I know this post is going to sound pretty pathetic and they are loads of posts like this on TSR but I wanted to get this out of my system.
Ok so basically I'm 19, female, just finished first year at uni and I've never had a boyfriend. Ever. Not one. Not even been on a date. I get on with blokes fine, one of my best friends is a guy but no one ever seems to fancy me. If they do then I have the people-reading skills of a gnat. I'm not a weirdo, I'm not ugly as hell, I'm a bit overweight but other than that I think I'm a nice, normal, down-to-earth person with a bubbly personality who's just looking for that special someone. So why can't I find them? I've snogged blokes before drunkenly, and had a sort of one-night-stand type thing in the first week of uni but we didnt go all the way. I don't act desperate, even though I am. I'm not bothered about being a virgin because i know loads of people my age are virgins, and im not looking for someone so I can lose my virginity. The thing is, lots of people my age are virgins out of choice - they have had boyfriends/girlfriends but didnt feel ready to have sex. I've never even been given the chance! As result of this, I look at every guy i meet as a potential boyfriend and I know i really shouldn't be doing this because it makes me act differently around them which I know won't get me anywhere.
My friends at uni have had or are in long term relationships so when they talk about their other halves i feel left out and can never join in the conversation because I have never had that experience.
It's really getting me down and i know eventually I will find someone but I can't help thinking that I'm going to wind up a lonely old spinster with 17 cats. I don't even like cats.
