They are all wearing rings

[frd150]

This has been bugging me for a while. Chalk it up to me going thru the post break up-was going to marry her,Im at that age where all the good ones seem to be taken,i thought I was done looking syndrome.

 

Everytime I see or meet a cute nice girl they all seem to have the ring on their finger. It seems like all of the 25-30 year olds are spoken for and the only ones that are left are the trashy types.

 

Mann I hate this.

 

I just want to meet a nice girl, Im done messing around.

 

Anyone relate?

Though it's not the whole marriage thing. Every time that I've met a cool girl at my school, they're snatched up by someone (as well as not interested). In fact, the girl I like didn't have a boyfriend until I was about to ask her out!! AAAUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! SO #$%^ING FRUSTRATING! I don't think I can help you though, since I need help myself, but we're in the same boat I guess.........

I can relate 115%!!!

First of all be GLAD that you are not a girl. At least you don't have a biological clock to worry about and worry that you may be stuck with some prune eggs that no guy will want because you can't give him a child ever. I can't emphasize that enough and don't think men understand how lucky they are to not have to rush and find someone to marry and all if they want to have children. Where as it is so hard for women.

 

Everyone in my circle is also married with rings flashing. Most people I see are also married. I am 26 yrs old now now. Have been single for 10months or so now. It sucks I am also going through a post breakup mess and thought the man I was with was actually going to provide me with all those fake lines he once said to me about getting married and so on. Now, at 26 I feel completely hopeless, I feel really old, and it seems like ever many I run into only wants to mess around or isn't looking for a relationship. I just wish I could meet a decent man aorund my age group or even a little bit older that isn't just looking for some short term fling. The pool is very unfortunate filled with losers who are not done being "21," still partying, drinking, messing around, fear of commitment and so on.

 

Again, you shouldn't rush into anything or give up, especially because your a guy, you have no ticking time going on. I have already lost all hope and besides the proces of even meeting someone, getting to know them, falling in love to getting a ring takes so long, heck who knows, I'll probably be in my late thrities by then with some dry useless eggs.

 

The good ones are taken and the number of good ones left without rings on their fingers are VERY VERY hard to find. You don't want to settle for someone,just to get a ring ont he finger, especially with the divorce rate so high, be selective and don't settle for less! I wish you luck!

Be sure to give people a fair chance though. Especially when you're coming off a breakup where you have latent feelings, nobody seems good enough. It's easy to quickly judge new people because we're still holding on to an ex.

[frd150]

Kidney guy- I feel the frustration too.

 

Hrtbroken- I got a really bad visual dealing with old dried up eggs. Man, your so young. No need to loose hope. I know plenty of people having kids in there thirties. I really just want to meet a nice girl i guess. Marrige will come when the time is right.

 

Irish- Yeah and the new person will sence that you are still hanging on to the ex.

 

 

Last night my roomate and I talked about this. He basically said just to not worry about it so much. Things will happen when you least expect them to.

hrtbroken99, Oh my god! You're so old! Cheer up. I'm a 36 year-old guy and still single. Yeah, I know, I'm a guy but... what do you see yourself as, a woman or a baby factory? I'm not knocking raising a family, but why do people see that as the major goal in their lives? Hell, cockroaches and rats can reproduce right? Big deal. Besides, you can safely have kids until you're 45. Don't buy into that crap that you "have to get married by 28 or 30" bs.

He basically said just to not worry about it so much. Things will happen when you least expect them to.

 

I don't know about you but this advice always used to frustrate me. After you recover from your previous breakup, and definitely take some time to yourself, get involved in some activities or clubs where single women are. Try online dating. There are a lot of single women out there that aren't trash wondering where the single men are that don't just want a fling.

 

And hrtbroken99, 26 is still fairly young. Just because your friends have beaten you to the alter doesn't mean you'll never find someone that makes you happy. You can also have children well into your thirties and have them be happy, healthy and sometimes better provided for. Don't let an artificial time-clock define your happiness.
