I'm sure there are some nice monasteries that would love to have you.

And YOUR FRIENDS LIST,, has some very cute choices for ya..

Theels08,

On the serious side, try and find friends that are woman first. Don't have a hidden agenda and just hang with them. As soon as the word gets around that you are a great guy, the women will eventually come.

Sometimes love finds you when you least expect it.

I don't know how old you are but you look fairly young in your photo. If you are in your early 20's then I feel for you, man.

Why are there so many posts lately about people "giving up" on the opposite sex, or love, dating, etc. If that is your attitude, then dating or relationships are not the answer for you anyhow. I look at it like this; I don't need to have a significant other. I am not desperate to "have someone". I am something even if I am single.
No one else should be able to make or break you. It doesn't work. Thinking that a girlfriend will make everything great is not true. Relationships come with problems....they don't solve the existing problem. You need to be comfortable with being one with yourself before you enter a relationship. It took me a lot of heartache to learn this.

Amen, sister! I'm new here but I have already seen my fair share of people who somehow think finding a partner will make them happy in life. You have to find your own happiness first, learn to love yourself and then you are ready to start searching (unless it comes to you).
