I might be misreading this, but in my current mindset seeing where things go means accepting I will be alone and lonely for the rest of my life.

I must agree that it is nice to have friends but in my experience becoming friends with somebody you have or had feelings for always ends in her choosing for a partner. And me - it is always me - being left behind broken hearted and even more anxious the next time I dare to hope for something more.

Maybe I should not be wondering what is wrong with me then but rather how to cope with a life that is rendered completely meaningless for lack of social relations.
