I am 30M, and I never had a girlfriend either. I have had crushes but never had reciprocated affection. I've seen friends get into relations, have childhood sweethearts and get married. But I've learnt to accept that fact now. It's true that with this issue, it's difficult to express our true selves to others, our funny side, our quirky bits, our compassion, all of that. But it's okay. I've learnt that it has made me more confident in my abilities and more compassionate about people. I still have good friends, and if things go right, I might get lucky by getting a girlfriend some day in future. We can only hope. Right? Stay strong.
