Is there something wrong with me?

For reference I am 22 female, studying at University.

Over the last couple of months, I have continuously started things with men and it is clear that they do not like me as much as much as I like them. I have never had a proper relationship and everyone around me is getting into relationships and once again, I am failing in this department. Is there something wrong with me?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with you, you just haven't found your person and that's okay. It might take a while but that's fine. You're young, you have your whole life ahead you so enjoy it with your friends. Please don't rush into a relationship with someone for the sake of it as it can be damaging.

Sending love

You have to think about the people that you are dating. Are you dating lads that don't commit? Have you considered changing scenes or communities?

Maybe try to attend other cultural events including Jewish Society, African Caribbean Society, Asian Society, American Society, Hispanic Society, Hellenic Society etc.

It’s normal for dating to be painful. Quite often people don’t fancy you as much as you fancy them. With resilience you find something good though
