    You are still very young Rosie .  My sister did not meet her partner until she was 35 and she did go on and have children .

    Could you volunteer somewhere or join a walking group or art classes for example to meet people other than through dating apps .

    Petalinthenwind,

    I am interested in joining a yoga class. Maybe that will help me open up and meet someone outside of dating apps.

    Dear Rosie:

    My suggestion in regard to where to start is this: look at your current relationships with the people who were part of your childhood (mother, siblings, others), and figure out what about these current relationships is helping you and what is hindering you.

    Dear Rosie:

    “I honestly would trade everything in to find a decent connection with someone…  It’s disappointing to have empty connection after empty connection” –

    – your connection with me has been empty for the last 7 days, and if I didn’t post to you today, likely it would be forever-empty. You may not reply to this message, in which case, the connection would indeed be forever empty.

    “I want to be open to all the good things that life has to offer, but I am not sure how to let it in” – I know that I am not a romantic prospect, but I am a person reaching out to you. It might help you to be open to me, to let me in, in the context of your thread- a good practice for you in regard to being open to people irl.

    “It’s disappointing to have empty connection after empty connection” – maybe the connections you have with others are empty of you being nice. I noticed that in the connection with me, you didn’t say thank, not once, no word of appreciation for my time, effort and intent to be helpful to you (however unsuccessful I was).

    I am willing to work on myself, if that’s what it takes. I’m just not sure where to start… If you have any suggestions on where to start that would be a great help” – you can start by posting back to me and thanking me for reaching out to you.  Saying thank you and being minimally nice doesn’t cost you money and it can go a long way for you- a great start!
