I know a few people who are/been in relationships and it made me really sad. This is making me want to gain confidence. I want to stop feeling inadequate.
Sometimes I see how other people's social lives are and I start to wish I had that. I go to a community college and some of my friends are spread out so it is hard to maintain my social life (hard to explain).

Maybe focus on how you can increase the odds/work toward having what they have? I met my first crush on a double date--he was a very good friend of my gfs bf. It was luck that we liked each other enough to continue to date. I went on a lot of bad dates where I discovered I had no desire for a 2nd date or the guy never asked me out again. You get more dates when you go where the other sex goes. I met my husband on active duty in the military. There are no guarantees but you can increase the odds. What about moving closer to campus or finishing college ASAP or transferring to a university for your last two years? Try to make your own luck.
