Q: I'm so alone

Hi to all that will read,

I'm 35 and alone. Never married, no children and no friends. I have been going every day with out a phone call from anyone to get together for the past 15 years. The only calls that I get are from bill collectors. The reason for the bill collectors you may ask. I frequent asian massage parlors because they seem to be the only women interested in having any form of intimate relationships with me. Yes, I have to pay to have a some one care about me and it's for only an hour. Then it's back out into the world of neglect.

I seem to have an uncanny nack for alienating people. Co-workers aren't interested in talking to me. They aren't interested in hanging out with me and they aren't interested in working with me. Women aren't interested in me either. A good example is that I've been out with 5 different people from work that all seem outgoing and like to have fun. All have shunned me and I do not hear from them at all, even at work. If I should be so lucky as to get married, I don't have anyone to be my best man. I don't have anyone that will even attend other than my small family....I won't have any friends there because I don't have any friends.

I've been told that, and I quote, I "have the most boring personality of anyone I have ever met". I've literally been told that I'm stupid, meek, mild, annoying and a push over. I think it all goes to the point that I don't want to rock the boat because I want people to like me. I try to be nice and pleasent. I'm not funny at all and I know that's how you win friends. Screw what Dale Carnegie tells you, it's freakin' bogus. I say stupid things and do stupid things, that I don't know why I do. Afterwards I realize how stupid I was to say or do those things.

At any rate, I'm just ranting in frustration and I think that I've accepted that I will be alone. I just wish I had friends. Even though I've accepted it, I don't like it and I can't force people to like me....it's just the way it is.

your family doesn't call you? If you got a women to go out with you on a date that means they like you enough to do that.
i believe there's someone for everyone. is there any other places you go like church. you don't have to be funny to win friends. im silly and i tell jokes that aren't funny. my problem is the opposite i have isolation issues i can be content with not talking to anyone or seeing anyone for a long while.
i honestly think it would be good for you to try to go out more and be around people.

its true you dont have to be funny i kno alot of people who arent funny but are the most popular people in any group. i use my sense of humor becuase its what comes naturally to me and its how i make friends but its not the only way. start watching programs on tv that everyone watches listen to the lastest music, read the newspapers anything that will make a good convo starter. Give advice to people a lot of my friends have been made becuase im easy to talk to and everyone like someone they can talk to about anything.

i personally think Ur to hard on yourself, you should just try to relax, and be secure in yourself, don't worry what other people will think of you , i bet Ur really a cool guy,you dont have to be funny all the time , and when you do meet that special girl, she will think ur perfect just the way you are, i hope you will find some kind of help. like in ur church, or some meetings . but ur not alone, god loves you. good luck sweetie,

Rule #1: Never date people from your job, never. It sounds like you have low self esteem. Do things for you. Take a vacation, travel the world. If you feel happy about yourself, that will outshine and attract people.

that's also my #1 rule. if it goes bad, one maybe rude enough to talk about your sex life (problems) or your flaws which your co-workers shouldn't know about creating an uncomfortable enviroment.

you could play around with the dating lines, myspace, facebook, it others i cant mention. put yourself out there. i remember when i was going through a dry patch,and i am very picky when it comes to men. but the three things i just mentioned it gives you a better chance to meet someone. they will respond if they like what they hear or what they see.
get dressed up and go out instead of staying in the house.
