    My friends have all been with someone or are with someone now. I've never even been asked out on a date in my life, im only 18 but still...I'm that single friend that everyone has one of. I mean guys look at me, but no luck ever getting asked out. I've given up on trying to get a date and am focusing more on myself and getting fit. Usually when I stop looking for something, it will find me anyways :P Still hoping to focus on myself this year!

    I fell in love (or the early stages of) and started planning a future with a man who is wonderful and everything I thought I might need or want in someone. But he broke up with me on Friday. Earlier today I finally got to hear some of the very personal and serious reasons why...and truly believe that when he says they are his issues and it isn't me he is telling the truth. Sometimes in life you get to do something remarkable and selfless for another person..and so I made an active choice to put the ego and hurt and disappointment aside and love him anyway, even if only as a friend. He is an amazing individual who has to sort out himself and his own happiness on his own..but I also appreciate the opportunity to show someone what non-judgmental and unconditional love can look like.

    So...as I hope for the future still, I think I will be single a while. This will take me time to get past and right now I don't want to get past it..though I am bad about distracting myself with others. So you never know.

    Ah, SB, that really sucks. You know we are all here to listen to you vent if you need it.

    Most likely. Who knows, after how crazy 2012 was in the love department, anything could happen and I wouldn't be surprised. I'm certainly open to a serious relationship, just has to be the right girl. My current options have no long term potential.

    Sorry to hear it SB. I totally know where you are coming from as I could have wrote almost this exact comment about 4 months ago.

    I fell in love, and she left to go back and work things out with her ex-husband. But we were both such special people for one another, that we couldn't think of going on without one another. So trying hard to keep the friends thing going, even through the pain that I still get.

    Best of luck to you. Not the way you wanted to start the new year I am sure.

    Nope, I plan to have at least 6 boyfriends this year and at least 250 dates. I also want to have at least 5 one night stands and 3 FWB. Just no marriage or babies- yet.

    You got it all figured out eh??
