Hey,

So lately I've been having some trouble deciding if I should even try to date someone.

Little background info on me since I only lost on here sometimes.

22, college educated and in my last year of university. Had a girlfriend throughout college (LD) and came home after graduating to be with her and go to school near her. At the end of the summer she left me out of nowhere. Was alone for about a year and met a girl on tinder and dated for about 3 months. She left me so went through this year alone as well. Almost dated one of my friends...she led me on and we kissed a few times but she ended up not wanting to date and I still want to date her but that won't happen since we are just friends and apparently I can get a bit annoying just being myself around her.

 

Anyways I'm feeling ready to date again but I'm graduating in April so I'm not sure its a good idea. The problem is I've given up on the idea of meeting someone in university really since most people are from out of town so that narrows the pool of people. The part time job I work is mostly high school students or the people my age who already have significant others. My job after I graduate for the summer I'll be the youngest person working there by about 8 years and its very small company.

 

I've considered asking a few of my good friends (who are in relationships...I'm friends with both the girl and the guy in the few couples I hang out with regularly) but it might be embarrassing asking them.

I'm not even sure how I'd go about asking? "Hey you know anybody who's looking to date someone?"

 

Is it a good idea to date now or should I just not even try? I've recently been feeling like I'm not someone people enjoy being in a relationship with because some people find me annoying. I make a lot of jokes because I feel that makes me more fun but then again maybe that's why some people see me as annoying?

I'm just being myself and I'm not sorry for who I am because I'm a pretty great person but I've been told by multiple friends that A) I'm an acquired taste and B) my sense of humour is weird.

After my past girlfriends have left me I've slowly grown into the person I am and feel like I'm my true self but apparently my personality isn't all that appealing.

 

I would like to date but I don't know if I should because maybe I'm not what people want and I really would rather not get hurt or play games...thoughts?
