So my love life has been pretty stagnant. I'm in a cuddling dry spell ladies and it makes me sad! I met this guy last weekend who was really cool. He likes Michael Jackson and The Red Wings, and most importantly.... he loves to READ! Anyway we were flirting all night, but when we left he didn't ask for my number. Now I'm probably never going to see him again. I feel so unworthy!
Okay anyway.....sob fest over. I want some ridiculously gorgeous man to save me from death and then fall madly in love with me. NOW!
I hope the rest of you are more successful than I am. _________________ ~Molly~
Well that sucks. You probably will see him again stay positive about it. Besides if you do not see him, remember that there are more fish in the sea. Do not feel unworthy! There is more to life than men there are perfect men, like Edward. But in all seriousness if you two had that perfect connection for one night don't waste it find him.
I have a stuffed vampire bat named Edward, you can borrow him if it makes you feel better. _________________ "In this world love has no color, yet how deeply my body is stained by yours." J. Craqqette

Aww thank you! I totally want to borrow him!
I know, I don't really feel worthless. Sometimes it's just nice to be validated as an attractive person. _________________ ~Molly~

Don't worry, you are not alone! I'm loveless as well, though I've had enough drama to last me a life time...
my best guy friend apparrently likes me atm, but I don't, so it's a bit of an awkward situation atm, but luckily he's in Perth...but everytime I see a cute guy and I think "Ooo.." all I get is his sad eyes in my mind....
You see, I'm a pretty passionate person. Not like passionate passionate (I'm Christian - abstinence makes the heart grow fonder! ), but I don't think he is...
Oops. Sorry for venting.
So yea, I'm loveless as well. We can be the Loveless Club! _________________

*sigh* Men...can't live with them...can't live without them...
Aw, Molly, don't give up hope, maybe you will see that guy again! But like lymikimmie said, there are plenty of fish in the sea. And besides, your real-life Edward will come and find you one of these days! Stay positive!
I'm sure everyone's love life has been orders of magnitude more successful than mine. Not one single bf...that is pretty pathetic. And then Twilight came along and made my standards so high...
Lol, oh Edward, why must you be so perfect...AND fictional? _________________ "If I could dream at all, it would be about you. And I'm not ashamed of it."

Ahh, yes, I don't have anyone either, but we're only young, these things take time. I don't think there is any rush, when its supposed to happen, it will! _________________

Yeah, Molly. Don't give up! Even if you may never see him again, someone better might come along that blows him out of the water.
I've never had a boyfriend either, schoffie, but my standards have always been too high for guys I know to meet.
Anyway, I'm looking for a rich man. Handsome. Nice. Smart. Preferably a vampire, but I'll settle for a human. And I'm not kidding. I'm going on a road trip this summer, and a friend and I are searching for rich men to seduce. _________________
ConsequenceOfSound - I'm right there with you! I can't seem to find a decent guy and the guys I do attract...well, I'll give you the quick version:
I was engaged to a guy for 3 years (high school sweethearts) but he cheated on me with 2 girls. Being blind as I was at the time I took him back only to kick him to the curb later when I realized I couldn't trust him. That's something that'll screw up your faith in guys for awhile...
Then I went on a date with a guy who didn't know how to get to the restauraunt, didn't know what time the movie he wanted to take me to started and asked me to ask the waiter for a phone book so I could call the theater, his car didn't want to start, he kept asking me if I wanted to go watch people karaoke, and when we didn't go to the movie he wanted to see....he sang the theme song to me the whole night. No joke, the entire time I heard the theme song to "Transformers".....
And then I dated this guy briefly who thought I was amazing and fed me all these compliments only to want one thing....you can guess, the thing Edward refuses to do until after him and Bella are married. So when that didn't happen he stopped calling and this was months ago. And suddenly on Friday I get a phone call from him apologizing for his behavior.
I have more bad dates I went on, but you don't want to hear it. I'm not giving up on finding someone, i'm just tired of finding all the Mr. Wrong's. And I totally agree with ConsequenceOfSound when she said "I don't really feel worthless. Sometimes it's just nice to be validated as an attractive person." But when you've had bad date after bad date after bad date....it's really hard to stay positive. Especially when all your friends are getting married.

Aww thanks guys! I know exactly how you feel. Boyfriend.....uh nope not me. Apparently I'm good enough to date, good enough to make out with, and good enough to flirt with, but not good enough to make it official with. Though I'm sure some of that is my fault as well. I have such a high standard thanks to these damn novels that guys don't hold my attention for very long and the ones who do aren't interested back. Boys are LAME.
Lexi sweetie, that's terrible! Those guys sound like utter asses who don't deserve you. In the end though, it's a good thing that you didn't marry the jerk, especially right out of high school, it's really hard to maintain those relationships...as you clearly know. I admire that you want to wait to have sex until marriage, that's a very honorable thing and I think it's great that you're that devout. I feel you on the bad date thing, soooo bad. I'm sure that your Edward is our there, want to know why? Because if he isn't than life is completely unfair and fate is cruel; therefore he must exist. _________________ ~Molly~

It sucks too, when guys only see you as friends. I've got a lot of boy friends, who I can easily joke around with (some may call it flirting, but its not - they are your friends!). I get along with guys, I think i am somewhat attractibe with a decent personality, but apparently most just want to be friends and nothing more.
Oh well - someone out there may be waiting...Edward preferably! Oops, there I go again. Damn SM for giving me unrealistic opinions on men! _________________
That does get me angry at times. SM did give us readers unrealistic expectations of men. I'm sure she didn't mean to, but that's what happened to some of us.
I think it's pretty different from being reluctantly loveless and choosing being loveless. I don't know... I kind of have found peace within myself and whatever happens happens. I think everyone shouldn't chase after something they might regret in the end.
We don't need any other people in our lives if we are happy and true to what and who we are. Don't think of it as being "loveless" or "lonely".. think of it as being "carefree" and "alone"
and take note, being lonely and being alone are 2 very different things. Being lonely is wallowing in self-pity... being alone is inspiring (: _________________

No, no, no! Don't say things like that! Say "I'm TOO good to date." Sorry if this sounds cheesy, but if a guy can appreciate and date you the way you are then he's not worth it.
Jeez, Lexi. I really hope you get an Edward someday.

I agree with you 100%, Essa.
Thanks Molly (:
I hope that every nice and good girl gets their Edward some day. God knows we deserve them. (: _________________
