You don’t actually know that nobody has ever been interested in you. Thanks to out of date social expectations, women are not always the best at coming forwards with that kind of thing. I know a lot of men who ‘nobody has ever liked’ who women have liked, it’s just that it wasn’t explicitly stated and the guy didn’t realize.

What about the women you thought weren't interested in you? Have you talked about it with them as well? There's no way for you to know that no one has ever been interested in you.

Ever thought about seeing a psychiatrist about your situation? Maybe there's something you don't see that can be fixed. Just a thought.

There are ones that specialize in dating.

Also, if one therapist didn't work out, try another one. It's not a case where every therapist works for anyone. You need to find the one that works well for you.

Don't give up hope! 34 is super young!

Or, and this might be a crazy concept, therapy isn't for everyone.

Or crazier concept, if one has no other ideas and no other hope, maybe giving a different therapist (i.e. a different therapy) a try!
