I (24f) go on all these dates, but nothing ever goes anywhere. Even if I start hanging out with someone a few times, nothing just ever works out. Nobody wants what I want. I’ve tried everything. I’ve gone to therapy, I’ve focused on myself, I’ve tried to not take dating so seriously, I’ve tried to take dating seriously, I’ve tried to take breaks, I’ve worked on myself. I just don’t get it. I know they say you need to be happy with yourself, but im also tired of being single. I want something meaningful and it starts to feel awful when nothing is meaningful and no one wants to take you seriously or have proper feelings for you.
Don’t get me wrong guys take me on nice dates and are nice, but nothing comes out of it in the end. I finally met someone I could have potential with in quite some time, but I forgot to answer him last night and texted him this morning saying that and he hasn’t responded all day. I feel like it just triggered me a bit. Everyone says it happens when you least expect it, but I’ve gone through so much with dating I don’t know to even believe when they actually want a relationship.
My last relationship was only like two months and he was cheating, it didn’t feel like a real relationship. The last time I was in love I was 20 and I just want that again.
TLDR: Just ranting about being single still

Ill give you the same advice as I give guys. Focus on being above average not just average. Work on your appearance it could even be clothing and make up hairstyle lipstick even if thats your thing. Also you should be flirting but just not going overboard with it. Too much can be a bad thing. You want to have the guy wanting to see more of you. Make sure he walks you to your car or his car to say goodnight ;). Make sure you go on a fun date with him if he suggests something that doesnt seem fun ask him to do something else.. How about if he tries hugging you move his hand down to your butt. Let me tell you a assertive woman like that will make me smile and definitely have me wanting to contact her to see her again.
Maybe you should go on a date a guy not as good looking that’s more into you than you are into him and he will treat you good
What do you want? Like obviously non-cheaters is a start, but I can’t tell you why you can’t get what you want without knowing what you want.
Some people date hundreds of people before finding their person, some people marry their first kiss.
Sounds like you’re dealing with simps. Naturally you make it difficult for simps and they hate that, but they will fake it until after they get tired of your bs or get in your pants.
This is a very common sentiment in this sub so let me be blunt. You don’t DESERVE a relationship. Your not ENTITLED to one either. Most women don’t understand this. Just because you exist; men will ask you out and have sex with you but in order for them to take you seriously, you actually have to do something other than just exist.
