Fucking hell dating is tiresome

I dont see how people manage to do this shit for years and years. Im only a 17m, so I have plenty of time ahead of me, but this past year alone has been fucking exhausting. When I first decided I would try my hand at dating, I got lucky with a girl who liked me back on my first try. Unfortunately that was short lived and she ghosted me. So, over last summer and the beginning of fall, I tried talking to around 15 girls. Some of them talked back, some of them just ignored me, but in the end none of them went anywhere. I was still single.

I got my first girlfriend back in November, but it was only until a month after we started dating that she came out as asexual. At the time I was still a virgin who wanted to have sex, so that relationship didnt really work out. Then, in early January, the girl who ghosted me came back into my life as my 2nd girlfriend. I thought things had really changed for the better, but 2 1/2 months later she dumped me.

So now here I am in mid May, alone. There was a girl I thought I had a chance with who ended up just liking me as a friend and now has a boyfriend. Then there's a girl I work with who wont quit playing games long enough to tell me whether she does or doesnt like me. But as of now, a year into my dating experience, Im fucking exhausted of this shit and it isnt gonna get easier.

I seriously dont understand how people do this for years on end. I feel like Im gonna lose all hope and have a mental breakdown if I have to do this for even just 2 more years
