You can always make friens in this forum or you can join charity organisations to do charity work to help the poor, needy and elderly. You won't feel so lonely if you keep yourself busy in doing good work for society. And who knows, you might meet a nice kind lady as a wife.

Thank you for your kind advice. I do a bit of voluntary work; but so far not been lucky to meet a single lady. The problem can be in me as I am by nature introvert and I am very critical about myself. These stop me from exploring and finding the one.

Agree with this. As long as you're not struggling to make ends meet, you're already fortunate. You could explore these options:

1) Casual Gatherings/Outings
Join forums/associations/etc and meet more people. There are lots of other people around facing the same situation as you. Meet more people and make friends with them. Connect with them on a personal level and establish long-term relationships (friendship, or even more).

2) Your Interests/Hobbies
Find out what you enjoy doing, and join associations/clubs in Singapore that specially cater to your hobbies. It's easier and more fun to make friends that way.

3) Re-connect
Re-connect with your long-lost friends from school, etc.

4) Explore the possibility of getting a Girlfriend/Wife
There are an increasing number of singles in Singapore. Go on dates, etc. There are many avenues specifically catered to these (e.g. ://.meetup.com/cities/sg/singapore/singles/). Go in with an open mind. Even if you do not find a wife there, you may be able to find some good friends.

5) Social Work
Help the needy; it's fulfilling.

The main point here is that you're not alone. There are many Singaporeans out there who are in the same as you. Try to attend events and find friends there. Often in life, you do not need to have too many friends. Having 5 very close great friends would be more than enough.

Good luck! :)

Thank you for your detailed advice and ways I can increase my chances. I will be on lookout for small gatherings that are being organised here in forums (but I don't want to get into any trouble and hopefully the organising person will post and disclose about his/her whereabouts so that people don't get too worried to join). As I mentioned in another reply, I am introvert by nature and highly critical about myself; if I can get over this, I am of the opinion that things will get better.

I shall explore the meetup website. Didn't know it existed.

No need to find the one. You can be alone and yet not lonely. Just like you can be with someone and still be lonely. It's all about how you feel about yourself and how you libe your life. We are all the same. We enter this world alone and we will leave alone.
