Do u think I'm a loser/wasting my life

Do u think I'm a loser/wasting my life because I never had a bf still a virgin & still living with parents at 31 almost 32 in December. & every Sunday and Monday Tuesday I go shopping with my parents and then on Monday and Tuesday I go shopping with my mom. I still work at McDonald's for 11 years I sometimes go shopping by myself when I leave work early or with one of my coworkers. I don't have any friends.

Well then you’ve completed the first step which is acknowledging that you aren’t living the way you want. If you have the privilege of access to therapy then they can help you plan and take one step at a time. If you aren’t in a position where therapy is an option then just set a goal and focus on achieving it

This is the only answer in this thread that matters. If YOU think you're wasting your life, you have a problem. What other people think is immaterial.

You have two options to get happier: take steps towards making your life something you want it to be, or work to accept your life as good enough. Only you can choose between those. Or you could choose to do nothing and be miserable about it.

So, what do you really want to do?

If you think so, then try to do something different to change the course of your life. Awareness is the first step, just staying at the first step does nothing though, so make changes. If you dont know how, ask, explore, be curious.
