I was at the same place you were a few years ago. And you know what I did? I became my own best friend. I asked myself, how was your day? I learned that I don't have to go to others for advice or support when I can really hold myself up. Granted, I have some great friends, and loved spending the time with them, but I had to learn that there isn't anything I can't handle, and I don't need anyone to support me emotionally. It made all of my friendships better, because we weren't friends out of necessity, but out of desire. And it was also wonderful to know that when I met a guy, he only had the potential to be my friend. They all knew that I wasn't going to pursue romantic interests at that time in my life. And don't you really want a guy who is a friend first, and then more? Once I stopped looking for it, got my head on strait, and started pursuing what I wanted, then it fell in my lap. And trust me, I fought it tooth and nail, told this guy I didn't want to go out with him, but he didn't give up, and he is wonderful. I can't tell you how thankful I am for the time I gave to myself and no one else, it has changed who I am today, and made me ready for the relationship I am in.
Girl, I am almost 25, and I don't feel the need to be married. My brother is almost 33, and he isn't married. And it was hard for him to spend 12 years out of highschool without anyone, but he is a better man for it. Hmm, maybe you should date my brother...
