Being chronically single really sucks sometimes. And I hate when I try to talk about it with people and they say stuff like ‘oh there’s someone for everyone, don’t worry, it’ll happen one day, you just have to be patient :)’
Like I get that they mean well and are trying to be nice/comforting, but when you’re pushing 30 and have never felt desired or wanted or loved in your entire life, it becomes really fucking hard to believe that.
I also REALLY hate when people are like ‘if you’re saying you’ve never felt loved or wanted, you need therapy to work on your self worth and not a relationship’
like no, that’s not what I meant at all. If you’ve had a relationship before, you obviously don’t get it. I’ve got friends and family who love me, but that’s different. It’s not the same thing. When you’ve never been in a relationship, saying you’ve never felt romantically loved isn’t a self worth issue, it’s just a fucking fact.
