Now I've taken to meeting guys online, sexting, going on a few dates, having sex without wanting anything or trying. And all of these guys have been very honest about not wanting anything serious. There's been two of them in total. It doesn't make me happy, but I'm not unhappy about it. I'm happy when I'm with them, but when I'm by myself, thinking about it, I do feel sad and pathetic. I'd never tell any of my friends or family what I'm doing. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I've settled. If I can't have forever with someone, it's nice to just have a date or a night. And I'm so exhausted of trying to make people want to stay with me.
I don't know if I should go back to trying for a relationship intentionally? Am I selling myself short by willingly going along with these flings? Should I try harder for a relationship that's long-term?
