    I am a 21 year old female and have been pretty much in a relationship since i was 16. I was with my first boyfriend for 4 and a half years and met my second straight after. We moved in together and split up in August this year and I have been single since. I am struggling to find someone to be with. I am from Limerick originally but moved to Dublin for work and dont socialise with many up here and go home every weekend. The majority of my mates are all lads and we all know each other from school so its hard to meet lads. Any suggestions on how to meet fellas on my own accord?

    Hi Queen Bee,

    Rather than putting your energy into finding a new relationship why don't you take some time out and stay single for a while. I know so many girls who hop from relationship to relationship and never take time out for themselves and I have often wondered if it was the actual guy they were in to or was it the 'having someone'.

    Maybe you should take up some hobbies and try and make new friends in Dublin. If you put your time and focus into doing things you enjoy, you might just meet someone nice along the way too but seriously take a break for now. You were a kid when you started your first relationship and have been in one ever since, get to know yourself.

    Why do you want to jump into another relationship? You're only 21, you should be using this opportunity to enjoy the single life, work on building your frienships, your social life and your self-esteem. You've all the time in the world to get involved in yet another relationship, you should think about dedicating this time to yourself and having some fun!

    I agree with the others. Sometimes people who get into relationships drop their old friends and realise when they split up that they've not got them any more. I'm not saying you did that but perhaps your being in relationships ever since you went to Dublin has caused you to neglect that important part of your life.
