Gwenn Anna2 months agoAnyone else feel unlovable/destined to not have a long lasting relationship? question I (28M) genuinely don't feel like I'm capable of being loved properly. I've been in two long-term relationships, one 4 years, the other 5 years, & both relationships ended because the woman I was with came up with strange excuses to end it ("I need to focus on me" and "I can't do this and go for a career at the same time"). I feel like I have so much love to give and when I'm in a relationship I really do got out of my way to show the person I'm with that, but I just don't think they're grateful for it or appreciate it? It puts me off ever wanting to go back into a relationship. If 5 years down the line they can come up with that kind of excuse to end it. I've been putting off getting back into dating for a long time, because it just seems like the dating world now is even more time consuming and confusing. I guess I'm sort of asking for advice from people who have found their 'one' in their late 20s or early 30s, and how quickly they knew it once they've met them? Any obvious green flags/feelings during the dating stage? :)19
