23 is still too young to accept a relationship status in my opinion. Society expects you to do certain things like go to college, get a job, get married, have kids but the one thing I’ve learned is to love yourself and the rest will follow. I’m not a poster child for relationships but I will say I am not afraid to keep trying either. Yes you will get hurt in a relationship but the pain of loneliness seems so much greater. Just my two cents on this. Love yourself enough to try.
