does any1 else feel lonely right now?

Im not trying to be a drama queen or anything cos its not that big a deal, but I havent had a proper boyfriend for ages now, and I really miss being close to someone.
What makes it worse is that everywhere I turn I see couples having a really good time.. and plus at least half of my mates have blokes so in the holidays ive not had many people to meet up with!
The only thing that keeps me going is the thought that one day i might meet someone special (better be soon tho!)
And plus Im feeling quite sexually frustrated right now as well!! Im not the sort of girl who would just shag anyone to get some (even though there is a guy I know quite well that I prob could have sex with if I wanted to) but its getting unbearable!

Any tips on how to overcome my lonely phase :frown: I need something to occupy my days, and also to make me feel a lil bit more loved :biggrin:

i know exactly how you feel. Im the same i want to be intermate with someone, but not just anyone. Its been a while since i was in a relationship with anyone, my last break up took me months to deal with and then uni filled the gap.

Since theres no uni or anyone to go out with im resorted to keeping myself occupied online. I was ment to go out this afternoon, but it never came off.

i can't give you tips, but i can empathise. other than my cousins (who i'm pretty close to) i haven't really seen many of my friends this holiday, and now all of my good friends (cousins included) have gone abroad! actually, that's not true. i rang two of them yesterday to see what they're up to and they'd gone camping in wales. me, ostracised leper? never!

i wouldn't worry about the gentleman situation (or lack thereof), i'm sure someone will turn up. actually, i'm not completely sure, because i am practically a professional single person, even though i certainly wouldn't object to company :s:. but i wish you the best of luck. and if you can't find anyone, then enjoy having some time to yourself... read a book! sleep a lot!

yeah cos when I had a boyfriend i never had to worry about filling my days cos I spent them all with him.
Now I have hardly anything to do, and plus I havent found a job yet so im getting so bored with nothing worthwhile to do!

i spent most of my summer with my ex last year, we'd go for walks on the chase and mess around at his house. Nothing like that this year, the weather isnt even remotely as good as last year either.

yeah, I think its worse cos last summer I practically never left my ex boyfriends side! Now I have no-one to rent out DVDs with, go for a meal etc.. oh im so desperate its unreal!
All i can say is my next boyfriend better watch out cos I'll be trying to make up for lost time lol :p:

I'm the same in this respect! I've been single for a while now but strangely enough I don't feel lonely at all. I guess I'm just quite happy on my own - I can always find stuff for myself to do, be it reading, painting, watching videos, etc. Try to keep yourself *really* busy, so busy that you have no time to think about anything else. Is there anything you really enjoy doing?

Well yeah but you kind of need a boyfriend to do it :wink: only joking, I enjoy writing and drawing and stuff.
i guess its just the fact that I miss having someone to be with me while i do things really.
Theres nothing better than having someone to share everything with :p:

dont worry... i feel exactly the same way.. my best mate got a bf and i hardly see her! There is someone spesh in my life tho but its kinda complicated and i get really down and lonely.. My advice would be to try find one friend that has some time and go to the cinema, bowling, clubbing and just have a good time! Things will look up soon. It's probs best to hang with someone who u can laugh about the couples with.. Failing that - going to clubs etc, you mite b able to meet someone?
Good luck and keep smiling.. :biggrin:
(dont do what i do and listen to sad songs or watch chick flicks!)

Reading and writing sound good :smile: Maybe do some sports as well? Uses up loads of your energy :smile: Can't say I can relate to your feelings, as I quite like doing stuff on my own, but I guess everybody's different.

Well i do have my own sex toy that has gradually been used more often as the months drag on :wink: but I cant really take one with me to have a meal with, and I doubt it would appreciate a good DVD either :biggrin:

that is a good idea on the surface, I go clubbing all the time and manage to meet the odd bloke! But the problem is I dont want to meet a boyfriend right now cos Im going to university in a couple of months anyway so there'd be no point in starting up a relationship.
Thanks for the advice, ill definitely try and keep smiling and stay positive! After all, i cant be so unlucky that I'll never find a bloke again can i?!
