Everyone gets this phase,over a time relationship starts. It pains more when u find ur friend romance on phone ,beautiful couple kissing on street . If itz becoz lack of no opportunity pray to god . And of itz becoz of dignity . Forget all odds . Be,Live,Earn,Enjoy ur own ....

Actually no. I've been a loner all throughout my life (haha it's okay I like being one) and loneliness for me is when you lack purpose loneliness is NOT lack of company. I've never really felt sad when I'm alone.
I really love the idea "I complete myself". Sure it's great to have a special someone
throughout your life but if you don't value or love yourself who would?

I agree with you. We always have to love ourselves first and not be dependent of a new relationship to be happy.

So very true mewpeach07 & moneywinner
I've heard it said that one can be alone and not feel lonely, and one can be in a crowd and feel lonely.
Number one is to be comfortable with yourself and be your own best company. Then when you meet someone else you have more to offer but can remain your own best friend.

Hi daylight7,
I am single but I don't think that way. I don't think that I suck because I have no one. It does not always mean that you're happy because you're in a relationship with someone. There are some who are miserable. Well I might sound bitter but I'm not. There are a lot of things to be happy about. We've got friends, family, job. I guess it's just a state of mind. It's up to you whether you want to be happy or lonely. Life is short so might as well enjoy it. Don't worry I believe there is someone out there perfectly made just for you.

I agree with you. Sometimes, people think if they are not in a relationship then life don't worth at all. I don't like when I see movies that the main carachter is miserable in the beggining and have a sad life, but when he meet a new love then everything is perfect. Life is a lot more than that!!

When I was single It happened to me very often. I was thinking that it would be nice to have someone near me. When I found someone, that person was I think from hell. And I was thinking that time how would be nice to be alone again. I was treated pretty badly. When finally I owned my freedom again I wasn't thinking about any relationship. After all this bad story I was alone two years and guess what. I found a man when I did not look for anyone. So... Be careful what you wish for... Have a nice day!

Not necessarily for me. If singleness is viewed in a negative sense, then somehow you would feel that way, that you're missing out. Anyway, if ever you personally decide that you to have someone to be with then there are many ways to do that. Happiness and satisfaction in life does not only depend on singleness or on being married. So while still being single, you can try to engage yourself in many things that would further develop your character or career which could become a plus when you decide to look for someone.

I used to think that being single was great. In some aspects, it is, but eventually, when I go home at the end of the day, it is a cold place to be. No longer do I hang out with my friends, because all of them have girlfriends, and wives. I am the only one without someone. I'm not playing the woe is me card. Most of it is my fault. The first time I fell in love, I had no idea how to deal with it. That is something very powerful when one is young. I have dealt with powerful cars that were easier to grasp than love. Needless to say, it didn't work. My family never talked to me about this stuff. And for a while, I tried my best to avoid it as much as possible. I almost fell in it again, but the results of that were disastrous. One has to learn how to control it before they can use it because it can bring happiness, but also very dark emotions. I have experience both sides, and didn't like where they took me. I tried my hand at asking people out, but I have always been rejected for some reason or another. When you're younger it is so bad, but when you are 30 and never had a girlfriend, emotions can get a little tricky to manage. You get impatient, fight desperation, jealous, and start questioning yourself, and it pulls you into a dark side. Now, if you excuse me, I need to get myself together. Someone has some flirting to do.

When I was young and single that happened to me too. I have never had a boyfriend until I was 23 and i married that man after three years. Prior to that I had crushes and in fact fell in love deeply with someone who didn't reciprocate my feelings. It was really depressing sometimes especially when all of my friends had their own partners but i didn't. But that kind of feeling didn't last and didn't come often as well, because i was surrounded by mail friends who appreciate me.
For a long time all i could write in my diary are the names of my crushes. There were men who admired me but i just didn't feel that they were worth my time. I wasn't in a hurry to just date anybody who asked me out, but i was waiting for someone who can make me breathless by just the site of him. Yes i was a romantic fool. I owe it to being young then!

I feel like that most days too. But you have to remember that your family loves you. Do you have a favorite relative? Or one that you would like to know more about? Start talking to them more often and get to really know them. While building a relationship you're also learning good people skills that will make finding friends you can relate to easier. Just remember, there is someone that loves you.

see the good side of it, being single is liberty, it depends on what you do with it, pues if you want a serious relationship being single is hard, but don feel bad about that just think there is someone sweet out there that is looking for someone just like you.
i used to feel that way but not any more cause i see the good side of it.
