Don't know where else to go or who else to talk to about this. I'm gonna be 40 this year, no girlfriend, no wife, no kids, no prospects, no hope. My family name dies with me. My friends have all gone on to get married and have kids. I've made many attempts to get out there and date, but I always get relegated to "just friends" status, and subsequently we eventually grow apart because it's difficult to be just a friend to someone you want to be more than a friend to. Nonetheless, I have accepted my fate and will push forward while I still can, but feeling that I can at least talk about my struggles with other people who will understand them better than anyone else. Thank you for listening, and to the moderators of this site, thank you for accepting me.
