17-F Okay...I've never had a really good relationship before. All my friends and seem to have the perfect boyfriends and I can't even meet someone that I connect with. I feel like I'm never going to meet my special someone. I know that your suppoes to be happy with yourself until you can be completely happy with someone else...so I did that...I fixed everything I don't like about myself and really am happy with my life as it is...except not having my significant other...what can I do?

xyz answered Thursday July 15 2004, 11:51 am: First of all, be hopeful! And visualize who you want in your life, and how your life will be with that person. It has been my experience that, in some form or another, we always get what we want. But you must visualize it first. The rest will follow. It will materialize. Be patient, for these things can take a while. But you're happy with yourself in the meantime, so enjoy life to its fullest and keep developing your strengths!

kevin1986 answered Thursday July 15 2004, 3:27 am: Hey,join the club. I've never had a good relationship before either,so don't feel bad. Love is the hardest thing in the whole world to understand,even harder than math. What can you do? Well,nothing,I'm afraid. Mr.Right and I'm sure plenty of Mr.Wrongs will wander into your life very soon. But you have to give off good vibes. Go up and talk to the guy if you're interested. Smile a lot and act interested and eventually you'll hit the jackpot. I know you're thinking yeah yeah yeah,this is the same bullshit I've heard for years,but some of the most interesting guys don't come up and talk to you because they think they can't and won't impress you. I fight that a lot and I feel like when I make a compliment they just think I'm trying to get them in bed. So just be yourself really. It'd be nice if I followed my own advice.

MFS answered Thursday July 15 2004, 12:14 am: well, you're only 17... you have time on your side. It just might be that your current circle of friends doesn't contain someone that you feel romantically inclined towards, or vice versa.
Ask yourself why it is that you don't seem to connect... are you looking for the right things? It alwasy drives me nuts when people proclaim the crap about "opposites attract" because it isn't true - people are drawn towards others with similar interests, with similar values, goals, etc...
And don't worry about something starting with a bolt of lightning - the best relationships are the ones built on friendship and trust... too often, people create these overly and overtly romantic flings that just aren't able to sustain themselves. Perhaps, while you may feel left out, you're actually going about this in a more mature manner... just some food for thought. ;)
Oh... and don't worry about "finding someone"... let them find you... and make sure you aren't in love with the thought of being in love, because that will doom any relationships before they even start.
Good luck. [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]
