I'm only 18. I got out of my first and only serious relationship last january. We went out for a year. We broke up. At first i was really stand offish with her. As i am with all girls. But after like 7 months she slowly broke down my walls. I opened up to her about everything. I cried to her. Told her all my secrets. But i was too controlling and she broke up with me. Technically i broke up with her but she told me to never speak to her again.

 

I haven't been with a girl since then. Haven't even wanted to be with a girl to be honest. I have been working out and focusing on cash.

 

But lately i am starting to feel really lonely. I don't really have anyone. No friends that are guys. All my guy "friends" are more like acquaintances who just want to party with me or talk business. I can't open up or talk to them. All my female "friends" are more like **** buddies or girls who have crushes on me. I have some family but they are really dysfunctional and i can't be myself around them.

 

I really miss having someone to talk to about everything. Having someone who i could tell cared about me.

 

But i'm scared to get into another relationship. I feel like maybe i should just be alone so i can be self sufficient and not have to depend on a girl to be happy.

 

And on the other hand i kinda feel like no girls ever going to want me once they get to know me. I come from such a messed up home. My life has been filled with turmoil. I was molested. Been involved with drugs and gangs and things of that nature so maybe it is best that i stay alone idk. What do you think?

Try this.

 

Date but don't focus on getting a girlfriend.

 

Just go on dates with women you like. Find a group of friends including young un coupled women and hang out and hook up with them. Date freely. You are young and trying to lock yourself into a relationship at your age isn't wise. Odds are it won't last and either you or they will just cheat.

 

Save looking for a GF, then wife for your 30's and 40's.
