I have been very lucky. I'm 45 years old and I have been with the love of my life for 26 of those years, 20 married.

But, I've watched a lot of my single friends for years stumble around trying to find someone, anyone. Therein lies the problem. Don't try so hard. It'll come to you when you're not looking for it.

Also, you have to like yourself and being alone with yourself before anyone else can. And lastly, as I recommend all the time, if you can, get a dog or a cat. They will love you unconditionally and take your focus off your troubles.
