Dang! I wanted the 1000th! haha
Call her. Just a friendly call to see how she's doing if you are thinking about her. Maybe she needs that kind of pick me up anyway! If you fail, then thats okay too, but at least you know that the possibility has not completely passed you by. Good luck.
I wish somebody loved me back...
Dear 4-ch, please hear me out.
I have surveyed all my options (ALL of them), and the only girl I would ever want to date right now is taken, by my best friend. There's another girl who I wanted to date in the fall, but I realized that even if I got her to stop being afraid of guys, she'd be really high-maintenance. I have NO OPTIONS. A college that is 60% women, and ZERO of them are intelligent, friendly, and available.
Someone come rescue me. For Pete's sake. I want someone, anyone female, to go out on a date with me, and at least act like a possibility for a week or so. Really I just want to give someone a hug. Oh God.
60% female and none of them are availble? I think you need to change your sample.
First of all leave your best friend and his girl alone. If you care about this girl and if you are a good friends with the guy you will not even consider about ending it for your own personal gain.
Second, for get about getting a girl for the week. Study for your exams, just study so hard that you will forget about girls. No need to ruin your grade in an attempt to get a hug. If you have any female platonic, I am sure you can get a hug out of them, just don't go overboard.
Finally, just relax. You will never get a girl if you are desperate and needy like that. You need to set your life so that dating is like 5th on your list of priorities. If you do that, then I promise you things will work out better for you, especially in the long run.
on that note, I am going to be at a uni that 95% are guys.
wtf
You're looking for a girl to date, not to marry. Stop being so dismissively critical, which I think you're only going from initial impressions and assumptions.
> Finally, just relax.
Hey, this is the singles rant thread and I'm posting the sum of all my frustrations. It doesn't reflect how I am actually going about doing this. I was probably pretty needy when I first found this forum but I've backed off a bit and now I'm just pissed that there's nowhere for me to go.
>>407 is good advice though. I was talking to this selfsame best friend for six hours tonight (let it slip that I like his girlfriend, oops, but that was kind of a mutual understanding from the start) and he pointed out that your initial impression of someone is TOTALLY different from what you will learn about them when you actually get into a deep relationship. Being a virgin I didn't know that. Thanks best friend and thanks 4-ch.
haiz.....I wish a girl would like me instead of me liking em. Im getting so tired and bored of attempting to get a girl.
Even if the girl liked you, as a man you will be expected to make the first move.
sory for being a lame person T_T
Just be Anonymous, it's easier.
Well don't attempt to "get" a girl. That goes for all of us. I chuckle a bit every time I hear the expression. Like girls are some kind of resource or pokemons to be "gotten." They are people... like you and I. And like you and I, they do not want to be tied up with someone who is not able to be happy on their own.
Bored of trying? Well maybe putting some time into bettering yourself may be what you need. If thats not important to you, then I am gonna guess that you will be in this predicament for a loooooong time.
I used to be a clingy spineless child that believed that I needed a female for happiness, until I ended up dating a girl for two years who needed me for happiness, and guess what? It was good for awhile, but I had to break up with her when I started thinking of what it was doing to my sanity. A real relationship is too draining and cannot last unless you learn to love yourself and are with someone who does as well.
All I am trying to say is that if you are not happy with yourself when alone, you will never be happy with someone else and will have an extremely difficult time getting yourself into a relationship with a girl who has any self worth whatsoever.
Agree with the second sentence, disagree with the first. The purpose of dating is to get to know someone for the purpose of finding out whether you are compatable for marriage. Unless of course you are seeking immoral pleasure.
I agree with the common sense brought to light by Seraphius. As for its relevance, I am not sure, having read no other post in this thread. I will add that it is more about finding oneself first, which will lead to self-fulfillment, than just being happy. Once a man realizes who he is in this world, a proper relationship will ensue. Of course, according to my philosophy, this is inevitable, as a woman represents the physical manifestation of just that (realization). Therefore take heed and do not sow seed in a premature breed as they are the physical snare which clamps down on your potentially powerful destiny, the fates.
i finally met someone when i went on vacation, but i was only with him for two weeks, thats when he asked if i wanted to be his girl friend, but said i don't have to reply so soon, he lives in los angeles and i live in washington state, do you think long distances relationships work out, what should do???
