How Do I Handle Being Single?

I have no idea what to do. I am coming to the end of my school year and I haven't had a boyfriend in 5 years. My friends have all had boyfriends and most of them are in a relationship now. I don't know how to handle it. Why are lads attracted to my friends but not me? Many guys have told me I'm great to be around and they don't understand why I'm not in a relationship. I've been asked twice but they weren't the guys for me. What shall I do?

      Its all good i am sure your a great person with a lot to offer don't beat yourself up due to the fact that you have not had a serious relationship. i bet you if you just be patient and wait for the right person they will come and you will be very happy and enjoy it. a lot of people jump into relationships due to the fact that they are afraid to be alone it honestly takes a strong person to be able to wait for a good match. i will tell you this i have jumped into a lot of relationships just cause the person was interested and all of them ended up not good and very damaging to me and my mate.  no relationship is better then one with someone who is going to bring down the person you are and kill your moral values. I would like to wish you the best of luck

        I've been where you are, listen I know it's hard when it seems all your friends have a relationship but what about asking if their boyfriends have single friends where you can go out on a double date.  It will be great chance to get to know people and have fun.  Also, try to keep your self occupied like going to the gym or finding a hobby you like to do.  I know when I was single I liked to go have a few drinks and sing karoke.  I know its a bar but it was what I loved doing and it helped me get to know other people and just relax and had fun.  Good luck to you

        Do not panic. First of all, it might be better to concentrate on your marks the last few months of your last school year.
        Secondly (this might sound harsh, please don't take it the wrong way though) do not seem desperate or upset about it.
        When the time is right, someone will come into your life.
        If guys say you are fun to be around, that means you are a good friend to them.
        These days guys seem to be scared to ruin good friendships with a relationship.
        Is there anyone you fancy? Show them that you care, although do not throw yourself at that person.
        Friendship in the long haul could become more than friends.
        Finding your life partner and making it work takes a lot, and you need to know exactly what you are looking for.
        Think about the perfect person for you in a fond manner - Law of attraction.
        Look around you for any subtle signs of a guy perhaps liking you, do not constantly think about your friends being in relationships and you not. It is fun being single, enjoy it.

        Speaking out of experience : My fiance and I have been best friends for 6 years, we only realised we actually had feelings for each other after a year of being best friends.
        Take it slow and do not worry, things happen for a reason. Good luck!
