A lot of good points, and you're right, I have to let go out of the hatred that I have. Both for the women who rejected and the times that in many ways I've rejected myself.
Like you it pains me seeing couples out kissing and hugging. It pains me every time I'm at some restaurant or bar and the bartender/waiter is like "oh just yourself?" like I have some choice in the matter.
Like you said I don't want to be in a relationship just to be in one. That's never what I wanted and even if I am miserable at the moment I'd rather stay single than be in a horrible relationship.
But you're right with all your suggestions. Really I need to find myself again. I lost myself along the way and I need to find what makes me happy again. I am seeing a therapist so hopefully she will be able to help with that.
Sounds to me like you're unsure whether you want a relationship because of love or because you're getting embarrassed of being alone. If it's the latter and you just want a status relationship, there will be a lot of misery that will ensue with that.

You're right, if I'm being honest with myself up until probably a year ago if I was in a relationship it would've just been for the status of being in a relationship. Just for the image.
And I'm well aware that many of the couples that I see kissing and hugging in public could be putting on the same show. That behind the curtain they could absolutely be miserable.
I like to think my thinking has changed though. I actually do want a loving relationship. I want a woman I can experience life with, travel with, laugh with, cry with, etc. I want a relationship where we both want to make each other happy.
