Fed up with being single.

I just feel like I need a chat over this.

I'm pretty fed up now with being single. I've not been with a girl for over two and a half years now.

The trouble is I just don't seem to be able to meet anyone. I go out with friends and there only seems to be random girls out there or the people I know better all seem to be in happy, fairly long term relationships.

I'd just like to find someone somewhere, but I've no idea what to do or anything. It just gets me down a bit right now. I feel I don't really have anyone to talk to about this yet either as I started a new post-grad course a few months back and while I've made some really good mates, I don't feel I'm able to talk to them about how I feel about this just yet :frown:

Meh, the situation could be worse: you could have never had a girlfriend, you could have no friends at all.

That is not a great help is it?

Bottom bit still applies!

Anyway yeah I can see your point of view. I'm in the same situation but I love being single.

Mate I feel your pain. I'm sick of it too. i;m sick of everyone being happy and altho they don't intend it, it makes me feel bloody awful, useless and worthless. Ho hum.

That is not a great help, though. If the OP is feeling down, then saying things could be worse might not always help.
For me personally I have been single for a fair while too. I'm just seeming how things go on for now. I'm sure something might happen one day. Probably the best thing I could say on this is to try and stay positive about to try and stay positive about things, appear happy and friendly and then you never know who you might meet one day. But if you let things get you down and go around looking a bit miserable then even if you do meet a potential partner then you'd probably not be in a state to do anything about it.

Then again you can feel that sometimes you never will find anyone....

Yup, you're really not the only one in this boat- I'm 18 and I haven't had a boyfriend for a whole year. It's crap! Got a very active social life, lots of mates, nice family, uni studying and all going on, so there's only one thing missing really now. I'm sure all us single people won't stay that way forever anyway (at least I bloody well hope not!)

I completley understand. Ive been with guys but never labeled it a relationship. Its ok i guess because im still very young but still...Its been so long since I even had a flirt that sometimes i feel like ill never meet anyone that I will like and that will like me back. Can the world be so small?

I also feel like i end up making out with completle assholes only because I want to feel...something...a guy i really really liked happened to me once...maybe twice in my life.

sometimes back in ur room/kitchen is the best place to enjoy the a fine tipple here i've found. i got a blender the other day so intend to make some interesting concoctions tonight.

but anyway; back on topic, i believe that if you truly are a decent guy/girl, your luck will come eventually. if you're a pot of toss, or any sort of equivalent character, then, i suppose, ironically, you might be 'lucky' in a sense of false consciousness and one day suffer a nasty fall to reality. or something.

I've been single for ages too, and it sucks because now even like the people who are so uninterested in boys are getting boyfriends and claiming they are in "love" and it just sucks.

Also it sucks because no boy likes me other than 1 who is in a relationship for over a year.

I may be younger than you but I can empathise here...I feel many of the same things. Chin up, try a different approach, greet people with a smile - it can make the difference.

Fed up with being single.
