I know how you feel in a lot of ways, and it's not easy. But I think it's really important for people to gain a strong sense of self worth so that they are happy outside of a relationship, before going into one. Really you want to be going around not 'needing' a relationship to feel happy, but getting into one because it complements your life and is really positive.
That's not to pretend that being single is better than being in a relationship - although there are obviously perks - everyone misses just the little things like cuddles.
But you say in your post that you 'must be ugly' because nobody wants to go out with you, but I sincerely, sincerely doubt that. There are so many guys in a similar position to you but say that they can't find a girl who is interested in them or responds at all to their interest, so kind of on the other side of the coin.
My personal belief, is relationships aren't something that can be forced. Step one is to believe and love yourself, because without that it's always going to be a struggle to find a perfect pairing. Step two, is to get out there and meet people - go out at least twice a month to something where you can meet new people (more is better!) - widen your social circle by meeting friends of friends, feel comfortable talking to strangers or at least people you haven't met before. Step three, the tricky one, is wait. Eventually you'll meet someone you click with, they'll ask you out or you'll ask them out.. and things go from there.
Unfortunately there is no magic recipe for getting into a relationship, but honestly it is so much less to do with appearance and so much more to do with self esteem.
I hope things pick up for you soon
I agree with everything Shyboy says, the most important thing is to be happy with yourself, being in a relationship inst necessarilly going to make everything better. Just think of all the things you dont have to worry about; making yourself up for him, making time and effort to see him, all the worries and paranoia that come with having a bf (if you're anything like me)
Next time you feel really down about this do what I do, have a get together with your friends, doesnt have to be anything big, have a giggle and a laugh and forget all about it, works for me
Trust me, Lexi is right when she says about having a giggle with friends. A good night out with friends is fantastic, you can let yourself go and have a laugh. And you never know, you may find the one then, when you least expect it
hope it helps x
My housemates boyfriend has just turned up with flowers and theyre being all romantic and lovey dovey
Oh dear
I don't have time for a proper relationship though. Work is my life. As pathetic as that sounds, I work almost constantly and I'm too wrapped up in reaching my goals to get blindsided by having somebody there to have to think about.
Either way, the best advice has already been said. You need to find some value in your life that adds up to happiness whether you're in a relationship or not. A little hanky panky holdy handy ain't gonna make a damn bit of difference if you're unhappy on the inside.
man I would take everyday flowers and sweets with me to my girlfriend, not especially for her but just to spite her roommates.
