forever alone

i am 18 years old.. and i am lonely. i have alot of friends sure but i have never been in a relationship before. i never had a boyfriend or someone i could call mine. i really want to feel loved, i want to feel that there is someone who really cares about me. i have only liked tried with 2 guys and both of them turned really bad. glad it never lasted long and i only saw him once barely. so yeah people say that i look good. why can't i have a boyfriend? my social circle is wide but the thing is there is no guys in it.. or maybe just a couple. i don't what to do to find someone good specially that i have some things i can't tolerate. i want someone who is worth my heart. i am just really lonely and now i am depressed because of it. maybe the problem is with me.. maybe i don't deserve love..

You are young with your whole life ahead of you. It will happen.

It will happen. When I was 18 I was the same way, just searching and searching for someone. Then I had found him and its not what I expected. But live and learn. It will come. Just widen your social circle a little more. Go out more. Be young. Enjoy yourself.

I know what it feels like to be lonely, to wonder if you'll ever find a companion. I'm 23 and I haven't so much as been kissed yet, but it's not too late for me so it's definitely not too late for you either. You just have to keep yourself out there, be careful though. Unfortunately there are some guys who would take advantage of your loneliness. But don't feel like you have to find love by a certain age either. Love is timeless.

We can attract healthy people into our lives only if we are happy on our own, only if we love ourselves. Are you happy? Do you love yourself? The worst mindset to have when you get into a relationship is that the other person will complete you, they will fix you. I highly suggest you dont do this because it will end really badly for you. Love yourself first, and love from someone else will happen.

^ bang on.

I wonder why it's really difficult to do something you've never done before or stop doing something you always do?

Yes you do deserve love! We all do. Don't give up you are so young and your whole life is about to open up to endless possibilities...Focus on yourself, pamper yourself and do what makes you happy. When you aren't looking for love that's when it will appear.

You attract in life what you project. So for example you don't feel worthy of love, you don't attract love into your life. You are so young, there is so much more than love and all that in your life right now. I would suggest to try and focus and working on you to find the best you who is happy and balanced and worthy of love. Study, get some hobbies, find a spiritual retreat or work with animals. But do something that makes you happy and smile from the inside out.
Ps we all deserve to be happy and have love.

I think you are putting the cart before the horse.

Do not look for romantic partners - just work on slowly expanding your social circle to include more guys. Why does your social circle have no guys in it? Did you go to a girls' school? Are you in college yet? If you are, is the college co-ed?

You also need to treat the depression - sunlight, cardio, a good sleep routine, etc. If these remedies do not work, then maybe see a doctor, but try them first. The sentiment you expressed - not deserving love - signals some ongoing depression.

Try to kills two birds at once - say, look up some kind of a hiking group on MeetUp, make sure it is co-ed, and try it out. You will get to expand the social circle, you will get sunlight, you will get exercise, etc.

I agree, with HB. So much ahead, relax, enjoy, loads of time. It's got to be right, at the right time. Not a plaster. You are so young, a whole life time ahead. Enjoy, relax !
