TigerFire, this is what you posted: I don't why every time I try to make friends with the opposite sex it always ends that way. I must have scared her away. I just don't want to know that I'll be alone for the rest of my life. I hate being alone. I've been alone for the first half of my life so why can't I find someone some girl who I'll give my all to her? I so need to be in love. I think one of my intrests must be trying and failing to have a relationship with some girl. I just want to let everyone know that I also have OCD and I'm still suffering through Depression. I hate being depressed all the time when I want to be happy but the fear of being alone really scares me. Scares me to death. I hate it.

And that is what I responded to; your fear of being alone. I said that I was weird and unconventional; not you! You're just an average ordinary guy. You took me wrong.
You said that you were alone for the first half of your life and expressed that you didn't want to be alone for the rest of your life. I took that to mean that you felt that you had already lived out half of your life! (also I thought that you had stated somewhere else that you were 23; must've been someone else; my mistake, sorry)
I guess what I was trying to communicate to you was that so many people think that they will forever be alone but they usually aren't. I just gave you a personal example. Heck, I thought that I would never live to see my 18th birthday, never get married, and never have kids. I was wrong on all three counts! I will say, though, that I made out the best in the "love" department when I wasn't focusing on it so much!
