I would head to DoubleYourDating.com.  The author, David DeAngelo, is a legend in this field.  If you like his introductory information, you should consider buying his books.  I have all his materials, and based on his knowledge, I have girls all over the place.  Hell, they're watching me type this right now, lol.

i'm always amazed that some people can write the nasty stuff they do just because they know how to type! rather than giving violations for writing adult content, they should give violations for being rude and nasty...anyways...we're all afraid at some point we're going to be alone and even when in a relationship when we feel comfortable there is always a risk that it might not work out and we'll be alone again. what is it you're looking for in a relationship, what is it you are looking for in a guy? i think you need to find someone you can be friends with before anything else, that way you'll always have stuff to share. also what is it, you feel that you want that you haven't gotten yet that means you are still alone? feel free to email me if u want to talk more ;-)

I am going to put a "watch" on this question, so that later on my 16 year old daughter can answer it, too.  Like you she doesn't drink, or do drugs. She also has not had sex. And yes, sometimes she has felt lonely, and like the odd person, but as time has gone by she has made friends with other kids like her, though that took a little time to find them.\n\nI think, at least, I hope you know, you are not a loser. I am thinking that you and my daughter might be somewhat alone in feeling the peer pressure, though-- and you want to know why? Because in order to feel pressure, you have to resist and the ones who are all "doing it" have NOT resisted, they just gave in. Now they pressure you because the fact you resist when they didn't shows them to be the losers, the weak, the easily led. \n\nGood luck to you.  High school does end one day, but a quality life is forever.

Man, I like your personal ad I am very impress. Im kind of like what you describe except I dont have any kids and I already have my degrees ...Im 34 in Chicago. I have the same problem too ,but with females. Females I run into they smoke(weed), drink and party... EVERYDAY, I cant do it EVERYDAY. I have plans and goals not to mention A JOB.I came to the conclusion probably I attract that type of woman because of the people I hang with from time to time.

Yes! Yes! By all means!  You have a lot to live for.  First of all, you will always have YOURSELF.  You must learn to appreciate the things you enjoyed as a child, before sex and boys became a factor in your life.  You have parents who are probably somewhat disappointed with your recent attitudes but still care about you(or they would put you out)and you can always make new friends if you learn to be a friend to the people you meet.  Stop concentrating so hard on the "me" and start looking at others problems, strengths and needs.  Everyone has problems, some worse than others. So, you are not alone. You have a good mind and writing ability.  Develop your interests by learning from life's experiences and you will become indispensable to someone who will not want to "PLAY".  Everyone gets played at sometime.

Friendship is more important to some people than others.  I do believe that one should have associates at least, too always be isolated is not good for you.  If you are not the type to give of yourself to a friend in almost the same effort as a relationship then socializing would be best for you. Like me I'm moody and very picky about people I don't have allot of friends.  I tend to focus in more on family and the special little and big things they bring to my life.   I have lost about 4 friends (so called) in less than 5 years, so I'm through with that now myself.  Just be free you don't belong to anybody but yourself.  Joining social and creative groups with people most like you for me is more beneficial than friends!

What you respect you will attract. If you are financially smart, and truly have the intention to do good, it's impossible that you won't find any likeminded people. If you're not like the person you would like to meet, it might become more difficult.

You wife may not be anti social but suffering from depression.  Also being a stay at home mom cuts you off from society. I was a stay at home mom and after awhile I had no self esteem when it came to adult conversation.  As far love goes I think that comes and goes in all long term relationships.  Couples have to work to stay in love.

I'm in my 30's and to be honest I wouldn't consider dating a man under 30, and not many of my friends would either.... I don't think I would have much in common with someone 10 years my junior.

For the sake of us older men, PLEASE be outgoing and sociable.  Most single older women are completely twilight zone.  It would be nice to see some normal older women who are still available and not afraid to let people know about it.

I have exactly the same problem.   I was teased because we were poor and I had buck teeth and wierd hair.  My last job, I worked with a young man and a woman about 8 years younger than me and they completely ignored me.  They didn't even include me in job-related conversations.  I have never fit in anywhere.  Are you straight and religious?  I have found that a lot of places where I go, people are mostly talking about bars and sports and stupid things so I don't talk to them and they don't talk to me either!  I was told I have social anxiety and I believe that our problems lie somewhere in not really caring if we talk to anybody, but yet we want attention.  We don't have the confidence that people will be interested in what we say.  I always figure how many people would be interested in somebody like me who is a bookworm, does not do anything but think about how to decorate my kitchen or where to plant my next rosebush.        I don't know.  I think we need to find happiness in ourselves and be happy who we are.  Sometimes you have to just push yourself in to other people's cliques at least just for a moment to let them know you are not stuck up (maybe that's what they think).  If people cannot look past another person's looks or have empathy for a quiet person, then they are not worth having as a friend anyway.  By the way, I am also the person left sitting alone during breaks when I am taking a class or whatever.  It is what we choose or we wouldn't be sitting there.  I just don't like to go outside where everybody else is smoking, etc.

Start a young women's club. Get together every other day or so and go for a nice long walk and talk with each other, have fun.

I'm sorry, but 1) this forum is for questions about College and Graduate School, not finding friendship.\n\n2) Yahoo! Answers is not a dating site. If you wish to find a nice girl in Dombivli, please go to http://personals.yahoo.com\n\nGood luck in your search.

They can be married, lonely or curious. No one will admit to it but I am sure alot of people do it. Maybe start a conversation off innocently and then it just turn into it. If its a teenager or someone in their 20s I would have to agree with you these people can't get laid and are losers.
