44M here, been perpetually single for years. Really wanted kids but missed that boat probably.

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong or why women completely ignore me. It’s like pulling teeth just trying to strike up a conversation on dating apps, and the few women I’ve gone on dates with are completely incompatible for me or I’m not attracted to them.

I’m short (5’6”) but fit and relatively good looking/put together. I have a ton of crazy hobbies and a really adventurous spirit that I would love to share with someone.

I don’t have a huge social network but the few friends I have are sympathetic and incredibly supportive. I’ve asked them to set me up with someone but they don’t have single friends.

I’m so sad about how my life turned out that I think it’s beginning to show when I interact with people. What gets me is I don’t have a reason why - It’s just the luck of the draw I guess.

I’ve joined clubs and even started my own which were a total disaster. I’m just ready to throw in the towel all together and move out to the middle of nowhere to be alone. I can spend my life rockhounding and photographing lizards.

Thanks for listening to my depressing TedTalk. Don’t be me.
