I know how you feel, I've been wondering the same thing myself.

A friend of mine told me once...that the trick is to find someone you are emotionally, intellectually and physically attracted to/simpatico with. But he's never really been able to find all three. He settled for two out of three - emotional and physical. At 46, he finally found his love, and he was set up by a close friend.

There's always hope, I think..at least that's what I keep telling myself.
