First off, just understand that I'm not here for a pity party, I'm not here looking for people to feel sorry for me. I'm here to share my feelings and see if anyone else out there feels the way I do.

I'm 26 years old and been divorced 2 years. I was married to an abusive asshole who cheated on me multiple times. Thankfully we did not have children, even though I wanted kids early in life. So here I am, 26, no kids, no husband, a career in social work that sucks the life out of me and takes all my time. I've dated off and on, but can't seem to find someone who is serious about having a relationship. In fact I'm currently dating a guy who I've been dating 4 months and he still insists he's not ready for a relationship. And he shows it in how he treats me. I really like this guy, but it seems like I'm the last thing on his mind. He can't commit to plans with me, he hasn't seen me in weeks because he's always got other plans. I let myself be treated this way in my marriage, and now it's happening again. I know I deserve better and I should just move on, obviously he's not as into me as I am with him.

Which is why I'm giving up on this dating thing. I keep ending up in situations where the guy makes me feel like I'm not good enough. I'm to the point that I wonder if I'll ever find someone who thinks that I'm awesome and wants to be with me and treat me right. I wonder if I'll ever get to have a family like I've always wanted. I always wanted to be a young mom, but I think that ship has sailed.

Anyone else ever feel like it's just not gonna happen for you? Because that's how I feel and it hurts.
