I just graduated college and didn't make a single friend all 4 years I was there. I also have never had a girlfriend and I've wanted one more than anything for longer than I can remember. I'm extremely lonely. I feel like it's only going to be harder now that I'm out of school.
I'm considering trying online dating, but also very scared to do it as my anxiety is bad. There is also the problem that I don't have a job and can't just say I'm a student anymore. I feel like no girl is going to take an unemployed 22 year old guy seriously. I am looking for a job, but I apply very selectively as my anxiety only permits me to do certain things. I already bombed 2 phone interviews since I started my post college job search last week. One was my dream job too. It's really discouraging. I feel like it's going to take me months to find a job.
Is getting a job a prerequisite to getting a girlfriend? Should I bother with online dating before I get a job? There is also the issue that I have no friends so all my profile pictures are going to be selfies. Is this going to turn girls off as I have no "social proof"?
I want a girlfriend so bad. It's making me so depressed seeing people my age getting engaged when I've never even been on a date.
