How to healthily accept never being in a relationship?

Is it reluctant acceptance or a perffered lifestyle?

If you truly don't want to ever be in a relationship, there should be no problem. If you actually do want a partner but you think you can never get one then you're wrong. There will always be someone that wants you back. I know it sounds like something a cheesy normie would say but I believe it

A little bit of both, but I guess reluctant acceptance more-so. I think the main issue is I'm in a big city for work and school hundreds of miles away from my friends and family. I'm living in a shitty cramped apartment and feel socially isolated whenever I have to leave the house. I probably wouldn't even be too upset about not having a relationship if I was able to be in a better, more healthy environment but that's not the case. So going out in public surrounded by hostile or happy people in relationships makes me feel awful.

So you're in a difficult spot in life which is making you feel bad about yourself so instead of working to improve your situation, address your issues and find a way to create more positive headspace for yourself your solution is to just quit and delude yourself into thinking there's some healthy way to accept being helpless in a situation you can obviously get yourself out of.

I'm in the same situation. I moved away from home to take a high paying job in California. The pay is great, and rented out a room here. I have no friends, family, or girlfriend out here.

I think the only real answer is to better yourself in some way that you want someone else to for you. Maybe lose weight and get a six pack, or something like that. I think the real problem with being in our situation is you have no real distractions from yourself, you cant escape yourself when there is no one else there to praise or enjoy you.

Ironically I find myself in a similar situation. I keep telling myself I'll meet a girl eventually but time keeps going by. I have no excuse. I'm not gay, I would love to have a relationship, but I just don't have the drive to make it happen. I don't use any social media platforms which is tough because most of my friends seem to meet & fuck chicks on tinder on a weekly basis. I wasn't too successful in highschool, except for one hookup which resulted in nothing afterward.

It does seem like a lot of dangerous men in the past have had issues with women, or there were no women at all - Anders, Adam Lanza, James Holmes, Randy Staris, Cho, columbine shooters, a bunch of serial killers... because of this correlation I would say it's not healthy to accept loneliness. I'll just tell myself I'll find a girl someday...

There's probably a German word for this.

Yeah I'm aware of the issue but what can I do?

I have been lurking here for a year or more looking for the answer to this. I've seen all of the correct answers. You know it's correct when it hurts to expose yourself to. I like to think keeping up the exposure to truths will desensitize me to them, but it doesn't. Would not recommend /adv/ as a way to properly cope.
