I'm 29 years old and I've never had a serious relationship with a guy. And it seems the older I get the harder it is to try to find someone. Maybe I'm picky, I don't know. I am shy, but only with strangers (at clubs and bars) and I'm getting too old for the club/bar scene anyway, I never wanted to meet a guy that way in the first place. Maybe I don't get out and meet new people enough. All I know is I've been single for a loooooong time and I don't want to be anymore.

Celtic, don't make it a race, good things come to those that wait. To be single this long, you have standards, DO NOT lower them just to be married; doesn't work. Do something different to meet new people, never know what you may find.

So you haven't settled...good for you. You're a beautiful woman, I'm sure that on any number of occassions you could have been in a relationship, but something wasn't right about the guy or the situation. Good job keeping your standards high and not compromising on anything that's going to make you happy!

It'll find you...sometimes we just have to wait patiently, no matter how hard that may be.

I've been single for 3 years...It seems like an eternity...and I bet one of the most frequent questions you get asked on here is..."Are you really single?" or "What is someone who looks like you doing here?"

When open to all possibilities of life...all of life's possibilities are there for the taking.

Best of luck!

Didn't you post this exact same topic a week or so go ago? I know you did because I responded to it. Are you maybe looking for some different answers or what?

I agree with sage, let it come to you, dont be in a hurry, when u least expect it, its bound to happen!!!!!!!

The Surpremes had a song called " you can't hurry love you just have to wait it's of game of give and take".

Thanks for the pep talk, fingerpaint. It's good to know that being single may not be all that bad.

And no, Sappony, my other thread was about having a hot friend, remember? Maybe hanging out with her too much is part of the reason why I'm still single, lol....I kid, I kid.

I digress....you are right...and I am wrong....please accept my humble apologies....

its ok, Sap.....seems like the same old song anyway, doesn't it? *sigh*

Yeah, what everyone else said is pretty much hitting the nail on the head there.

Not lowering your standards, and if you want to meet someone, maybe going through a different routine. Like instead of going home one night, stop by at a shop, restaurant....I mean, there's no telling where you can meet Mr. Right. That person could be anywhere at anytime. :)

Reba McEntire
Somebody


At a diner down on Broadway they make small talk
When she brings his eggs and fills his coffee cup
He jokes about his love life
And tells her he's 'bout ready to give up
That's when she says,"I've been there before
Keep on lookin'
'Cause maybe who you're lookin' for is..."

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there is somebody

Across town in a crowded elevator
He can't forget the things that waitress said
He usually reads the paper
But today he reads a stranger's face instead
It's that blue-eyed girl
From two floors up
Maybe she's the one
Maybe he could fall in love with

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there
Is somebody

Now they laugh about the moment that it happened
A moment they'd both missed until that day
When he saw his future in her eyes
Instead of just another friendly face
And he wonders why
He searched so long
When she was always there at that diner waiting on

Somebody in the next car
Somebody on the morning train
Somebody in the coffee shop
That you walk right by everyday
Somebody that you look at
But never really see
Somewhere out there
Oh somewhere out there is somebody



**I couldn't have stated it better myself**

Who you run with does have a big effect on who you meet.


"Bird of a feather, flock together"

Do you want a life like your friend?
Does she have YOUR standards for life?

Successful people associate with successful people.

Try reading some self help books.

dont loose hope.. its all we have....

no worries your a beautiful girl expect it to be right in front of you when you least expect it.. and be happy he'll be drawn to you!!

yeah im not sure where the best place is to meet men???

church? - not sure cause what if they dont cuss or drink, then you'll have to behave. no way!! i like to drink too much.

bars or clubs - not sure on that one either. more than likely those are just places to meet guys and have a one night stand. yuck!!!!

market or library - possibility??

wedding or a funeral - possibility??

where ever it is, just think smart!!!

maybe i need to listen to that old saying that goes something like "sometimes when you stop looking, love will find you."
