Not sure how to proceed?

I feel stuck in my relationship. I am not in love with them anymore. However I do value thier companionship and also do enjoy giving them the same. I am also very worried I will never find anyone else to date. I'm in my mid 30s and dating has always been a huge struggle for me. I can years without a date or relationship.

Man, that's a tough situation. Breaking up is never easy, especially when you've been with someone for a while. A few things to think about:

- It's not fair to either of you to stay in a relationship without that love feeling. Companionship is important, but ultimately you'll both end up resenting each other over time.

- Don't sell yourself short - there are plenty of cool chicks out there who would want to date you. Just because it hasn't happened easily so far doesn't mean it never will. You just gotta put yourself out there.

- Maybe try talking to your girlfriend really honestly about how you're feeling. See if she's feeling the same and you can end things on good terms. Or if she thinks there's still a chance to rekindle things. At least you'll know you tried your best.

- Give dating another shot even if it seems hard. Download some apps, talk to friends to set you up. It only takes meeting one cool girl to change everything.

- Also don't rush - take time to be single and enjoy your freedom before jumping into something new. Learn to be happy on your own first.

Ultimately do what feels right for you man. But don't stay in something that's not making you happy just from fear of being alone. You'll appreciate it more if you do meet someone down the road. Stay positive - you got this!
