2023 was a bad year for me

As 2023 ends, its another year in the book for me. This year I turned 26 and I tried for once to go out there and talk to women and potentially find my first girlfriend. I was super confident in myself and I found nothing but disappointment, rejection after rejection and being told that im too ugly and that no one would be stupid enough to fall in love with me. I reflected on that and realized that these people are wrong for thinking that but then again I thought maybe there right, theyve had relationships, theyve had partners, they've had sex things at my age ive never done. I think it's time for me to move on this phase of my life. I think for me its best never think about relationships, just continue to work 50 hours a week and continue to do my masters part time on the side. Maybe this whole "love" arc isnt for me. I hope you all enjoy your 2024 because im sure it will be alot better than mine :)

@diplomaticBirch7532 hi there, birch. thank you for sharing this with the community.

I'm truly sorry to hear about the challenges you've faced this year. It's disheartening to experience rejection, but it's important to remember that your worth is not determined by others' opinions. Focus on the positive aspects of your life, such as your dedication to work and pursuing your master's degree. Love and relationships unfold in their own time, and it's okay to prioritize personal growth and well-being. Your journey is unique, and you deserve happiness and fulfillment. As you navigate the coming year, may it bring you unexpected joys and opportunities for self-discovery. Take care of yourself, and remember that your value extends far beyond others' perceptions.
