Hey everyone! I know the challenges we all face are different but as a single young professional sometimes I find myself really wishing I had a few more friends on here that were in the same circumstances....

Not to say I would reject a request from anyone! the more the merrier!

But none the less would love to get in touch with those who are facing the world of losing weight, dating, and working as an early careerist etc.

I log every day and love the community that MFP provides! Can't wait to hear from you!!!!

    i wish i had time to date!

    i've been on a few, and they've all been disasters. i'm also a bit of a workaholic (2 jobs, 60 hours a week, plus i'm a volunteer), so i've decided to just focus on me. if mr. right walks in, that's great. but i'm not looking for him...

    this is my time :)

    proud to be your single buddy :)

    I've gone on a few dates lately but honestly just have not prioritized it as worth my time... I've taken on a couple volunteer positions recently now that I don't work 3 jobs and go to school haha and I'm looking forward to traveling while still making sure I schedule 1-1 1/2 hrs each day for exercise... But I'm def learning to be happy with these choices!

    I was just thinking this last night!!! Who has time to date???? I think that some people think that I'm being selfish with my time right now, but for the first time I'm putting ME first to better myself. Yes, I'd like to date and find someone, but right now is about ME!

    PS Feel free to add me! :)

    Hi! I'm a 26 yr old professional in NYC. Trying to date, but finding it hard to wade through the fake people. I feel like this journey is going to give me confidence in myself, and hopefully will attract more positive people!

    Single and working. I've always put my professional goals above everything else, but as of late I've grown bored always being by myself. That's one reason I like MFP...so many people!

    Single and young professional too :) feel free to add! I'm in the same boat as many of you; I would love to date, but between working and working out and having an insane puppy at home, I'm not sure where I would squeeze time in for dating!

    Good morning everyone! Single, 30 year old marketing professional here. I have done some dating, but not much...had two pretty bad experiences with online dating last year, so am having a hard time getting back into it. Confidence is a major issue for me...I have tons of it in terms of my work life, but not so much in the rest of my life. I'd love more friends on here! I lost about 70 pounds in 2011...gained about half of it back last year...and am working on losing it for good in 2013. Feel free to add me...I am happy to offer support!

    Wee single Lynne here!! Dated a couple of guys over the past year ... and been messed about more than I'd care to admit, so I'm staying single for a while and just focusing on ME :)

    Feel free to add me, anyone, it's good to know that others are in the same position!
