Search Results: he wants to get engaged

I am very heartbroken right now.

I am 27 and never had a real girlfriend before. Meanwhile, I am watching most of my peers get married and/or have kids of their own.

I seek a woman who has never had her first love and has never had any boyfriends before, especially from her youth.

I just recently was crushed. I went on a date with this girl (17) last weekend who met my criteria. We talked for a month online before meeting. The date only lasted a few hours and I wasn't her type. She ended our date, and not only did she not want to be friends but she cut me off completely.

A year before that, I traveled to see this 18 year old girl who also met my criteria and she didn't think I was her type either. We talked several months every day before we met. Sadly, she is now engaged to some new guy.

I feel like just giving up. I am tired of starting over. I feel it is already difficult to find a woman who meets my criteria as it is. I don't know what to do.

I always wanted to have a girlfriend, a wife, and a family of my own. I feel this will never be a reality.

I've become more and more anti social as of late and it's progressed to me being borderline territorial with people entering what I believe is my own space and boundaries which are not to be crossed for any reason by anyone except my girlfriend or my dogs without being made unwelcome and outright told to leave up to or including forcefully removing the person from my space.

It's also trickled over to the point where I get frustrated when people who aren't my girlfriend text me as every time a blue light appears on my phone, I hope it's her as I only want to talk to her and have little to no patience for wasteful banter with anyone else. But my girlfriend, I'd talk to her about anything all day long and love every minute of it no matter the topic.

I find myself leaving family time early as I get bored and feel drained being around so many people at one time, especially since I don't enjoy banter with anyone else and all they want to do is exactly that, banter or even gossip, which is an action that makes me instantly lose any and all respect for anyone engaging in such activity to speak poorly of someone behind their back.

Are you anti social?
