ANSWERS: 18
  • Yes.. I felt that way for a long time. I moved from North Carolina to Florida in 1996 just two months after my first love and I ended our relationship. I was 19 and the parents were moving and I made the decision to leave my friends and everything to make the move. It was very hard. Hardest move I ever made but I knew I had to get away or keep getting sucked back into him when he clearly wanted his freedom... He had the cake and eat it too syndrome! I dated for years and it really started to get to me that I just was not getting into anyone. I dated a few truly wonderful guys but I just did not feel that pull inside for them and it was lonely. I stayed in a very long relationship and one day it just hit me that I was doing him so wrong. I did not have feelings strong enough to take me where he wanted to go and I was holding him back from finding someone who did want to go there with him into the future. So .. I ended it and kind of avoided the whole mess of serious dating until I found the man I am with now. My dad's best friend's son .. Dad and his best friend have been friends for many years and Jimmie lived in Cali so we never met before. A few years we have been together and we still do not live together.. we do on weekends.. but we have smoothly meshed our lives together and gotten to know each other and I am so connected with him that I honestly feel I was made for him. We are engaged and I feel truly blessed in life. The wait was worth it.. what if I had just settled because I thought it would not happen???? What if I had gone on to get married and stuff only to meet this man and feel the feelings I thought would not come... I would be miserable! Hold out.. trust me. Maybe you are not as ready as you think you are.. you are just feeling the loneliness of not loving someone and them loving you back.. it IS lonely not to love someone.. My every day is filled with thoughts of how to show him I love him .. it is wonderful to be loved but so precious to feel it for someone. Your time will come so do not settle for anything less than your heart's desire.
  • Yup all the time. Men are losers.
  • No. No negative thinking allowed!
  • Yeah - I did. I was a single parent in college and I was convinced that no guy would ever want me with a kid. I went out to South Carolina for a short internship for my degree, and my parents watched my son while I was gone. I met my husband there, and at first I didn't tell him I had a kid because I just wanted to enjoy myself with a summer fling. When I finally told him - he laughed at me. Laughed! And he said that any child of mine was sure to be as wonderful as me. And so we're married, he treats my son as his own, and now we have a second child. For sure, there's someone out there for everyone ♥
  • Yes, I am my own worst enemy in finding Mr. Right. I haven't found a man with enough right for me to feel like he's the one. There's a shopping list of things I just cannot and will not tolerate. As long as I have money, I'm fine. I love me some money :-))))
  • Yes Many times. I was never and still am not the worlds idea of good looking. While I don't think I am grotesque looking I do know I will never be viewed as attractive by any woman who is into physical appearances. I felt I would never find anyone to marry me and love me. So much so that I married the first girl I ever really dated. Big mistake that marriage was hell and ended almost 11 years later when she cheated on me and saw no wrong with what she did a few months later I met someone else and thought she might be the one but turnd out she was a psycho with severe trust issues after a few years I gave up then I met my sweetheart who I pretty much instantly fell for unfortunately after an almost 2 year beautiful romance she died leaving me broken hearted and devastated for the last couple of yesrs.Even though I lost her I will treasure our love forever.
  • Yeah I still kind of feel that way.
  • Yes, until I realized I had no clue who the "right" girl was for me. Every girl I thought was "right" turned out to be "wrong". I obviously didn't know what "right" was, so I stopped pretending and vowed to accept whatever woman entered my life. (18 years married and still going strong.)
  • many times...but that was 20 years ago..:)
  • Yes. And then I found her. =)
  • I swear, I think about this question every week. When you are single, you always feel like you will never find the right person, or any person for that matter.
  • Yes all the time. . .
  • I did when I had broken up with my first boyfriend... but since the passed however many of them... I think that I will find the right person someday...
  • I'm 37 and I have given up.
  • I have felt that way for about 39 years.
  • i thought i found the right guy for me, but he is not mine..so i guess he cant be the right one!
  • Sure... and when I gave up looking he fell in my lap!!
  • all the time since guys wont ask me out
