I see couples always holding hand's and kissing....it drive's me up the wall. I say that why can't I have something like that again but, then I say to myself that your not alway's going to get what you want. I've been eighteen for sometime now and it suck's...I hate it when, people alway's tell me "Oh- don't worry there's many fish in the sea you'll find that special someone(Mr.Right). I give up on trying and then, my friend's tell me that could be the answer because, he'll come to me or something like that....

these types of encounters happen when you least expect it, sometimes you have to lower your standards when it comes to your loved one. 18 isn't to old an age, especially for dating, you shouldn't be worried about mr.right at this age, focus on other things, and one day he will come.

I don't mean to be patronising, but 18 is young. I am 28 and I feel like I should only be 19-20, the years go by so fast.
I wasted so much of my youth on useless boyfriends and only meet my true love two years ago when I was 26.
If I could turn back the clock with that in mind, I would have spent my youth (16-26) concentrating on school so that I could have a good job by now. And just having fun with friends and family.
So my advise to you would be to just enjoy yourself. Concentrate on your interests and think about a career.
When you do meet the right person you will have good job prospects and a well spent youth.

you need to get into thing, learn new stuff (that u may never use in your life even), BUT the point is that when your brain is busy you don't think of stuff like that. I know it sucks to feel lonely/single. but....do u really need a guy to be happy???, i don't think so. if u think that "mr right" will make your life happy and complete, your relationships won't succeed and you'll always end up with a broken heart, because u need to be happy and complete BEFORE hand so you can give that to him. after all love is not about what u can get, but about what can u give

oh i know exactly how you feel, well i have a boyfriend, but when i was away for 2 months it seemed like everyone had their boyfriend with them, kissing, holding hands, walking on the beach, i felt so left out. but for you, since you dont have a boyfriend, you really do have to wait for that perfect guy to come along. you may be frustrated at first, but when you do meat a guy you really like, try not to pick him apart, in the end you will meet someone you will wish to be with for the rest of your life. for now, just try to spend as much time as possible with your friends & have fun being single!! its not ALWAYS bad being single. find a few friends who arent in a relationship and go to a party & flirt, have fun and meat new people, i bet you if you stop looking so hard that perfect guy will be led to you by fate. keep your head high...
GOOD LUCK :]

You're friends are right. Even if you do find a man while looking you rarely keep him. I looked for the right man for me for a few years and gave up. Started worrying about myself and advancing my own life. A week after making this descision I was in love and I've been with the guy for about 5 years now. It's sort of like this: If you go shopping for shirts and you find a shirt you like, it's good- but if you're not even looking for a shirt and u find a shirt you like, it's great!

you know it's not a bad thing to think about being with someone. The more you think about it though the more you should be proactive about it. As long as your not depressed about think about someone then you're normal. Now my personal opinion, your 18 give yourself sometime to be 18. If you go out and happen to come across a guy that intrigues you then give him a chance. Love is blind, only until you do something about can you see it.

find lots to do.. if you are already doing lots of sports or other activities and are still yearning to be with someone, then dont fret... its normal.. to some extent... you need to be happy with yourself first... sounds like you're not,other wise youd be happy being on your own.
the advice you get is right.. there are lots of lil fishie wishies in the sea...
but maybe you dont come across as openly single to the males you meet... guys usually wait for a cue that lets them know you're single.. unless they ask someone...
Im sure you're a great person, but do some self improvement and you'll see things change...

Get busy. Take classes, volunteer, take up a hobby. Most of all realize that you can enjoy life with or without someone by your side. Maybe you will meet someone, maybe not. But you'll be too busy to dwell on this and you will be happy to boot. Trust me.

Stop dreaming and get out there! Go somewhere there will be other people your age and talk to them. Who knows you might even make a new friend while your at it. The perfect man isn't going to come up to your house will a bundle of flowers and tell you he loves ya! You have meet him first.
