How to keep myself from attatching to guys online?

Most people have the same deep desire - to be loved and have someone commit to spending their life with you. I sure do, at my core that's what I want more than anything else.

But it doesn't mean I'm going to sit and wait for it. I'm not a Disney Princess and life isn't a fairytale... no one is going to rescue me and make my life wonderful. That's my job.

There are no instructions for life. Except to eat, breathe, use the bathroom, etc. No one, anywhere in the world, can give you a fool-proof step by step process to landing a man. If you want to try, I'm sure you could find plenty of books online to purchase... they might even have some good advice hidden in there, but still won't make your ideal man show up in your life.

So while no one can give you step-by-step instructions, we've all been giving you the best and most common-sense advice we can think of. Which you reject and for some reason say is impossible. The various things suggested are the goals you can work towards that will help give your life more meaning, open opportunities, lead to a healthier lifestyle, expose you to more people, and make you more of an all-around more desireable person because you'll be independent, successful, and hopefully happier.

As it is, you have two goals: to be a vet tech and to find Mr. Right. But you are just seeming to sit around and be miserable in the meantime. Working towards the vet tech is a good goal - but you seem to have a lot more time so why not pick up more work to be able to afford it sooner? Or apply for a student loan? They are in fact both possible.

Why not get your driver's license since you say you can't walk for 45 minutes, have ignored tips for taking taxis, and won't get a lift in with your family when they go to work both because you don't want to rely on them (even though they pay for everything else) and because you'd be in town for their entire work shift. So, get a license and at least work towards independence where you could at least borrow the car and use it and pay for gas.

Just pick a more attainable, and more immediate goal, to work towards.
