I am 26 and men do not even seem interested in me. Everyone that knows me talks about how pretty and great I am and they cannot believe I am not with someone. I am sweet, caring and have a great sense of humor. I know I do not have to have someone to be happy. It would just be nice to have someone sometimes. I belong to a few clubs and am concentrating on a career. I have guys in my life that are friends but it never goes past that. Oddly those same guys always talk about how great I am. Could there be something wrong that I am missing?

I know how you feel...I have felt that way before! I know it sounds silly and I didn't believe it when people told me...but if you stop looking you will find him...it's true! I had stopped looking and stopped worry about finding someone to make me happy and then out of nowhere I met this guy and he has made me happier than anyone I have ever been with...I love him so much!
Don't worry it will happen for you too!! Just give it time...and enjoy life in the meantime!

Being a woman myself, I think your really smart focusing on a career. That is what matters at this time. Knowing you don't have to have a guy in your life to succeed is a good thing. This shows your independent and have your senses in order. Yes, one day you will meet that special guy whom you can share your life with when your willing and ready. Keep doing what you feel is right and enjoy life. Guys seeing what your about probably feel a little intimidated by you because you don't need them to pro spare. Keep doing what you like to be happy and meet all kinds of great people along the way. There is nothing wrong with what your living! Stay wise and follow your in stinks. If more women were like you there would be so many more happy females in this life. Cocoa

You are pretty cute - I wonder if you're also very confident. Sometimes that can be both a turn on and a turn off to guys.
But you can't be sure of what you're doing wrong unless you have a girlfriend or someone you trust observe you and then give you feedback. It can't be someone who hasn't had any sucess with hooking up - it has to be someone who is extremely successful. And speaking of that - find someone who is successful and then copy what they do when they meet people - until you can develop your own style. It is important to be yourself, but you might be self disclosing too much at first, or giving off some signals that you're not aware of with your body language.
There is a someone out there for everyone - and it just takes a little doing to find them. I'm sure that once you figure stuff out everything will work out for you. Good luck!!

You're a very attractive young woman, you might just be unlucky, which is often the case with a lot of young people today.
Obviously you are thinking long-term relationship; this intimidates a lot of men when it comes to dating. If I were you I would try to be a lot less serious when it comes to the dating scene, not every guy should be "evaluated" if he would be a good husband or father. Just focus on the date itself, take it one step at a time and you will eventually find that person you will spend the rest of your life with.

life is all about destiny. if u live in a small town then maybe it's time to get out....unless u r expecting a huge ups package for a mail order groom. large cities r okay but there's also a lot of whackos roaming around. I'm sure it's the same online ;-)
besides, everyone already knows happiness is found at the end of an ice cream bar (did I say just one?)

Aww, you're pretty! Most guys are jerks anyway and any guy who passes up the opportunity to get to know you and to be with you is a loser. Maybe you need to change things up and start visiting different places so you can get out of the same crowd that you're usually around.

Well sometimes you have to give love to get love. Maybe you should show a little more interest in your guy friends who tell you how great you are. If you've dated several jerks then you can probably identify one when you meet one by now.

youre attractive, but you seem like youre trying too hard. sounds like the men you meet are drinking buddies. seems like you are joining clubs to meet men upon initial thought, rather than stuff that really interests you. you indicated that dont need anyone to be happy and belive me that is healthy. youre mature so it may take you awhile. continue focusing on yourself and your needs, something will bite!

Maybe the guy friends like you and are shy. Maybe you're looking for a guy in the wrong places, start looking around you in maybe you're career feild.

Get out and start mingling with a different group. I think you need a change of people and attitude!
