All of my friends are coupled up. How do you not let it get you down when you're in that situation. I'm also the only one in my group of friends who's never done anything with a girl which makes it worse.

Don't worry about what your friends have and don't have.

In fact, you don't have to deal with them at all. Go find some new friends.

Everyone finds a mate when their time comes. How about expanding your options, and just try and "make friends" with some cure single available girls?

If your friends are all couples; then it's time to find other "single" people to hangout with.

Why don't you ask the girls in your group to fix you up with someone they know sometime?

If you're making no effort on your own to meet girls, because you're too shy; then maybe it's going to be a long time before you do meet someone.

Do what everyone else is doing and just introduce yourself to someone available that you think you might like.

It's time to stop following the group like a lost puppy and man-up a little.

Girls like guys with confidence and personality. Not overly-shy types that get scared, goofy, and awkward when they're around them. Practice by getting up the nerve to talk to girls. If you get shot down, so what? Otherwise,

continue to tag along as the only guy without a date.

They're not going to just walk up to you and ask to be your girlfriend, and offer you sex. If one ever did, she'd probably be teasing you, or expect money in return.

Don't sit around waiting for things to happen to you.

Devise a plan and make it happen. That's what the other guys and girls do.

This is like me, you just have to ignore them and then the time will come when you'll have a boyfriend as well. If they brag about it, just ask them to stop, they'll understand
