Is there a way to completely give up on the idea of having a romantic relationship? No matter how much I try to convince myself, the sadness is overwhelming and I feel like a complete failure. I'm 33 now, but still couldn't figure out how to get a gf.Could some kind of mediation help me accept this feeling?
I think trying to transcend a deep biological desire like that is a fool's errand. I recommend you try therapy, preferably a male therapist, if you feel this hopeless. Also read Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground and The Courage to Be Disliked.Socializing and making friends can take some of the edge off.
