well thats not technically true, but i have never been kissed in the right way, i've never been in a relationship of any kind in my entire life.
I want a boyfriend, for the first time in my life, i want a boyfriend now, i feel other areas of my life are beginning to make sense, and that i'm now 20 it seems normal.
The only social activities i do is to go out clubbing, and that is the wrong type of guy you attract wen out drinking!!
I go to female only kick boxing.
all my friends are in relationships.
I feel like bridget jones.
Oh and if i fancy someone, i become a mute!
anyone got any advice, i want to be in a relationship! but i find it totally impossible!!

I was forty-four when I started my first real serious relationship. And she was the one who taught me how to kiss the right way. So, dont worry, there is time enough.

I did not go out hunting for love, I did not 'conquer' her heart or something like that. I quite simply met her on a support forum similar to this one. Our hearts and souls clicked in that amazing way and the outcome was pretty much inevitable. Even so, it was her who asked me first!

And that may be a better way for you to first meet more and new friends and then, who knows what can happen.
With the internet its easy to find places where like minded people come together.
It need not be a dating site, that is not what I am suggesting. But quite simply getting to know people online and see what happens. Don't force anything. Go with the flow. Let go of all your fears and expectations. Forget what your friends are doing, its not a race. For all you know you may find the love of your life while they only find divorce attorneys in their future. You never know and the only life that matters is yours.

And as for your trouble communicating this is a wonderful solution. I am a horrible introvert. I could never possibly ask a girl out. I would die on the spot. But on the internet all the old patterns are different. You can express yourself here, even when you are an introvert. And when the time comes for that first real life meeting you already know enough about each other to remove most of that tension.

And as for suggestions. Very fun places to go are sites that specialise in meyer briggs personality profiles. You can figure out exactly who you are and what you want out of life and out of your partner to be.

Find an activity you want to explore where there are guys? My girlfriend met her husband square dancing, of all things. Take a class where there are likely going to be more guys than girls. I met my husband at work; you never know where you're going to meet someone; you know any tamer pubs where a not-so-bad professional sort might go after work?

It sounds like a cheap way to do it, but if you really like someone and you simply can't bring yourself to ask him out, you can ask a friend to bring him the news, or write him a letter. If he's worth dating, then he won't think twice of it. You can't help the fact that you get shy, and finding a way around that is a lot better than letting someone special slip by without asking.
