I've been single for 7 years and haven't gone on a single date. I'm only 22, and my situation is a little unique. I ran away from home during the worst of my trauma and spent the next 5 years on the road, traveling all over the country. Now that I'm medicated and considerably recovered and living at home, I'm just fucking lonely. I have very few friends here and no way to meet new women. I just feel like I'm missing out on a lot. A friend once told me "just keep working on yourself and you'll find someone." Well, I've been working on myself for years now. I've actually never celebrated this holiday with a SO, ever. 

I'm doing much better now. I'm finally in a place where I feel mentally healthy. But sometimes the loneliness weighs on me.
