Why are you single?
himez:
Well for me? I don’t really know. Looking around my group of friends and it’s so cute seeing everyone with their significant other, while I sit awkwardly green with envy at the “snogging” and the cuddling and the low murmuring as each couple interact with one another.
Now although there ARE other bachelor(ettes) in the room, I can’t help but feel more alone than ever. I can’t help but ask myself a dozen questions like, am I doing something wrong, or am I looking in the wrong places? Are my standards too high? But even settling low isn’t cutting it…
Now I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I seem to have the general package that people look for … or at least I think so, right? I’m friendly, the personality’s there. I’ve got a little bit of talent and the right amount of looks. Plus, I’m ambitious and I know what I want in life and I’m a bright and ambitious student.
So what is it that makes people look past me? I just don’t get it… I’m not asking to be in a relationship, but at least someone to hang out with or whatever. I mean, some adults and parents encourage dating young and “play the field” to really get to know your type, but how are we really supposed to do this if there’s nobody else in the field but you?
couldn’t agree more. this applies to me as well. i ask myself this question everyday. i never have an answer.
