Only being able to get a date online is affecting my self esteem. I really want someone in real life to want to go on a date with me.
How do I stop feeling so depressed?

>depressed
can we stop using this word for 'oh i feel sad once in awhile?'
please? its fucking retarded.
>I really want someone in real life to want to go on a date with me
its pretty shitty htinking, but at the very least, cut out the online dating. if you dont have apps or online sites, then you will be forced to seek people out in real lief. i recently cut out the apps and a week later met someone awesome. taking them on a date to the beach today, dinner over looking hte ocean at sunset, then a ride on the ferris wheel. gonna ask to go steady today.

I've only started online dating very recently, before that I went years being dateless and boyfriendless.
I think crying and feeling sad every day and not being able to get out of bed counts as being depressed.
How did you meet this person and how did you ask them out?

>comes right up to me and introduces himself
>asks me to dance
>30 seconds later were making out
>been hanging out ever since
>i think crying and feeling sad every day and not being able to get out of bed counts as being depressed
if you are depressed, then why throw that at the END of this post? true depression isnt caused by 'LOL I CAN ONLY GET A DATE ONLINE'. if you are truly depressed, go see a psychiatrist and stop worrying about dating.

desu senpai online dating is how it is done now.
Nobody dates in real life, and I hope you don't fall for this "call, don't text" meme or the "expand your social circle" meme or the "join a club" meme.

These thoughts are what are making me depressed. I've tried medication it's not helping.
So basically you went out and someone came on to you? Guys in real life don't check me out.

>ITS LITERALLY ONLY THE FACT THAT GUYS DONT ASK ME OUT THAT I CRY EVERY SINGLE NIGHT

Girls in real life typically don't approach me or talk to me unless I talk to them first, because I don't really give off the appearance of being a friendly person. If you don't have a friendly demeanor, are very outgoing, or are very attractive (and I mean attractive to the point where you stand out a whole lot) than people generally will not check you out.
If you are depressed, then you most likely don't give off this vibe. It has nothing to do with who you are as a person and you shouldn't think of it that way, it's just how it is. Accept it, and if that is actually the cause of your depression then it will go away.
If not, then you have some emotional issue, event, or environment from the past that you have not quite come to terms with yet.
Is this the only thing that you think is "wrong" with you?
