Is it normal to give up on love and stop trying all at once?

I've been in and out of recent relationships where nothing goes beyond the sex. It seems that the only girls I attract are the only ones who don't like to cope with anything long-term. Every time I chase a girl I find feelings for and put myself out there, reading the signs and having long thought processes that she likes me, but I am always rejected by the type of girls that I seem to want to fall in love with. I want to find love and it only seems to want to get away from me. I miss having that relationship. But is it normal to say fine enough is enough and I will just live on with my life and won't try ever again. I put my feelings towards this girl and I get nothing in return. No matter how hard I try I always lose. I don't need no life in my life anymore and I don't think I ever do again. Thanks for reading and listening guys. Please leave some advice for me.

    sometimes when we don't try so hard good things happen. the other side is the more energy we put into something the more likely we will find it. That side i reserve for employment or a roommate.

    contrary to popular belief, there isn't someone for everyone - otherwise there wouldn't be so many old lonely people

    my advice? get some hobbies, take some classes, surround yourself with the people you like to be around, maybe you'll get lucky, maybe you won't, but you might learn to like being alone when you have many friends (or realize how many idiots are out there..)

    I know you've probably heard this many times, but hang in there. Eventually the right one will come along. I was totally ready to give up on love MANY times. But then I finally met the right guy, and now we're married. It just takes a little time. I hated hearing that when I was younger, but it turned out to be true. Good luck to you, and try not to give up :)
