I've heard before that if you look for love you're probably not going to find it. I've been single for almost a year now and I really want to have a boyfriend again. There is a guy that I like and want to date, but it doesn't seem to be working out and it's the second time since my last relationship that this happened with someone I like. Guys don't seem to want to date me. I'm smart, pretty and I'm a nice person so I don't don't know what's wrong. What I wonder is whether it's wrong for me to really want a boyfriend. A lot of people tell me to enjoy being single, but I'm not really enjoying it. I feel lonely because pretty much all of my friends have a bf or gf and spend a lot of time with them. And I'm left alone. I just really want someone to be with.

ok, there's nothing wrong with wanting a boyfriend. it's normal, and downright healthy. but, i honestly believe that you have to wait for love. and that also means not expecting it at every turn. there's a quote i read in a book once that goes something like this...how can love just happen if you're always expecting it? (ok, not the exact words, but close enough) i took it to heart. i used to be so desperate for love i joined those dating sites and tried to meet people in chat rooms.....it doesn't usually work out....
but, i decided i'd had enough, and i took time to focus on me.....i went back to college, figured out what i wanted, and the very nexy guy is now my husband and we have a beautiful son together. so my advice is this. be patient. learn to truly love yourself, and then someone else will fall in love with you too.

People are not made to be alone, so it's perfectly normal for a woman to want a man in her life that will make her feel loved. To deny our own impulses is to deny the very thing that makes us human. There are lots of men out there in the same situation that are looking for a woman to shower with affection, so go to where the men are. With so many people in the world, you stand a good chance of meeting a wonderful person if you keep trying. Follow your heart without regrets!

I kinda know how u feel. I've been single for about 2 months, so its kinda. Niways, I don't think its wrong to want a bf. You're lonely. Ppl are made to be social. Having someone who cares about you is something that you should want all the time.

Have you told this guy that you like him? I don't think there is anything wrong with trying to find a boyfriend. I don't believe in the whole "if you look for love you're probably not going to find it" thing. I think it is all a myth.

i don't think that its wrong for you to want to be with someone! you just need to make sure its not for the wrong reasons. meet new people that don't have a bf or gf. go out have fun. your young and obviously a very nice person! if you want to go for the person your interested in, i say go for it. if it does not work out, learn from it. the best of luck!

I have the exact same feelings as you do. Sur eyou may not find love if you LOOK but you'll definitely find some interesting people who can be your friends, boyfriends, good hookups or just flings. and hey maybe those people are wrong, maybe you can look for true love. For yours and my sake i hope so!!
