    Being single can be tough when you really want to be in a relationship, OP. You can do all the right things, joining clubs, keeping busy etc etc but that doesn't take away from the loneliness. There's no quick fix for that really. You kinda just need to come to a place where you can be okay with it.

    Very true. People say join clubs etc but that will not solve how you feel now.

    Thanks for all the replies, definitely food for thought in some of them. I was out at the weekend and a guy came over to chat to me. He seemed normal enough and asked me on a date. There would be over a two hour distance between us and he seemed keen to meet up so I went along with it and suggested somewhere halfway between us. He took my number and texted me and snap chatted me at the end of the night to know was I still on for meeting up and I said I was. So he sent a snapchat Sunday night but I wasn't sure if it was for me so I replied back and we chatted back an forth.
    I had a feeling he wasn't interested but I said I'd take matters into my own hands like I felt I needed to do following advice on here, so texted him and after two messages he stopped replying.
    I think at this stage I'm just laughing at myself at my lack of luck here. Why would a guy be so keen to get you to go on a date when you first meet and then not even want to talk? I suppose drink had something to do with it. It's like I don't have a problem being chatted up and the last three nights I've been out since September I have been chatted up but the other two guys were way too pushy and not my type. This guy seemed to be more of my type so I give my number and same old story happens again.
