Hi.

I am alone in the world. I am 27 years old and never had a girlfriend, I lost my parents very young, there was never a surprise birthday or birthday cake for my birthday. I spend the holidays alone locked in my room I left Africa I have just moved to the US for 3 years, I work and after that I am alone locked up. I have tried dating apps, gone to clubs and other places but no girl is interested. For a few weeks my mental situation has deteriorated day by day, I feel unimportant I have already thought about suicide several times ... Help me.
