Im a 26 yr. old female, I've never been in a relationship, and I've only ever casually dated 1 guy, but that was over a year ago. I can't date because guys aren't interested in me. Am I the only 1 in this situation?

At 26 I didn't get dates either. It was partly that girls weren't interested in me, and partly that I wasn't interested in them... or certainly, that I didn't focus on what it took to meet them enough.

It would help for you to find out why guys are not interested in you. You need to look at the vibe that you are giving out. Are you desperate ? Are you looking to get married quickly ? Want babies fast ? Have problems which you think a marriage or having a boyfriend can solve?

 

I'm not saying you are any of above. But sometimes we give out the vibes unknowingly and people can catch them from far away.

Why is nobody answering?

 

Slow down tiger! Not everyone is in the same country as you. The net is international and some people are working on different time zones.

 

You have to ask why arent guys interested in you?

 

Are you not approachable?

 

What is your fashion like?

 

How outgoing are you?

 

Are your friends mostley male or female?

We can't help you much because we can't see you or talk to you physically.

 

Hun it's all about confidence and attitude. I wasn't much to look at when I was 13, but I had np working it and getting a few BFs. I didn't sit there like a wallflower and wait for attention, I really put myself out there and made contact.

If you don't like games and you don't like mysteries, dating has nothing to offer but frustration. Viva la revoluçion! In the future we will step into our local clinic and murmer while strapped to a scientific device: "Give me another candidate, doc. because I'm lonely as ****."

 

It will be awesome :cool:

I was in that situation when I was 26! It sucked. I can't tell you much more than that...but if I could go back in time I'd tell 26-year-old perpetually-single me to get out more.

 

Why? Because even if I had zero success with men, I could observe the women who did have success and try to emulate them -- their clothes, their behavior, their speech. There were soooo many single men my age back then!

Not alone :) When I was a 26 year old female I NEVER dated in any form or shape. Never kissed a guy, never been on A date, never even thought of it (well, I was falling in love with men, but didn't have the desire to spoil my fantasy by acting on it :D)

 

And let me tell you, things at 27 changed (because I wanted to)... I don't think I've missed much by saving my prime years for myself. I had all the time in the world to educate and develop, so NOW I can focus on my role as a partner in a relationship (I think this is way too complicated for an average teen/early 20s to handle)

 

Btw sexually I don't think it was a bad choice either - at least I knew what I was doing when I started, not like some 17 yo unaware of safety and entertainment principles

 

So... all is just ahead of you

Meh, i'm 33 (a guy) and my last relationship was more than 5yrs ago.

 

It was so long ago that i can't be sure if it's closer to 5 or 6 yrs.

Well should I be really upset about not being able to date, or just a little bummed?

 

Why do you think you haven't had a relationship yet? Because it's obviously different for women

Because nobody normal and decent ever likes me. What do you mean it's obviously different for women?

 

Because as a woman, you are dealt with a different set of cards in the dating/mating game than men are, you are on the receiving end.

What do you consider to be normal and decent? What's your ideal guy?

Like attracts like. Perhaps you're a bit left of centre and would be better off looking for guys who are more unusual?

 

Are the rest of your friends bog standard 'normal'?
