Last week, a friend and I were talking about how we have never had boyfriends before, and it seems like the world just hates us. It’s fall again, and it seems like everyone is in a relationship at this time of the year (I don’t know why). When you aren't in a relationship, and everyone around you seems to be in one, it can be depressing.

But then you start to re-evaluate your life. When you haven’t even been on a date with a guy, and you’re 18-years-old (like me), it's something that can be hard to talk about with someone else. Also, when it seems like guys never notice you, it can be hard to talk about to your friends. But, honestly who cares? Who cares that I have never been in a relationship before? No, it’s not because I am awkward and I am scared to talk to guys. Trust me, I have talked to guys before but they do not want me to be a part of my life for the right reasons. I just haven’t found the right one yet. It’s been really hard to come to that realization — because I have started to ask myself: Is it because of the way I look or dress? Am I just a terrible person? Does the world just hate me?

No, the world doesn’t hate me, you, or anyone else. The time just isn’t here yet. The time will come, you just have to be patient. I know that waiting sucks, but when the time does come, you will be happy that you waited for someone. Don’t settle. Find someone who is perfect to you, and likes you for who you are.
