Just like many of you, I'm really frustrated as well. I'm 18 and have never had a girlfriend. It sucks, knowing that ALL (and I mean all) of your friends have at least been on one date and all you have ever had is lonliness. When my friends asked me if I had a special someone for Valentines day they were thoroughly suprised to find out that I've never even come close to having anyone! But of course I figure if I haven't had any experience at all by this age, I should just pretty much accept the fact that loneliness and isolation are the conditions of my life, no matter how hard I work or how kind I am, I will always be alone. I think I am an involuntary celebate. It's either that or I'm ugly (which I'm not), out of shape (which I'm the far opposite of), or a big loudmouth jerk (which I would shoot myself if I were). I have plenty more to get off my chest but this will do for now :evil: .
