dealing with single-ness, ..when all ur friends hav a bf/gf Options

[Eternally_L0st]

i dunno why but lately i've been feeling realli awkward about being around couples.

like today, i went to great america with my friends. n it ended up as 7 of us going. 4 girls n 3 guys. n those 3 guys n 3 grls r couples. so me, being the 4th grl, was alone. n it felt realli bad. esp when one couple kept making out every chance they get, even if it was a foot away from my face! i wanted to yell, get an effin' room! today was supposed to be a good day. one of my friends (that was there) is graduating n this is one of the last chances we'll get to hang out. so i tried to be happy, but i couldnt even ACT happy. i was just upset n i felt.. empty?

im tired of being single. n i dunno how to deal with it. help?

Like other people said, talk to your friends if its really bothering you. They invite you along because they want to hang out with all their friends, their boyfriends and you too, and probably don't realize how they are hurting you. Remember that it makes it hard on them if they have to split up their time between boy friend time and girl friend time, and they can't hang out with everyone together. But tell them that it bothers you when they are kissing all the time around you. They should have time alone to do that.

To help with boredom/lonliness, go out and do things related to your interests. Conventions, seminars, clubs, teams, lectures even, hang out in places you like and meet some new people and just go out to meet new friends. You never know, you might even find someone while your enjoying your favourite things to do. Definately though, don't focus on finding that perfect someone - you won't know until you've talked to them and become friends anyways. So go out, relax and enjoy the opportunity to meet new people.
