Tough Time To Be Single

PTH2009

Im a 19 year old male and i does anyone else agree that this is a tough time to be single with the Debs and Winter coming up but on the other hand there are people starving in the world so its only a minor problem

No it is not a tough time. If you start thinking along those lines you will end up with a bit of a complex over it. It is awkward age in many ways but don't make a big deal of it. Loads of people go to debs with people they don't really know very well.

Normally there are friends of friends to ask to debs so you should maybe start checking it out with some friends. Make sure you trust them as boys/men are by nature quite cruel about social issues. If you are sensitive it might hurt a bit. College a or work are a head of you and that tends to mean more opportunities to develop into a different person to that of the one you had in school.

Plenty of money still in your pocket while others burn it up into thin air.

Tough time to be single :eek:
Come on man - there will be no better time to be single.
Just ask any girl to the debs, it's all about having fun with your mates.

And much better to not have the baggage of a girlfriend when you head to college and will have the chance to play the field.

No Better Time.

You can go where you want, flirt with whoever you like. You arent tied down to a commitment to regular dates. Face it, relationships can be expensive. Who doesnt want to take their OH out to dinner? Its just not cheap though. not really. Especially with the state of things.

nah man my debs are long gone. Finshed school in 2007, graduated with a fetac level 5 sound engineering cert in 2008. Most of my mates are going to other peoples debs so it just a bit annoying being single at 19, time is running out imo

Time is running out at 19? Would you ever cop on to yourself, you have your whole life ahead of you and it's there to be enjoyed, not to be spent moping around feeling sorry for yourself and looking for sympathy here. Why do you even care about debs when you're out of school 2 years at this stage? You're an adult now, start acting like one and enjoy what the world has to offer. And that includes plenty of single women. Part of the fun is finding the right one.

Time is running out?!

I met my first boyfriend when I was fourteen and was with him until I was sixteen and then I was with with my second boyfriend from the time I was seventeen until last year. I am twenty now and I have to say, being single is great!

You are young and this is the time to enjoy life, without having to commit yourself to another person and worry about their wants and needs along with your own. I spent the majority of my teenage years in a relationship and while I don't regret a second of, they were amazing guys, I know that the freedom you have when you are single is hard to beat.

Time is most definitely not running out. There are a lot of twenty something year olds around who are single and loving every minute of it so I think perhaps you should take a leaf out of their books and take advantage of this time while you have it!

Have fun now.

Screw up your life with a proper relationship later.


Time running out at 19?Damn kids......

Believe me when you do get a girlfriend you will definitely appreciate the time you spent being single, go enjoy yourself , it might not be that way forever.

Why is it hard to be single with Winter coming up?

You are aware you can buy blankets to keep you warm?

Don't be fecking worried about it!
I'm 27 and single and loving it! You can do what you want. Go where you want! I've been single for 5 months and I'm sorry I didn't listen to my gut feeling and decide to be single sooner

Ask a friend along to the debs with you. And sure, who says you need to bring a partner anyway! Go on your own! More to be said for someone who can show up to somthing like that on their own. Less expense on the night and no looking after someone else!!!!

This is the time to be single my friend. Money is tight for everyone and so you could do without having to look after someone else!
