It worries me that I have such a hard time meeting men

Question - (16 June 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 16 June 2011)
A female United States age 36-40, *ellybeans20009 writes:

Hi there. I'm currently 23 and still in college. I'll be graduating, hopefully, next year. Right now school has been really busy and there hasn't been much time to expand my social circle. There are practically no extracurricular activities where I study as the school wants you to concentrate solely on your major.

I am older than most of my class by 2 years and my school is made up of 70% girls.

To get straight to the point, it's hard to meet single guys that I'm interested in. Sometimes when I do manage to find the time my friends and I will go to a club to dance and all, but most of the guys are not looking to get to know anyone that will last longer than one night.

I have had only one experience with a guy last summer and it was a lousy one. I have yet found someone who I could form a real, solid relationship with. I understand that I need to go out and meet people. I made a huge effort whenever I had the chance to, but nothing came up.

I live in a city, although it's not as big as New York or LA it's a fairly busy one with a large population. I've just come to find it's hard to come across any guys that I click with.

Am I being too impatient? It's just that I keep thinking that at my age I should be meeting guys and going on dates regularly and it shouldn't have to be this hard. Well, it is for some reason.

I have tried to join clubs and I will continue to go to events and etc but I really don't know. It feels like I am living in some sort of invisible bubble while all the single, available men are outside of it.

I don't expect to jump into a relationship right away but it worries me that I don't even know of any guys I would even consider dating. There is not even one.

aunt honesty agony auntReally you may think that this is not normal but believe me for many people it is. Obviously your life is dragging you on another direction and you are over thinking about meeting men, believe me good things comes to those who wait and also it seems that when you are quite content and happy being on your own and you are not really looking for a man then that is when he will come along. Just keep enjoying your life. Go out clubbing with your friends and enjoy yourself, keep yourself as busy as you can and believe me a man will come along when you least expect it.
