not meant to be married?
Ugly even though YOU think you're beautiful?
Your soulmate doesn't share the same generation with you so you have to move one up even though that'll gross you out?

I HAVE SELF CONFIDENCE!
I am sweet, kind, beautiful and outgoing and trustworthy

No, no, and no! :)
(1) People are getting married later and later in life nowadays...22 is still VERY young! You have plenty of time to get married, so don't let anyone tell you to rush!
(2) If YOU think you're beautiful, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks...I give huge props to you for believing that you're beautiful! If you take pride in your appearance and feel good about how you look, that's a wonderful thing...that self-confidence is sure to attract people as you move through life!
(3) Don't assume that your soulmate isn't "in your generation": there may very well be a 22-year-old guy out there that's perfect for you...you just haven't met him yet!
Finally, hon: don't ever lower your standards or date someone you're "grossed out" by just because you think that's better than being alone. There are far worse things in life than being single, and it's WAY better to be single than to be in a bad relationship!
I truly believe that you'll find the right person for you at the right time :)...but if not, know that you're an awesome person, whether you have a significant other or not!

Well, if you think you're beutiful, then that is probably not the problem. Maybe it's your attitude. Really, if you are a nice looking girl and you have never been asked out by 22, it may be your attitude.
Maybe instead of moving up a generation which grosses you out, why don't you just try lowering your standards where looks are concerned. I know that most of the strongest attractions I have ever had are to guys that I was friends with and never dated.
In other words, you can take an average looks guy, get to know him, and his looks seem to get a million times better. Those are the strongest attractions I have ever had.
That can work in reverse too. You can take a really good looking person (maybe you?) and get to know them and then they don't seem so hot anymore. The more you dislike someone, the uglier their looks get.
I'm not saying that you are a b***h, I don't even know you. But maybe you should just evaluate your attitude and see if you could be sending off that signal. Good Luck!

I didnt get into any relationship with a male until i was 22. I was so caught up with my study and my work i just didnt pay any attention to whether i was liked or not. I did used to think to myself though that i would never marry - i just always seemed more career oriented.
I met my partner in July of 2001 when i was 22 and we were friends for a couple of months before i started dating for the first time. We have now been together for just over 5 years and expecting our first child in 1 week. Anything is possible at any age.

No, it doesn't mean that. Maybe you haven't been available to many single men. If you are shy and do not have a lot of acquaintances, it is hard for men to get to know you.
Try to be more social. Perhaps you can try match.com. Join a group that is male and female, such as volunteering in a political party or join a youthful church if these things interest you.
Maybe you just haven't put yourself out there. Also, remember to smile and make eye contact. Don't do something that will gross you out. You will be unhappy.

No, it doesn't mean anything like that. It means that you probably never leave your house. If you want to meet guys, you need to go talk to them. That's the only way you'll meet anyone. And 22 isn't that old either. I'm 21 and a guy, and I'm in almost the same situation because of my living arrangements and school. But I'm still a dating expert! Now go . . . put down the mouse and get out of the house! Try not to go to bars or clubs though . . . you won't meet too many of the right kinds of guys there. Good luck!

By 22? I wouldn't worry about it. Worry when you're 35.
There may have been guys who were interested, but too shy to do anything about it.
Besides, there are about 3 billion men on the planet...only 150 million in the USA...only about 20 million of an acceptable age...how many of those have you personally met?
Keep looking. :) I'm sure he's out there!

1. No, it has nothing to do with whether or not you will ever marry
2. Even unattractive people get in relationships so looks aren't it
3. A soulmate is someone with whom you feel a deep connection, they may or may not be a romantic interest, and may even be the same sex...you can have a fantastically wonderful romantic relationship with someone who is not a "soulmate"...in fact, many people go through their life w/o meeting any soulmates...
Self confidence is very attractive...work on that...it'll benefit you more than anything else you could do for yourself..

Maybe you are too shy or just not paying enough attention to notice the sparks of interest. Being 22 and unattached is a good thing, you still have time to continue developing your own character while your waiting for your soul mate.
Peace :)

Its none of my business but i think youre a little young to be using guy for "physical needs". Youre only 16! When youre a little older its ok for an age difference to be there but youre not even legal yet! Family values are very important and i think you should respect his wishes. Infatuation can be very powerful, especially at a young age. Also, having meaningless sex tears you down over time. It wears away at your soul. Be careful!!!

1) It could be the way you look. Do you look after yourself and dress up to make yourself attractive?
2) It could be your personality and the way you talk...or don't talk if you are shy.
The biggest hurdle in relationship is not looks...but personality.
Nobody will ask you out if you call yourself "The queen of the dumb questions". In general... people look to associate themself with smart people.
