left the country. It is so hard for me. I still hope a dating app will help me, but for now, nothing. I am also very afraid of rejection. Maybe guys don't like girls who have so little dating experience and sexual experience at my age. I did not chose this life, but I had to fight the illness.

You shouldn't have any problem. Glad you're in remission. You can meet people offline in meetup groups and clubs, also volunteering. Don't go to bars and clubs and online is just full of desperate people looking for hookups and catfish. I'm sure you won't end up alone. It's a really terrible time for everyone who's serious to be trying to date.
Why do you put so much pressure on yourself? Men will notice you. So many of them are just as awkward. Giving up on dating essentially leads you to where you're already at- alone- so you've got nothing to lose. Use this time to focus on yourself, be better at what you love, and enjoy the life you've got. Focus on what's good about you, amplify it, let the men see what they're missing out on.
No you are just running into the issue many do finding a partner where things just work is hard its not easy for most people all u can do is keep trying if u believe u will always be alone fair enough but don't expect that to change if thats what u think
