I'm a guy, I'm 26 years old. I've never been on a date, let alone in a relationship. I had to grow up at a young age and in the process, I never had the experience other people had growing up, never went to parties, never hung out with friends. I grew up with very few friends and now, even they are gone from my life. I don't know who I am, I'm always working and don't ever do anything else cause I have no one to do anything with. I don't know where to go to meet people.

It's hard for me to make friends let alone ask someone out on a date. When I do get to know someone and ask them on a date, they say I'm too nice for them or they look at me as a brother, it's the same thing every time. I've been depressed so badly lately, seeing all my family or what little friends I do have, have someone special in their life. I don't want to hang out with them because I'm always a third wheel. Even if I go up to a random cute girl and ask if she'd like to go out sometime or if I can get her number, I usually get a laugh and a rejection

I think I'm pretty good-looking, I'm on the skinner side but have some meat on my bones. I just don't get it, am I not supposed to have friends or someone at all in my life? It hurts being the third wheel all the time and seeing everyone happy and being able to share life with one another. I'm happy for everyone in a relationship, truly I am, but it's depressing.
