    Lol only thing husbands are for is sex.

    I'm trying to imagine this picturesque scene of my husband and me holding hands and drinking coffee while gazing in each other's eyes.

    It's more like drink coffee in the office together while doing unrelated tasks with random commentary and holding hands was honeymoon phase... like 16yrs ago.

    Cute post tho. I giggled.

    How bout enjoy being single ✊

    Some of them have therapy. I suggest you try it.

    Therapy would be really good for you!

    Yes, I agree because, well ...

    "(In the past years my weight ranged from 77-86 lb, usually being closer to 86) Now my weight is 97 lb and I feel uncomfortable with that because I'm not used to being this weight. So I would like it to go back to being under 90.

    I have been beating myself up for not losing weight, but here's the thing. I am 28 years old and have never been on a date or had a boyfriend. I should actually be congratulating myself and proud of myself for the fact that despite all these years of loneliness, my weight has not gone past 100 lb. Sure, I gained weight due to emotional eating, but it has never gotten above 100 lb and it probably never will.

    I feel hopeless and empty as a result of never having experienced romance before. The silver lining, though, is that my weight is the one thing in my life that I can control. I may not be able to experience love, but no one can take my weight away from me. That is the one thing I am most proud of. I could have been sitting here emotionally eating until my weight is in the triple digits but that is not going to happen. In fact I exercise 4-5 hours a day so I am able to eat but yet maintain my weight. So I am proud of myself for that."

    You should lift !! You should focus on being the best version of you that you possibly can. You should set personal goals and then smash through them. You should embrace who you are and find contentment in that. Find a worthy cause and dedicate some of your time in volunteering to help toward that. You will find that when you give of yourself to help others that you will be the one that will be blessed in the process. You might also meet some really awesome friends along the way.

    I go out with friends for a cuppa or something to eat or whatever… you don't need another half todo that stuff with!

    When it comes to sex, you can either get a friend with benefits, do one night stands as some girls like todo these days (that one personally isn't for me lol) or make friends with a *kitten* or vibrator or keep it old school and use your fingers

    Have fun

    You guys are right. I could have a coffee on my balcony or enjoy myself while single. It cheered me up reading your comments yesterday. But today I feel pretty down and miserable. I just don't see why other women can get married and have kids and I can't. What makes me so much worse than them? Even Hitler and bin Laden were married, how come no one wants to be with me? I haven't killed anyone.

    I don't understand why men refuse to go on a date with me. Here's the thing. Usually when I meet men at social events or cashiers and random guys like that, I talk to them for only 5 minutes. I tell them my name and hobbies and ask their name and hobbies and then ask if they would like to go on a date sometime and they say no. How can they judge me before t hey even know me? If they went on a date with me and found out I was horrible and rude, OK fine. But they do not even know me. Are you really seriously telling me that they know all about me and what my personality is like within a 5 minutes conversation? It's not even 5 minutes honestly, it does not take that long to say our names and hobbies and what we do for a living. So how can they judge me within 5 minutes? Also I walk past men every single day, I am outside every day for 4-5 hours but no men approach me asking me on a date, why are they judging me when they don't even know me. I guess they don't like how I look?

    I suspect its less about how you look but more about your personality and their perception of you after five minutes. You come across as being quite self engrossed and negative (based on the history of your posts this time round plus those from a couple of years ago).

    Why do you feel the need to ask every man out after 5 minutes?

    I don't ask EVERY man out, I haven't asked my father out because I'm not into incest plus I walk past men every day without asking them out. But I ask SOME men out and they say no because they judge me! I am having a very bad day today because I'm ANGRY that I can't have coffee with a man, IT IS NOT FAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Go ask your dad.

    Why is having coffee with a man the be all and end all to you?

    Maybe they say no because they're on MFP....?

    Wow. Seriously hun. You need to be working on yourself before you bring another person into your life. From what I've read, you have some issues going on and I would use this time with you being single to fix whatever needs fixing before you start a new relationship.
