Not everyone is cut out to be in a close relationship. If I had known what I do now I would have stayed single all my life. I live my single life now. I don't have any desire to date & refuse to beat myself up because I don't. I have friends I do things with.

It is important to accept you as you are more than feel bad because you aren't some other way. My EX should have stayed single all his life too.

Much better to stay out of bad relationships than to be miserable in one or fighting to make it work
