I'm falling apart/Never had a boyfriend, Never will..

Recently I suffered the worst.. I've never had a boyfriend, I've been trying to find one for years since I've been in high school, but every time I see a guy I like, I get rejected.. One day my office had to close down and our staff including myself had to be tranferred to a different office where I met this guy who's now my co-worker. We've been hitting it off and we started going out together for 5yrs, 5 wasted years.. I thought something should soon happen between us, until one evening before New Years Eve he told me the most shocking news. He told me he's gay. Now I'm so devastated.. He tried to call me the other day but I didn't answer the phone.. Now I want nothing more to do with him because he broke my heart. He should have told me something like this a long time ago. Now I have nobody.. My closest friends back stab me years ago, my family doesn't give a crap about me.. I feel like I've I fallen in a bottomless pit...

Hang in there Daisy and keep your eyes on the light at the end of the tunnel. There is someone for most everybody, and im sure your no exception. Someone as smart and successful as you will make some guy lucky one day.

you think you got it bad? I'm 27 and never had a gf

That's horrible. I agree, he should have told you he was gay a long time ago. Although it sucks, I don't see it as wasted time. Even relationships that break up aren't wasted time. We always learn something from other people, and grow a little as a result. I've learned something from every relationship I've ever had. And it helps with the next person I meet. Each failed relationship is nothing more than a building block.

It's easier said than done, but don't worry about finding a relationship too much. If you're over eager, guys can sense it and could be scared away. You'll meet someone else, it just takes time.

I'm 30, never dated.

Just wondering if this guy you went out with knew he was gay when he met you. Some guys have a hard time admitting that they're gay, even to themselves. Seems like coming out to you might have been a pretty major thing in his life. Perhaps you could salvage a friendship out of the relationship.
