Hi girls, I hope some of you can join me on this very "girly" topic. Tomorrow it's Valentine's day and even though I'm not a fan of this holiday it always make me think of the fact that I've never been in a real relationship. It's kind of sad because it seems so easy for other people in my surroundings but impossible for me. I'm usually not the girl who complains about being single, I'm actually used to it. However, the society makes it hard sometimes, people are always asking etc. I think it's still better to be alone than to be in some toxic relationship but sometimes it makes me feel uncomfortable - once I was with two classmates and they began to talk about their relationships. I felt kind of excluded and then once of them mentioned some problems and the other said "at least you have a boyfriend" which made me feel quite bad as I was the only one who was single. Does anybody of you feel sometimes the same?

Well, my days of girlhood are long over, but I can understand how you feel. I had lots of male friends, but they weren't boyfriends. At the time I was very unhappy, because everyone else seemed to be in a relationship. However, in time I did meet men who were interested in me, so maybe you just need to be patient.
On the other hand .... I came to realise that relying on someone else to make me happy was pointless - the only person I could depend on was me. Other people (ie men) were just making me unhappy - I was wasting my life waiting for their approval. So although I still have lots of male friends and enjoy their company, I am content to be on my own.
