I've been thru too many attempts at "love" to recount, then having the huge effort of time and emotional energy for recovery. That, plus a 20 year mistake of a marriage, loveless, and endured on my part because of being bullied into staying.

There are worse things than being alone. Please try to embrace and enjoy your alone-ness. Involve yourself in activities which you can enjoy, while also possibly meeting potential partners. Do this for yourself, though, not for the soul purpose of finding a partner.

Taking college classes is a great self-improvement avenue, while meeting people of like interests.
