Question - (22 April 2009) 4 Answers - (Newest, 22 April 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I am 19 years old and I have never had a boyfriend. I have gone on dates and kissed a couple of guys but nothing more than that. It makes me sad and depressed knowing that all of my friends have/have had boyfriends and have been in serious relationships and I haven't.

I feel like I am missing out on a lot. I know I am young. But I am fearful that I will just keep going in the same direction and end up alone later in life.

Am I the only person in this position? What can I do to change this situation?

I'm 21 and I feel the same way. I had one real relationship for about 1 year and he's left me for now. I'm also afraid of being alone forever and not being loved. I understand how you feel. You have so much love to give and you just want someone to return it and care for you. Here are some of my thoughts on what you can do: Go out more (not bars or anything but join clubs. I don't know if your in college but join different clubs, if your relgious join a religious club. Be open and friendly and talk to guys. Get help from guy friends and see if they know of anybody. You could try online dating (but you have to be careful). You can also just trying hoping, being positive, and praying that someday the man of your dreams will be in your life. Good luck!

The Gentle Man agony auntI somewhat understand your situation. Im just starting down the road to relationships myself.

Try asking a close friend to help you. Tell them how you feel and ask them if they can help you, if a relationship is truely what you want.

A close friend can go a long way to helping you in this situation.

Try to keep your chin up and be more OPTIMISTIC. I know it's easier said than done, but when you begin to feel more optimistic, you begin to feel more confident.

So turn that frown upside down :)
