OP, there are people in nursing homes who are meeting people and getting hitched. Chances are it's not too late for you, but most people who say they'll never meet someone aren't really doing all they could be doing to achieve that goal. Inexperience won't be a problem with the right partner. Issues could be a problem, depending on what they are, but that's something you have control over and can work upon.

This is tangential to the subject at hand, but I've always found the idea of trying to meet someone rather odd. I've never dated anyone, and part of the reason for that is that the people I've been interested in haven't reciprocated, while I haven't had any interest in the few people who have expressed some interest in me. I'd like to be with someone I care for who also cares for me, but I have absolutely no desire to be in a relationship just for the sake of being in a relationship. Trying to meet people for the express purpose of potentially starting a relationship seems so cold and transactional, like hunting for a flat or buying a car, nothing at all to do with the elements of romance that actually appeal to me.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, same here. I met my partner through a shared interest. Then again, most people meet via a shared interest, work or shared friends, so maybe the dubiousness about a transactional view of relationships is normal.

[(Anonymous)]

Personally, I think it's better for people to learn how to be happy and whole on their own before they go looking for a relationship, but honestly, most people do both simultaneously. I also don't see anything wrong with looking for someone, if you're ready and you want it. You don't go through life expecting a good apartment, a good car or a good job to fall into your lap. Just about everything worth having is something you have to put effort into achieving, so why should relationships be any different?

[(Anonymous)]

For me the idea of pursuing a relationship the same way you'd pursue a job is incredibly off-putting. If I'm going to be with someone, I want them to want me, not a carefully contrived persona crafted to appeal to a list of specifications.

Successful relationships take effort, certainly, but I think there's a pretty big difference between working to maintain or improve a relationship that's come about naturally, and working to make a relationship exist in the first place.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't mean you should literally pursue relationships the way you would search for a job. But waiting around for a relationship to happen "naturally" isn't going to be very realistic for most people. You don't generally wake up one morning only to realize that you're in a stable, long term relationship and it totally just happened all by itself.

People find rationalizations for not putting in the effort in usually find themselves alone, for good reason.
