I haven't dated anyone since November and I'm not looking. Everyone makes it seem like I am wasting away my life because I don't have a man. People in school are trying to find me someone. Like do I look that hopeless? I don't really even have time for one, he would probably break up with me because all I do is work. I just got a speeding ticket yesterday so now I have to work more to pay that off.. What's the big deal ?

Girl, I feel you. I don't have a man either but it's by choice. I work and go to school about 60 hours a week ao I don't have time for anything but late night cuddling and I don't expect anyone to have to put up with that. As long as you're happy, that's what matters. If you're not then you should welcome there advice and help. But being single is fun. You get to talk to a bunch of sexy hotties all the time and you can go out whenever you want. Live it up! At my age most men are dogs anyways. Just drama and dishonesty if you ask me...

It isn't a big deal. You DO NOT need a man to be a complete person. In fact, the happiest couple are those where both people are emotionally ready, know what they truly want out of life, and find another person who feels the same way! There's nothing wrong with having a date here and there, but it is not necessary to have a BF every second! I spent lots of time on my own, and had a blast! While friends were having fights with their BF or having to ask them if they minded going places, I went all over the place, saw lots of things, had tons of fun, and don't regret a single second! I dated lots of guys, but only casually, and now that I'm in my 30's, I finally feel ready to committ myself to the most wonderful man on the earth! I can say that without feeling like I've had to make a single sacrifice, and knowing I have enjoyed my life very much!

People just being concerned and you can understand that. I probably would of done something like that to a friend of mine too if i knew she havent dates anyone for quiet some time. I mean it is really not too healthy to just work. You sound like a young woman that need to relax once a while, brush stuff off your shoulders and go to the club, lounge or bar once in a while. Take a weekend off and go hang out with some of your "tryin to hook you up" friends and just relax and have fun. You dont have to be in relationship that can take away a lot of time off your work and bill payments, but you can date once in a while. Just for fun; nothing crazy or unsafe. Just for yourself and possible future depression that you may have after some time.

MISS INDEPENDENT! I like that! gurL, people will always try to change you in life, or try to get you to do the opposite of what your currently doing. dont bother with them, concentrate on YOU and YOUR LIFE! I admire the fact that your a hardworking girl, obviously respondisble, and no, you most certainly do NOT need a man to keep your life stable and happy. Now, im not saying relationships are bad, but dont let your friends toss you into one just for the heck of it.... if you ever found a guy that interested you, then give him a try, but other than that, dont let anyone change your views, thoughts, or beliefs.... you are your own person and being an independent female is one of the best things you could do for yourself. your young, you have your life ahead of you, with tons of guys and plenty of fish in the sea... one day you wont be sooo busy and you will have a change of heart... but in the mean time, do what ya gotta do!

You don't need a man in your life to make your life special. Most of the times, men just slow you down! Become what you want to become in life and work as much as you want before a guy comes into your life. Make sure he is the right one too.
Men aren't needed the are just like accessories!!

You don't need a man to make you happy. It's perfectly normal. Your classmates need to realize that you are content with your current relationship status and back off. And you mentioned worked a lot. They need to take that into consideration. Not only are you content with not having a boyfriend, you apparently don't have time for one.
In a few years, things could change, but for now, just tell your fellow classmates to stop trying to set you up with people

A confident woman is whole and complete in herself. And you are wise to know that it does not take a man to make you complete. It's ok to work, but have a balance in your life of work and play and only YOU decide when, where, how, and why, you ALLOW someone into your world. Just keep believing in you and do the things YOU want to do and do not be influenced by others..you are coming along nicely. :)

It's not a big deal you need to tell the people who are bothering you to stop cause its not what you want. Your not wasting away your life because you don't have a man thats just them being rude.

It's nice to know that your friends care about you. There is nothing wrong with not having anyone in your life right now, especially if you know you do not have the time to put into a relationship right now. When you are not looking is usually when you meet that special someone.

People get so caught up with society telling you things you should have. You know yourself more than anyone. You seem very focused. You see the big picture. The rest will fall in place. I met my wife when she was just getting done with school. She told me if it would have been a month earlier, she would have smiled and walked right past me:)
