Dating is wondering why someone is single, then figuring it out.

With your immaculate insight, please answer this. If the world was filled with people who just looks for the faults of why someone is single before anything else, how can somebody recovering from decades of trauma, abuse, emotional neglect, and forced isolation ever find anyone?

Now here's my rhetoric. Am I just doomed because I have failed to find anyone that will actually call and ask how my day was? Am I unworthy of love simply because I never received it? Is this the reality I haven't figured out. Should I give up because nobody will bother sharing more than 10 minutes of their life after identifying my issues? Will people automatically judge me as unfit to date because I'm in therapy and will be for a long time? Will people judge me as unworthy after I failed at everything so many times?

Do you see what kind of despair you presented me? Someone who trampled upon for simply being born? Reading your comments trigger me.
