I Wish I Was In a Great Relationship

Everywhere I look, people are in relationships, and it's making me sad. I want to feel their happiness. Two of my best female friends have boyfriends, my stepsister has a boyfriend, even my twelve year old sister is "dating" someone. Where's my boyfriend? Where's my happiness?

Aww you just have to try. People don't come to you. Go out to a bar or a concert and get some numbers.

Because people totally have "I AM GAY COME AND DATE ME" written on their foreheads. 😩 Anxiety keeps me from going places, I'm 18 but look so young for my age, going to a bar isn't an option (and I really don't want to be around drunk people), concerts cost money, etc. I'll get through this though.

@Marluxia: Listen to me. Your over thinking it big time. Find any place filled with people and just ask. That's all you have to do. Really. Eventually you'll find someone. Not everybody at a bar is drunk dude lmao I went to bars when I was 18. It works. You need to just have the courage to put in the effort.

@DanniRoxi: I'm not overthinking things. I don't like bars. Period. There's alcohol involved. There's probably smoke in the air from cigarettes. So yeah, that is not for me. I'll just continue what I'm doing, talking to guys on dating sites, going to the mall and just walking around.

@Marluxia: People don't smoke in bars anymore dude and not everybody drinks. I can tell you've never been to one. Just try it. It's just a place where it's very easy to talk with people. Do something different. Don't play it safe. You might suprise yourself with what you find.

@DanniRoxi: Like I said: bars are a no-no. There'll be at least one person in there who's drunk There will be alcohol. The bars over here allow smoking. There are people of all ages at bars. No. I want to be around only 18-20 year olds. That is it.

@Marluxia: I guess were just very different people. I wanted to be around all that stuff when I was your age. To each their own.

@DanniRoxi: Like I said, I have anxiety, I don't like being around new people if I'm not in a group of my own friends, I don't like being around people who drink, cigarette smoke makes me throw up, loud noises make me nauseated (which is weird because I'm a loud person).

@Marluxia: Your going to find out on your own that moving out of your confront zone and conquering anxiety will get you places. You don't believe me but you'll see it one day. Your just young and not confident in who you are yet. But everybody is like that as a teenager, Don't worry, you'll grow up and with time move past it.

@DanniRoxi: I didn't say I didn't believe you, I do, and I'm very confident in who I am as a person, I love who I am.

@Marluxia: You have rooted confidence issues with new people and oddly enough, bars. Work on it and good luck regardless.

@DanniRoxi: I'm good at meeting people, like at a mall or at school, but bars, nope. And thank you.
