Hello everybody. I hope this question is ok on here to ask. I was wondering how can I become confident when I’m undesirable in a romantic sense. Long story short: I’ve never been on a date in my entire life time as no woman has/was ever shown me any interest in a romantic sense or possibly could turn to a romantic sense. With these events along with my peers having success (whether it be short and/or long term), I realized that I’m undesirable. As expected, this realization has severely damaged my confidence.

I personally doubt this discovery will change anytime soon (maybe forever), I do know my confidence can change. However I also wonder if it’s even possible as well. With confidence, I see it as need for a ton of internal validation (it’s the mo for yourself but I think you need some external validation as well. Not so much as needing external in order to be happy but more so to give a sense of your internal confidence showing off in a positive way. I think the two go hand in hand and if you have one (or even rely too much on one) but not the other, it’ll slowly chip away your confidence.

Any and all answers would appreciated for my question.
