Anyone else fed up with being single right now?

OP...in my opinion, meeting someone happens out of the blue and when you least expect it.
I speak from experience of being an early 20's guy who's been single for three years...did plenty of socialising, mixed with loads of people my age, met loads of girls and nothing happened.
Spent a few weeks on dating sites, no luck there either. Was really, really not enjoying being single...lonely old time it was. I got to the stage where I began seriously doubting myself and wondering what the fcuk was wrong with me..began to feel like I might never find someone compatible..but it was just circumstance I guess. Not the right situation, not in the right place at the right time to meet the right person...
But, out of the blue a couple of months ago..I hooked up with a girl in college, and we really, really got along together. Two peas from the same pod. Full blown relationship now.
Mad thing was, I honestly did not see it coming. Just be patient, and when it seems like you're running out of patience, be patient some more. It will happen!
And when it does happen, enjoy it
Only a few weeks? You have to give it more time than that. It took me months before I got a date.0 -

Sam you're early twenties...
try being early thirties and single
I'm sure I can look forward to spending at least part of my thirties being single!
The point I'd like to make is that just because us youngsters tend to be a bit more casual and 'free' in life (i.e, not tied down by jobs/careers/children or whatever the circumstances might be), does not mean it's easy-peasy to find the right partner, and/or develop/maintain a decent relationship.
as for casual flings...pff, I had one ONS during my three year stint of single-ness and hated it. Not my cup of tea at all.Daveysil15 wrote: »Only a few weeks? You have to give it more time than that. It took me months before I got a date.
I was in the middle of the whole online thing when I met the girl in college..hence, I deleted my profile on OKC Would probably still be at it otherwise..
For anyone trying the online dating route, or considering trying it...there's a private forum here on boards, PM one of the mods and ask for permission to join. So many decent, sincere people in the same boat that are happy to help, give advice and hear your rants about being single!0 -

I have tried dating sites and I'm not saying all guys are the same, but the guys I met were just looking for the one thing.
All the guys you met were looking for the one thing :rolleyes: . Well it's certainly top of the list :pac:. Have you considered that this fact is blurring any other potential there might be or did they simply sit down put it straight to you in plain English cuz I cant imagine even the most uncultured bloke doing that on a date.
Easy ride. What's an easy ride? You are both having good sex, why do you make it out as though he's got the upper hand on this or that he somehow owes you something because you are having sex?
My advice - If you find him sexually attractive and he only wants sex then have sex and see how it turns out. If you both think each other are sound then great! You had sex! And he's sound!
Come on for crying out loud!!!

Sex to me is personal and something I engage in when I have feelings for someone beyond a physical basis. I can't have sex with someone if I don't feel totally comfortable and confident in the relationship. That's just me.0 -
