I don't usually object to being single, in fact its sort of good, responsibility is cut in two pretty much. However, there is one thing wrong with me. I can talk to any man, hell, even men I don't like or whatever, I'll even have a scrap with two men at the same time... but, put a girl in front of me and say speak. And I struggle, its like I don't know what to do.
I have no luck at all with the girls. All the girls I've ever fancied either don't want to know, or, already have a boyfriend. Anyways, this is not me having a whine. But, I think if you are single nowadays you are a rarity. I could be wrong but, seems like everywhere you go you see couples. I have to confess I'm beginning to change my views now, and I think I would love to have a girlfriend.

Hi Mikey
I remember a long while back (remember I'm 50 now) in those heady days of being young enough to experience a youthful hectic daily life. It was sometimes hard to keep all them balls in the air at the same time ie: drinking with the guys, hobbies, courting etc.
You know what ? Every time you had to give something up or sacrifice one priority for another.....What do you think was dropped ?
Courting....and what did I invariably start thinking for a while after ?
"I'll never find another girlfriend, I'll die old and lonely" yada yada yada
The plus side would be nights out with the guys on the drink and plenty of 'useless' advice...."There's plenty more fish in the sea"......"Your too young to be tied down"...."Come on out with us and we'll get blasted together"
There is always someone out there for everyone. Hell!! there's probably dozens of young women living in close proximity to you thinking similar thoughts.
If you are mindful to enter into a relationship it will happen as soon as you bump into your 'soul mate', believe me. I speak from personal experience.
There are too many women out there for there not to be a close match for you.
One of the secrets is.......don't rush in and make a mistake that could scar you for a long time. Be patient, choose carefully and enjoy the experience.
Most importantly of all........enjoy yourself in the meantime.
Good luck young sir.
All the best for the future
