Am I going to die single?

I am 33F and have never dated anyone. I only had a few crushes in my life where each lasted for at least 3 years. When I have a crush on someone I don't like anyone else. I am straight but never had any attraction towards male celebrities. My friends love muscular tall guys, I don't feel anything for them. I only love my crush and feel attracted towards him. I get emotionally attracted to mostly the people who show kindness and are helpful. I don't feel motivated to find someone through dating or matrimonial apps as I am not over my current crush. He was dating someone and already got married a few years back but I am not able to move on and find someone else. I am not feeling attracted to anyone else nor have the motivation to find someone else. My friends have forced me to open a dating account but every time I think of talking to those profiles I feel like I am cheating.

Yes. You are too old for arranged marriage.
Only guys you will get are bald, fat and aged uncle. Good luck on you single life now

Stop being so negative. If you can't say anything good about someone, just keep your mouth shut. And who says you won’t find a good partner after 30? I've seen people get married at 35 and they’re happy in their marriage.
This reflects your upbringing—you were raised in a family with an orthodox and unhealthy mentality."

Dont take the words of idiots saying that you are over aged and you wont get anyone good. There are lots of really nice people who are above 30. My sister was married at 34, living happily. Many of her friends who married at the so called right age are now divorced. So dont put yourself into pressure. Believe me , there are good ppl around you. And dont for someone to approach you. Just talk. You will find the right person. Dont lose hope.

The only person who can really help you is yourself. See and accept the reality around you. Every life has its own story and struggle and be prepared for some changes and compromises to achieve what you do not want to happen.

All the best.

I came across your post and felt moved by your honesty. It’s rare to find someone so emotionally loyal and grounded. The way you value kindness and deep connection truly speaks volumes about your heart.

I understand you're still holding on to something that mattered deeply — and I completely respect that. But if someday you feel open to letting someone new in, I’d genuinely love the chance to know you better. No pressure, just a quiet hope that maybe something meaningful could grow, naturally and respectfully.

Until then, take all the time you need. You deserve someone who understands and values you just as you are. @NeatAluminium

Lol id say remain single and build on making healthy relationships and friends. Travel spoil yourself and be happy not everyone is meant to be in a relationship. And fyi 33 is still young let things be the way they are and love yourself. Most marriages are just unhappy and living on compromise or are just living for the sake of living.... you live your life, if anything has to happen, it will happen and if it doesn't it's fine, theyre are multitude amounts of ways to make yourself happy.

Difficult to make real friends after a certain age i believe. Plus one will miss on one whole aspect of life no?

Yes, you are a bit late But that dosent mean you will die single..

Moreover age is just 1 factor, it's burried deep into our way of operating that we should get married by this this age etc.. just because we have seen and hear this since the childhood

There are plenty of people out there and maybe someone with the qualities you are looking for. Hope you find them soon

But don't deliberately look for it, just have a healthy lifestyle, meet people, go to gym, travel etc and somewhere you will just find the one

All the best

had you posted this at around 26 years of age, you would be an amazing one in the marriage market for you seem to be - loyal, honest, trustworthy, emotional etc

so what is the diff now? You are quite, I would say quite late but its not over

And this crush you are unable to forget is only on your mind- think of him having s*x with his wife, you’ll slowly start resenting him.

Find someone and marry soon thats it

Getting married is definitely not the same as not dying alone or living a fulfilled life. Start introspecting L, do you have good friends, do you enjoy your work, are your crushes just infatuations because of bad assumptions.

Going on dates or just social events is a good idea to start. It helps you see real people and real situations, which are so different from what people often assume about relationships.
