Do you ever worry that you won't meet anyone?

Question

I worry that between work, sports and my friendship circle I won't meet anyone new, and I'll be doomed to be alone for good. Anyone else got this concern or am I alone here too?

Answer 1

Yes exactly! I've been feeling that way alot lately. But I continue to hope to find someone, times chances of finding someone seem likely. I feel like I will be alone forever! And no your not alone here; were alone together:P

Answer 2

"If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you're not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone." -Demotivators.....:P

Joking.

I used to feel the exact same way, and that feeling was one of the things that caused an extended bout of depression which brought about suicidal impulses. Thankfully, I was able to get a handle on all that.

My answer to you, though, would be not to worry. Unless you force yourself to live as a complete and total hermit and never have any human contact, you *will* meet new people, eventually. It's a statistical certainty. There are just too many people in this world, and everyone is so interconnected. Even the most anti-social (as I was) or busy (as you are) don't have to be alone forever.

Unless you want to be. There's an unwarranted stigma against people who choose to be alone, but that's another Q/A....;)

Answer 3

Ya I am. My circles of work and friends are way to tight. And at work its impossible to meet someone cause they schedule your breaksyou take. And when they do you hardly ever see anyone else on break at the same time. It kind of sucks I see certain people at work I would like to get to know. But my work environment is hard like I said. Oh well here is to the lonely hearted.

Answer 4

O my soul!! i thought that i am the only silly one feeling that way. I've been dumped, and dumped and dumped and I'm all single and alone! i really hates it. there is no one that i really meet. only work and after that going home. and everyday the same people. although i do change my daily routine and I'm going out - meeting some old friends. well, i guess everything will happend on the right time and right place...

Answer 5

Ithink everyone feels like that at one time or another, you just have to be open minded and try new things. Maybe branch out on your own a bit. That is the only way you will allow someone new to come into your life.

Answer 6

Definitely.I have to battle against men who mistreat their women,who cause them to have a low opinion of men in some cases.Many women are so scared to date because of past relationships that they would rather be just friends only.Then there are some women who are into "man sharing" because they don't feel confident that there are any good men(especially good ,Black men) out there.I'm off the soap box now.

Answer 7

No I know I am a nice looking guy and one day the lucky woman will claim her prize. So don't think like that u will meet someone.

Answer 8

Don't worry you are not alone in this at all. there is many people that wonder if they're going to be alone. I do all the time.

Answer 9

I did ..when I was younger and didn't have much alternatives but thinking of boyfriends , time changes and you learn to have priorities, so...I don't worry anymore about it, I believe that if it's going to happen ,it will...no matter what you do...meanwhile I have many things to keep me busy ..:) good luck

Answer 10

TRUST ME- A million + people have this concern. At least you have friends; not all of us can say that! .....and as the saying goes- better alone than w/ a jerk( even though we all lose sight of that sometimes)...
