Seems that I’m not likely to find love

[Southgirl]

Hey all,
So basically I live in South America and want to date an American guy as I have previously done while traveled there and it has been great.
I am now divorced and wanting to find the love of my life to settle and have kids. I’ve downloaded lots of dating apps with the hope of having a LDR and willing to meet in person in the next few months and start planning for our future.
The thing is that I can’t seem to find no one suitable, the guy I made most connection with, confessed recently that he also likes guys, which is fine by me but wouldn’t want that in a partner. Then I made also a strong connection with another one and then it became weird when he told me there was this other girl, and afterwards tells me he made it all up....

I’m just everyday more and more hopeless.
I feel that I’m just wanting to find genuine true love and being on a distance, just make it seem impossible

Thanks for taking the time to read.

Any reason you want to date someone long distance in America? Seems like a lot of unnecessary hardship...I'd venture to say most people in an LDR would advise against others going out to look for an LDR.

Don't give up. Keep looking.

But be more critical.

What apps/websites are you on? No, please don't tell me. But did you look at the reviews for them? Are they free or is there a membership fee? Maybe you should stick to just one or two apps/websites that have a good review rating and charge a fee.

May I ask why you want to be in a long distance relationship? I would never recommend it to anyone, especially dating someone from a different country. It's a very expensive and long process. Try finding someone closer. I highly recommend against starting an LDR.

I'm sure there is someone out there for you that's a lot closer

I 100% agree. I wouldn't actively look for a long distance relationship. They are hard and you miss your partner more than you can imagine and miss doing all of the things that couples do. It was just fate that resulted in me being in one rather than actively searching for it.

Agree
Don't do it. As much as I love my SO, I'd never choose this. It just happened...
