This isnt really a question. A girl i work with asked me "Why dont you have a boyfriend, I feel bad for you because you dont have anyone" I responded, "I feel bad for you because you seem like the type of person who needs to have someone to be secure." I'm not the type of person who always needs to have a boyfriend to be happy. I am happy alone and with myself and when i find a guy who meets my standards, I'll be happy with him. I'm tired of hearing the annoying question, "why dont you have a boyfriend" Becuase I havent found the guy I want yet.

You GO girl!!! That's the attitude everyone should have!
I was the exact same when I was single.
It really is pathetic how people feel that they NEED to have a boyfriend or girlfriend to make them happy. They should just sit back and relax and let GOD bring them the one in His time.
You'll never find love if you keep looking for it.
And honestly... I think that having someone and NOT having someone feels the same way. There are the same ups and downs. Oh well... that's life.

I too don't understand this pressure in society to always be with "somebody". Women are taught that they have to "capture" a suitor at some point; men are taught that they have to be sleeping with somebody on any given week. I think both are silly ways to define oneself. Though what's even more sickening are the people who think "you must not be happy" if you're not dating at the moment. Talk about projecting their own pathetic feelings!
Unfortunately, I've noticed that the flip side of this is that some people have unrealistic standards. They'll reject one person after another in hopes of finding a "10" that either doesn't exist, or who can afford to be picky enough to reject THEM. Somewhere, there's a balance factor.

I feel you. I was alone for about three years until I met my fiancee. I told them I was going for quality not quantity and I didn't have to date every jerk that asked me out so I didn't sit home alone. I enjoy sitting home alone. I am comfortable with myself.
What is really sad to me is the little young ones in here that ask, "Help, I NEED a boyfriend, pleeeezzzzzz"!!!!!!

True but I know plenty of people in there 30ties who wish they had someone to share the experience of life with. People shouldnt tell you you have to be with someone to be happy, becuase you dont, but it is nice having someone to share life with.

i am single by choice, and you don't need a man to boss you and find time to please him. ask her to get a life, and tell her that you need a Mr. right, not Mr. whoever with dick. women without a life like to gossip someone's life and ask her to back off.
