So you're 21-22 and college is nearing an end. And gosh, you're still single. If you plan it out right... You can meet the perfect guy by homecoming, and with your insane amount of charm, years of mastering being good at everything -- and obviously being the perfect girlfriend -- you'll have the ring-by-spring. Sounds perfect right? Too bad the perfect guy (most likely) isn't going to fall into your life by homecoming.
Don't lose hope, though. He is alive and out there waiting for you. So what if you graduate college and the only people cheering for you is your family and your sorority sisters? Who cares if you don't get to do a candlelight and have all 100 plus sisters "Ohhhh" and "Ahhhhh" over your honker of a rock your now-fiance will be paying off for eight years? You're living your life, on your terms, and in God's timing. So roll down all your Windows, sing that rap song like your the real Juicy J, and enjoy the single life. Stop looking for the perfect guy.
Be friendly to everyone you meet, give hugs, drunkenly make out with a guy every now and then (cause why not) and live your 20s out. There's no rule that says you have to be in a relationship by 22.
But you're saying, wow so inspiring, girl who I don't know that is writing this article, "But my friends are all lovey-dovey and it makes me sad."
Okay, ask yourself this: that guy from the bar that seemed decent enough to take home, maybe be a snuggle buddy when you're lonely ... He's temporary, right? Because the perfect guy is going to respect the heck out of you and want more than the occasional snuggle/make out. He will be you at 14 when the hottest guy in school said he liked you and you started dating and it turned into the most awesome, magical, 110 percent best week of your life -- except this one will be forever. So stop wasting your time on the temporary guys.
And if you want an occasional make out buddy, you let him know with, "Hey, look here mister. I'm living my life ... I don't need you but you're a good kisser and obviously I am too so that's how it's gonna be."
Mr. Right is going to pop up one day like those Facebook game requests you usually ignore, but this one will keep trying. He will put himself in your life. So in the meantime, sit back -- binge-watch "Friends", drink lots of wine, take those super cute fake laughing pics with your BFFs and live out your single life. Remember, in five years you may have to live with a boy for the rest of your life...
