Well they do say when you give up looking is when it finds you . I like to hang out here but I certainly don't expect to come across my dream man. I have a friend who does nothing but look and talk about various guys she is meeting from online... She sounds really desperate. I used to think I needed someone to make me happy, now I am realizing that I am happy by myself and I think that makes me a little more picky about who I attach to and who I don't. There is a difference between seeing people and getting overly attached. That comes from trying to fill some need that you should be filling yourself.
SickOfHurting: So I am wondering what the point is to looking for that special one...I don't even know why i activated my account...I have been hurt so many times and every time i keep coming back for more...so go on world, just keep doling out more pain and heart break.
You're young and very impressionable. Perhaps, what you think is love is not actually love or maybe you fall to quickly, I am an old-fashioned romantic so it is very easy to get hurt.
Learn to love yourself, get to know yourself and start listening to what you want and need, your heart will tell you. Be aware of your gut instincts, watch out for red flags and learn to have fun and keep an open mind about new people.
Someday soon your significant other will find you, but only if you slow down enough to let him.

It is perfectly OK (and sometimes advisable) to NOT DATE for a good while and just focus on living your own life, pursuing whatever interests you may discover. Take a dance class, join a hiking group, travel, do things that may be no longer be an option when/if you are married with children down the line. RIGHT NOW is a time of freedom and discovery. Don't squander it on the "mission to find a man." The man will show up when you are really ready.

Relax, have fun and enjoy your life.
You'll meet someone nice sooner or later.
Don't be too attached to the idea of meeting someone. The more you 'grab' it, the more it runs away from you. If you want to keep anything in your life - you must be RELAXED with it.
