Seems real love is rare in the dystopia that is the modern world.

I think it is related to how casual the modern world is with sex.

How many relationships in the modern world really last?

Not really. I've dated, but I never truly loved those people. I broke up with both of them because I tried to get attached but just couldn't. I saw them more as close friends than potential romantic partners. Plus, one of them was way too clingy, I fucking hated that. It was the main reason I broke up with him.

Maybe one day I will find someone who is better, but currently my options are limited.

Yeah, once for sure. She was the girl at work I always fawned over. We ended up chatting every once and a while, then after work (restaurant) we went down the street to this truckstop and just sat outside all night and talked. Literally all night. It was amazing.

We talked on the phone and at work and stuff all the time, hung out a lot. One night she dropped me off and home and said "are we going to have sex or what?" I was basically like "Uhh, I don't want to fuck this up" and truly meant it. She persisted, so we had sex. Best sex of my life, and it continued for a few months. I was fucking in love with her so hard.

We weren't ever officially dating or anything, she would just come over and we would fuck, or I would come over and we would fuck. Then I got a little sloppy and sort-of-ish took a buddies side in an argument he had with his girl instead of my girls side (mutual friends and all that shit, that's how big restaurants are) and that was basically it. She stopped talking to me.

I pined for her really hard. Would follow her around like a puppy, drive by her house multiple times every night. Eventually she started dating some piece of shit and that helped me actually get over her. It was the guy that in high school dropped her ass because he was going to college. Ended up knocking her up.

Last I saw she was working at a different restaurant as a waitress (~35'ish) and during the school year at the community college as a lunch lady. He, from what I understand, worked only briefly when they started dating again and hasn't since. Smokes a lot of pot.

I look her up on FB from time to time. She is still hot as fuck, at least to me.

My wife actually kind of looks like her. I don't know if that is weird or not.

Yeah, twice.

First was in high school with a girl I was too much of a wuss to admit my feelings for. We were together a lot in our classes and group of friends, going to concerts and playing video games together and stuff. I didn't think I was good enough for her.

Then me and her older sister hooked up and she found out and I fucked things up bad. She apparently had similar feelings for me. Shadow, you exceptional individual!

Second was in college, but the jobs we took broke us up when we graduated.

Just the way it goes.

Romantically? No.
I've dated several times, but I've come to realize that only two of those dates gave me genuine feelings. I think I was just excited to potentially have something more than a close friend. True love is something completely different, that's all I know for sure.

I used to be scared I'd miss out on something that seemed so fundamental to life, but now I don't even care anymore. I used to have casual sex, but it always felt cold. I think the main thing is that I just want to feel comfortable, and maybe that's the problem.

I currently am. But my own anti social tendencies and early exposure to the internet have probably ruined any chance of it working out. A couple times before, but that was more lust than love.
