Woooo GIRL, let me tell you. I KNOW what you mean.
I totally feel behind too, even though I am younger than you it's not by that much. I have never had a boyfriend - hell, I've never DATED anyone. Moreover never been in love for that matter! I've gone on dates, but never dated anyone. And sometimes I feel strong and like I don't need a man, and other times I wonder what it feels like to be one of those girls holding hands with a guy walking down the street. I've kissed, and 80% of those kisses have been under the influence of something.
All of my friends have been in relationships before. Serious ones. I'm talking a year or more. And I am the last out of my group of 4 friends to get a guy. I complain to them about it but they can't even relate to me anymore - they've all had boyfriends for so long they forgot what it's like to be single. I hate being inexperienced sometimes.
You know what gets me through the days? I know it sounds silly, but I just tell myself I'm like the SATC girls. (I know, if you saw the end it spoils everything, but still. There are lots of in between moments for all of them) I tell myself I'm like Carrie - someone who won't settle for less than butterflies. I'm single, fabulous (bahah or I try to be) I have my schoolwork to worry about, a social life to tend to - I don't need a man right now. If he comes, then he'll come. I rarely get asked out (even on dates!)...in fact, I almost never do. I used to feel sad about that. But now it's not that important to me anymore. I think if you surround yourself with friends and family who love you, that is a start. Love yourself - have a great relationship with yourself - and love will find you. That is what I am holding out for.
I know, it gets hard, it really does. But just think of Carrie and the girls
it works! And hey, they were just getting started when they were 35, not 25!! Have you thought about trying services like eHarmony? My sister met her future hubbie through there and let me tell you, he is a GREAT guy. Lovely, more than anything we could all ask for (the family loves him!) And yes they are in love. So don't mark it out if you're truely curious!!
