I am 28, single and extremely lonely

Dear Diana,
I am a 28-year-old single guy and not loving my present state of affairs. I have tried to find someone for so long now that I have lost my confidence. When I see my friends with their girlfriends and wives, it really upsets me. I feel like a loser in life. Will I ever find a girl? I feel very lonely. I am not bad looking and have a good job in a multinational. But my personal life is not happening. Now my parents have started looking for a girl for me! Will I ever find love?

Dear Darius,
Love happens, my dear. You can't go looking for it. You are 28 and it's not the end of the world for you. What is this big rush? If you put pressure on yourself and are out on a love-finding mission, nothing is going to happen but the loss of self-confidence. Go about your work and life. Do your bit of socialising, meet new people and do not make any agenda of finding that special person. Best of luck.
