How to stay strong in the face of mistakes?

I can already tell you that I know I will overcome this and move on

But... how can you stay hopeful and have faith when things go wrong in your life? And sometimes it seems like you're the one who puts yourself in these situations (shit!)

There are times when I feel kind of abandoned when I see that things are going wrong... I've had moments when I felt a strong energy coming from the gods, but when faced with some mistakes and setbacks in life, there are those moments that make you question whether you're really alone...

If I'm writing this forum right now, it's because I believe in Satan and the gods, and I've read a lot of sermons about how the gods relate to us and even that life is really going to be this twisted. But, I don't know, when faced with a difficult moment, especially when you don't have your astral means open, you feel a bit without guidance, questioning things...

But I would like to talk about what happened, maybe I'm just writing this to vent and really listen to some friendly advice...
Anyway, there was something I really wanted in my life, I even asked the gods for help, I performed magic to achieve it, I actually overcame many obstacles to be able to act and I recognize my effort and learning during the process. However, today I understand that what I wanted will not happen and I don't know if it is possible to reverse it. I know it is not something irreplaceable or unique, but I specifically wanted that, I know that at the same time it was a mistake on my part for having high expectations. But knowing that I didn't succeed and starting to see thousands of scenarios that you could have done "right", makes me question the whole process.

This is not the first time this has happened, but it is the first time I have tried to use my best as a Satanist. But I wanted to know how to overcome this, how to know that I'm really not alone, that I'm not doing everything wrong, that, in the end, maybe things will get better...
 
I'm coming back here because I was embarrassed about being judged, and I wrote a very "mysterious" text above, but that's how I felt at the time.

I've been writing about love lately. I think I've read every post on the forum related to the subject, including how this feeling of love was hurting me.

The fact is that I became obsessed with a specific woman and I want her no matter what. The funny thing is that I'm not necessarily looking for a new relationship or anything like that, but this woman captivated me and made me obsessed with her in a way that I really can't explain.

The fact is that I really want her, at least to kiss her, so I asked the gods for help, I performed love spells and overcame obstacles like fear, shyness, lack of courage, lack of confidence... anyway...

Overcoming these obstacles, I had the courage to ask her out and she refused. This refusal didn't surprise me... but it really hurt, not because of the "no", but because of all the effort and desire that went into it, because if it was something I did wrong, why didn't I receive at least a sign not to do it... we end up feeling lost when faced with a failure.

Man, at the same time I want to accept this as the end of a cycle, but I don't want to forget her, I don't want to give up even in the face of this, I want to continue my magic. WHAT THE FUCK!! Why do I still want to insist? Sometimes I just want a little voice in my head to just say "you can stop" or "you can keep going"

But if I keep going and it goes wrong again, all the questions, feelings of weakness, of abandonment will come back... so, honestly, I have no idea what to do, really, I just wanted some friendly advice.
 
There is a saying that says you learn through your mistakes or failing that a true saying
