I have never been in a relationship. I am in my early 20s. I feel as though everyone my age has experienced love. I am starting to come to terms with the fact that I might always be alone. There is some comfort in that I won't ever fear losing someone else apart from my mother. I have never been heartbroken, so that is a plus. I am not actively seeking out anyone. I understand that not all of us get the chance to experience being loved by someone apart from our parents. The only thing that makes me sad is not having someone by my side in my future who supports me and cares about me. I know that when my mom inevitably passes away, I will be alone since I have no other family members. And that makes me so depressed, since in the present I get very low when I have no one to talk to. When I think about the fact that I will never have a family it brings me down. I know I could adopt but I won' be able to give them another parent or afford it on one income.
