Forever alone
(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 12:21 am (UTC)(link)In a way, it's sort of my fault. I'm waaay too picky and most people don't interest me in that way, and the things that do attract me to a person aren't considered positive traits, so even someone who does have them would probably have to hide them most of the time and I'd never know (and out of the tiny pool of people I could be attracted to, how many of them would like me)? I think the only way I'd be likely to meet anyone at all is through online dating or something like that.
Even most porn and erotica is unappealing aside from some fan fiction and occasional pictures I can find on Tumblr blogs.
Then there's the fact that I'm already in my twenties and have no experience. I know some people won't mind that, but I think most people my age would be more experienced, and the idea of someone... teaching me, or "leading" me in any way is a huge turn off. Makes me wish I'd had some awkward and bad sex as a teenager just so I wouldn't be a twenty-something virgin.

Re: Forever alone
I hate to be that person, but you've got to try I guess? I'm very much like yourself anon, maybe someone can help us both.

Gaming forums make me fucking despair sometimes.

Re: Forever alone
But then I look at their user profiles and find out they're 30-fucking-year-old grown-ass men.

Re: Forever alone
(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 12:48 am (UTC)(link)It's not the worst thing in the world and I've mostly made my peace with it. There are definitely times when I think companionship and, especially, just physical intimacy would be really nice and times when I desperately feel the lack of them. But I could have it a lot worse and I mostly get by all right. It'd be nice but there's a lot of things that would be nice.

(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 01:56 am (UTC)(link)(I do worry for when I hit my forties, though, and I am clearly "a career woman." It's a hard place to be in, socially speaking.)

(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 01:23 am (UTC)(link)So with you there. I may have more optimism than you (unless we just caught you in one of those moments of despair - I have them, too) and I'm not completely inexperienced, but I think if I was dating someone and they tried to put themselves in the position of my "sexual mentor" I'd dump them on the spot.

Re: Forever alone
(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 02:54 am (UTC)(link)I'm getting into a career where having a significant other would be really complicated in terms of balancing my work and social life, as well as being truthful about what I'm doing.
Plus I'm hoping it kills me off before I get old enough to retire and care about being alone.
I have really healthy future expectations, you guys.

I fear this outcome because of my glaring personality flaws.
(that's a joke, I definitely see myself ending up in a loveless marriage of convenience)

(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 02:58 am (UTC)(link)Both of my roommates have it figured out, though. One of them is super cool with casual hook-ups, and the other is in a long distance relationship. I have no idea what to do. I'm terrible at talking to guys, and I only have the confidence when I'm drunk. :/

(Anonymous) 2013-02-21 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)I barely let friends get close to me.
No way I'm risking more than that.
Meh. I've come to terms with it.
