I don't know that you should ever give up! Maybe instead of "giving up", you could just go on about your life, doing the things you enjoy, getting out and meeting new people and allow things to happen naturally. If it were me and I was really interested in finding a mate then I would ask God to guide me to the right person. I, too, have gone through those feelings that I'm probably too old and won't ever find the right person but, you know, the less I think about it and the more I just work on being the best person I can be, the less I worry about whether I find someone. I believe that if I am meant to have a mate again and I'm truly wanting my life to be guided by God, He will let me know whether or not there is someone out there for me. Because my very first desire is to live my life according to God's will. Good luck to you, my friend.

I've asked myself that question before and after much thought I found MY answer. I found that the "Mystery Partner" wasn't the real problem. I'm not personally ready to be a part of a mutually beneficial relationship. I don't think I'm a bad person, it's just that I have my own personal issues that need to be resolved before I could ever really be happy with who I am. I know for a fact that until I can happily live alone and be at peace with who I am and can love myself, I'm in no shape to be someone's partner. It wouldn't be responsible for me to drag another person into my world given its current condition. So for ME at least, I do my best to spend my days appreciating what I have and who I am. The most important thing I've learned about myself so far is that I know now that I don't need another person attached to my hip to define myself or to justify my existence. Knowing that and believing it was a big step for me. I can only hope that by sharing my thoughts and explaining what worked for me I have somehow answered your question.

Just ride along with the rest of us and let life happen. You will meet that person someday.

I volunteer at a convelescent home and I know a couple who met there and they're in their eighties. So it's never too late to give up, and even if you do that doesn't mean you'll be alone forever.
Good Luck!

That reality is different for every person. You do what feels right for you. Love comes when you least expect it, so chill and try to accept that it may not happen and see what happens.

There is no such point in someone's life. Once you are breathing the air you are there is a chance for love.

Never give up. Keep plugging away. Pun intended.
