Is it time for me to give up on love and finding someone?

It's time you focused on being happy as a single man. Not everyone has to be in a relationship to have a happy and fulfilling life. Don't give up finding love completely but don't be so focused on it either. You are only 35, some people are in many crap relationships before they eventually find the right match for them. You need to get things into perspective every time you are feeling at your lowest. At least you are healthy and have your freedom, make the most of it. Some people have terrible illnesses but still try to make the most of what they have. Why not help people who are worse off than yourself, perhaps volunteer for a worthy charity and reap the emotional rewards of helping someone worse off than you who'd appreciate your help. Stay away from people who make you feel negatively (as best you can) this is your life, you only get one so make the most of it and don't let nasty individuals spoil your quality of life. I can't understand why people are so obsessed with being in relationships to the point where their lives seem to depend on it. I'm 28 years old and i've never been out with anyone. I might be more unique than most folk but i'm still here and being independent hasn't done any harm. It's only other peoples narrowmindedness that often makes one feel badly about themselves, I know, i've been there.... often. Just move on, people can be like that sometimes but there are some nice ladies out there, you just haven't met one yet.
