i'm 24 years old and still single. Everyone around me is either not single or getting married.. and here I am still struggling to even get a date with a girl or for a girl to even show any interest in me.
I can chat with a girl.. but that is as far as it goes.. just a small chat. I can never fit the "want to go grab a coffee later" in the conversation or know when to do so.
meh. welcome to the club.
on the bright side you'll never get a divorce like your friends that were stupid enough to get married at 24.
love is like luck.
you can't hurry.
Don't try to solve life's issues with a relationship. People are happy in sudden relationships because they think that they were worse off before, but really now all they're doing is heaping their issues onto someone else, thinking that person will solve everything. Ergo, break-up.
>>2 This person is right. Been there, done that, was even 24.
Are you being peer pressured into dating?
I don't know how it is for the OP, but I'm going to be 24 soon and haven't ever had a relationship that wasn't long-distance 90% or more of the time. I met every girl on the internet. I'm now wondering if I'm just too socially awkward, not physically attractive, or too outspoken to have a date with a girl.
In other words, I'm not so concerned about having a girlfriend now, but I am concerned about the possibility of it in the future, rejection, what society thinks of me, etc.
And yes, I've spent a good portion of my time telling myself/ trying to convince myself that society's opinions don't matter, but I'm also an OCD/Anxietyfag. Any psych students beyond the 300 level should have an idea as to how hard it is for me to change my patterns of behavior.
>>8 Yeah society does not like "loners". It's all a big conspiracy, you see by staying alone you consume LESS (e.g.children,...) so the government started operation Virgin 268- also known as "valentine". The purpose was to agitate these loners or how the goverment called them "losers". Now a days loners are being targeted every fucking day, from TV (movies as 40 year old virgin,teen shows) to all kinds of media..They wanna rub it in. They wanna make you feel like shit, THERE IS SOMETHING wrong with you! YES ! Go have sex! get married! CONSUME!
this worked so well that other countries "franchised" this method from censored.
But this did not work in some countries as it all backfired...yup suicide(japan).

Philosophy is self-help for intellectuals. Try it.
>>11 Philosophy & Psychology BS student here. Don't see how that really is relevant at the moment, besides a realization that societies are made of up changing norms, and that there is no real basis for general norms.
