Something I've learned in life is that there is someone for everyone. Don't lose heart.
LOL - thanks, but I have left that behind myself for ten years now and live very well with it. Imagine myself in a love relationship is for me like imagine myself leaving the western way of life and joining an african tribe. I actually look at people in love like looking at some strange animals in a zoo or some aliens from outer space. I cannot relate to that anymore. So even if a woman would step up to me I would say "Sorry" to her and leave it. I organized my life now as a single and I cannot imagine anymore leaving it. It is how I am now and what I will stay until I die (which is possible,
since there are thousands if not millions of people dying an old age without ever beeing in a love relationship).
I think that's an incredibly sad thought. They're missing out on one of the greatest joys in life.
There are reasons for that though, being religious, a religious leader or follower such as a nun, psychological reasons. In the majority of the cases, I would imagine that those who have not experienced it chose to live their life that way or do not desire to enter into such a relationship.
Of course, there are still many who just cannot find someone, and that is a sad thought. There are so many people who are single of both genders, so it's not as if there's a shortage. I say this without trying to sound sexist in any way.
