DISINTERESTED!

I don’t know what to do. I’m have no interest in anything! I believe it started when I was a teenager and gradually got worse. I wonder if subconsciously it’s fear. Since I’m not interested in much it’s hard for me to socialize and develop relationships with people and therefore I feel like I don’t have much to offer. I’ve tried several different hobbies like yoga, tennis, photography, and film making but I always lose interest. I have a decent job, but that’s it. I work and come home, so boring. I’m an attractive woman and haven’t had a boyfriend in over two years. I’m lonely, insecure and somewhat depressed. Help please!

When you start a hobby, is it fun at first, then you lose interest?

The reason I ask is because that happens to me. I can’t keep up with any hobby for long. I was told this is because I haven’t found the right one yet.

For the guy problems, I’m afraid I won’t be much help. I don’t consider myself “attractive” so I am afraid to talk to cute guys.

Perhaps your life is moving in a different direction than it needs to be? Is there any goal you thought you would have acheived by now that you haven’t been able to or you just haven’t? It is possible that you are subconsciously trying to change your life, but no one knows how to do that really well, so all it ends up doing is making you miserable with your current life, trying to force a change.

I know this wasn’t much help, and I’m sorry, but you aren’t alone. As long as you want the help, we will offer as much as we can.

Wish I was closer to you, haven’t had a girlfriend for a long, long, extra long time!

My advice will be to join a Toastmasters club near you or an organisation where you can do something for somebody else.

Don’t give up, change your mindset which requires hard work, a lot of courage and determination.

Good luck and blessings!

This could sound a little weird but try a hobby of mine…watch sports. I know at first this doesn’t sound like such a great idea but, think about it. I watch A LOT of sports of any kind. i play them too,but u don,t have to. But when i get caught up in an Orioles game when their making an unbelievable comeback or When i watch a Tarheel game its like i’m in different world. i am a fan by nature. I live to Love. for better or for worse. (besides its a good conversation starter…i’d love 2 have a gf that was interested in sports.) And if this sounds pointless then i’m srry i couldn’t help but this is what helps me. :)
