I will turn 39 next weekend and I have realized that I have never really been in LOVE, in relationships of course, but in love... never... anyone else out there like me or am I a freak of nature?

you're not a freak of nature. love happens to people at different times and maybe yours is just waiting to happen, who knows? stay optimistic :) real love is kinda hard to find nowadays, so dont beat yourself up over it

You are reaching a milestone age. 19, 29, 39, 49, 59... 99
When you get to these ages you reflect on your life. I don't think you are a freak of nature but I do think that you have been in love.
With the benefit of hindsight we can examine relationships and compare and assess them to our 'ideal'. Reaching the milestone age places the 'ideal' higher than we usually set it and past relationships seem to be all a waste of time and sh*t.
I bet you are examining your achievements. 40 is a good age. Women are in their sexual prime at this age and attract younger men because you ooze sexuality and experience.
embrace being 40. see it as another episode inyour life and not confirmation of the failure which preceeded it.
I went through this same 'pondering' period this year and it was not nice. I've snapped out of it now!

No, your not a freak, I am 39 too and I use to think I had been in love before, then I met a man who really showed me what love was. So when people say you'll know when you meet them, you will.

YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ARE IN LOVE. I KNOW YOU'VE HEARD THE OL' BUTTERFLY'S IN THE STOMACH THING- BUT THAT IS HOW YOU FEEL. YOU FEEL NERVOUS, YOU FEEL LIKE THERE IS ONLY TWO OF YOU IN THE ROOM. YOU JUST KNOW- AND THERE IS SOMEONE OUT THERE FOR YOU. YOU JUST HAVE TO BE PATIENT AND DON'T LOOK SO HARD, JUST LET IT HAPPEN. YOU ARE NOT A FREAK OF NATURE! SOME PEOPLE DO NOT FIND THEIR TRUE LOVE UNTIL THEY ARE 50- 60 YEARS OLD. IT DOESN'T MATTER YOUR AGE, BECAUSE WHEN YOU MEET THAT ONE PERSON- ANY TIME YOU HAVE WITH THAT PERSON, WILL HAVE BEEN WORTH THE WAIT! HOPE I HELPED! HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Once, really and truly. I don't think it makes you a freak it didn't happen to me until I was 26. The thing about true love is no matter how long it takes to find you, when it does you will find it was worth the wait just to experience it even if only once.

You are not a freak,, maybe you don't recognize what in love is. It's actually infactuation.
Real love on the other hand is what lasts.
I have had the blessing of having both.

Yes, but it was not the man I married. After mu husband died, I realized who I did love , but it was too late....now me and the other guy are just very good friends.

love isn't all it's cracked up to be... the heartbreak just isn't worth it, along with all the other issues that lead to it. keep in mind, not everyone is meant to fall in love, and that many people can live fulfilling lives without ever being in love
