Search Results: dating someone younger

I just absolutely give up looking for a partner. I’ve tried almost every dating app. And am always single. Everyone I’ve known has been able to easily find a partner whether it be through an app or meeting people in person.

I have had “friends” previously that I’d go out with and guys didn’t give me the time of day. I’ve lost a significant amount of weight and regardless of how I look, people don’t notice me. I only get attention from guys that I wouldn’t date and that’s rarely. So that does not count.

Everyone i I know is able to find love without trying and I don’t understand why or how I’m always alone. It’s extremely unfair and I don’t know what else to do. I’m in my mid twenties and even though I’m shy, dating should not be this hard for a young woman. While I do have low self esteem, people have told me throughout my life that I’m attractive and this doesn’t only include family/ “close friends”.

Paid nor free apps work for me. I don’t have friends in real life so I rely on these apps. And people I’ve met are able to find someone without much effort. While here I am alone. I am that woman that is always alone. No friends or partner in my life. I’ve considered losing more weight and wonder if that’ll change the lack of attention I’ve received. What bothers me is someone I used to see for a few months was able to move on to a new girlfriend shortly after I stopped talking to him. I’m not into him anymore, it just bugs me how he is able to move on and find someone likes him while I’m always single. And people told me that I’m more attractive than him/ could do better.

Am i I the unluckiest person ever or is this the way dating usually is for most women? Because I don’t think it is.

I consider 9 years to be a big age gap, not the biggest but big. I told my friend I was seeing an older man who was 30 when I was 21 and she said that that's not an older man. for her it's not until he's 40.

I guess I usually hang out with people older 1 year or 2 younger or older than me. getting involved with someone who was 9 years older than me just seemed like a 'big' age gap to me and thus dating an older man
