Big mood. Just had the third person tell me, "I'm just not feeling any romantic chemistry" in as many weeks.

Wondering if it's time to give up.

The dating pool is functionally infinite, giving up is like the one possible mistake.

Yeah, but I'm fucking exhausted and tired of being disappointed.

Well give it some thought, why be disappointed it didnt work out with people you weren't compatible with?

Give yourself some credit, you aren't being rejected in the way you think.

I've dated over and under 30 and IMO, after 30 dating gets better. Don't lose hope!

Not cause of your age. I got told that all the time in high school! And college. And after college.

Anyway, I eventually got a partner, but having a consecutive string of meeting romantically incompatible potential partners is not age dependent.

Just to commiserate my neighbor once asked me if I was going to die alone. In her defense she was high and hasn't asked since. That's how it's going for me.

Have you heard of "sexy indifference"? A relative of mine mentioned it. It kind of makes sense. If you don't seem desperate or greedy for a relationship, you'll be more fun to be around and won't care as much either, because you have your own thing going on.

Most people just say don't look desperate.
