I'm nearing 40 and finding a wife and kids seems hopeless
I only started dating at 35 years old. Before that I had crippling social anxiety that I didn't cope with by gaming all the time. Then I went to therapy and quit online gaming. And started dating on dating apps. However it feels there that although I've had countless dates that the women there are adversely selected: people capable of a serious relationship are not on the apps and all the terrible avoidants or just outright cruel people are flooding the apps. After almost 3 years of mostly misery I'm fearing I will never find a serious relationship (best I've managed is 4 months of dating) and I will not experience the joy of being a dad. This makes me incredibly sad, and between the few scheduled dates I have I spend my time wasting on internet, single player games and p0rn. The dates I do have are cozy but rarely lead to second dates or if they do there is nothing past about 3 dates.
