Would you rather be lonely and bitter the rest of your life?
Dating takes practice and skill just like everything else. The more you do it, the better you get at it. Chalk up your past experience as a lesson learned, and get back out there.

I recognise that I made a mistake, but I don't need a therapist to confirm that.
