Macd,

I think that A Red Panda really got to the core of your on going issues when it comes to your relationships in life.. You say you have done therapy in the past and it didn't help? Well Maybe you need to retry it with someone else. Im sure there are a very small % of young girls that would get involved with a man your age.. but that is very very small. Kinda of like George Clooney finally realizing I am alive and show up at my door to wisk me away on his white stallion.....

So a reality check on your part might need to be your first "self grounding" " does ____ like me romantically?" If its someone providing you a serivce . coffee, store clerk, etc. They are being friendly because its there job. People chit chat and add people to Facebook all the time. She had no reason to talk about her breakup or seeing someone new.. So stopping and doing a self check /self grounding is in need, that is a learn able skill.

Obviously you are struggling with relationship issues , but I bet there are many people here that would benefit any advice you could offer them..

I have on many occasions not be doing so great myself and I am walking myself in a corner.. I just stop.. I choose to help others with advice or a hug .. Often the best medicine is getting out our own head and helping others ... By offering others support or just clicking Thanks could not only help them but you also. Many people have supported you in your threads.. Thanking them for there time or advice would be a very kind gesture.

You have been given tons of support and stellar advice.. When your constantly walking in a circle best thing to do is step out of that circle and stop beating and trying to feed a dead horse.

Good luck