>>417
I've been in a long distance relationship, and.. Well, it sort of worked, but on the other hand the distance was endlessly frustrating for both of us (especially since we were both broke college students, so visits were out of the question) and in the end it pretty much just fell apart. Suppose it depends if you're the sort of person who can pull it off, though.
it would be hard for me i'm also broke, and i'm going to start community college really soon too, so it would be hard to travel.
long distance relationships are a bad idea unless you're totally in love with the person and can picture yourself calling him nearly everyday and only seeing him a few times a year.
I remember him when i was leaving in california, for two and half years, there was this kid who use to walk and stand outside of my aunts apartments, that's where i was leaving with my family, but back to my story, when my mom was always cooking, she would send me outside to play and everytime i went outside i would turn around and there he would be looking at me, but when i went to California two weeks ago, i didn't think i could see, him it was like fate.
old wounds opened up
you think you've got things under control. over the person and all and when it's put to the test, you realize you are not over them at all.

I met a girl at a party tonight, I think she likes me, but God there's only ten days left before I go back home and I'm so so worried that nothing will happen or I'll try to rush her into it and get her scared.

Whats the best tip to ask a guy out?
>>432, I'd have to say I agree with >>432... Half the time the guy you want to ask out would love to be asked out, and as I guy, I can say that most of the time we're far more scared then you to show any interest, for fear of rejection... On behalf of all guys, just ask "do you want to go out sometime?" That's really all it takes, most of the time!
If I was a guy, I would think something was up if a girl asked me out.
I wouldn't think something was up, I'd be happy she seems interested in me! The only reason I'd think something was 'up' was if she was perhaps well-known already as a sleep-around or gold-digger or something already...
Personally, I'd be very suspicious if a girl asked me out. Normally, they won't even not give me the time of day -- that would be too kind. They can't even bear to be in the same room as me.
Ergo, if a girl approaches me for any reason, it seems fair to assume she's working some sort of angle.
438 is too cynical. Don't worry about people like him, you wouldn't want to go out with him anyway.
>438 is too cynical. Don't worry about people like him, you wouldn't want to go out with him anyway.
seconded.
It's true, though, buddy. Just because a few girls have been dicks to you doesn't mean every one is. And it's that sort of cynicism and suspicion that really turns off some really sincere ladies. If you're interested in dating, keep and open mind. Not everyone's gonna hurt you, baby.
at least you're not this guy
I would sort of ease up on it though. Most guys will not have any problem with it at all but they're a bit too easy. You don't want to seem "too" easy. And sometimes saying "We should hang out" might be a little too blunt. Go with what a lot of girls say "It might be interesting if we hung out sometime" or "If i don't anything better to do, then let's go out"
You don't always want to do what a guy WANTS you to do. You can still tease them. Teasing them makes it more enjoyable for both parties. Do make it completely obvious, let them guess, let them wonder, let them imagine. And don't worry about taking your time.
Sensible girl she is. >>432
Actually. I just saw >>432's pictures...
Better at this point in time to work on some weight loss and some physical fitness. There's no shame in wanting to look good and to have boys come to you afterwards. No offense. You'll feel a lot better after a nice makeover and some weight loss.
Turkey + Lettuce + Water = Great Diet.
Good luck
>>445 I'm losing weight, and the pictures you saw, are old, their a year old, i'm way thinner now.
I've been going out lately on alot of dates since i've gotten back from california, it's like the universe has gone upside down for me, my friends think it's my look, but i think my social skills have changed? I really don't know, it's so weird, but all of the guys are really kind and cute.
>>445
Ouch.
I mean, she's not exactly overweight.
Although, I guess if she does/did get into shape, you can tell she has a lot of potential.
>>432
I'm kind of in your shoes. Except instead of losing weight, I changed my hair and look. I pretty much got an immediate reaction and started turning heads. It's nice, the new confidence I have, but also slightly uncomfortable with the new attention.
Just as a piece of advice from a girl in the same boat, I think you should keep a level head amongst all this change. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for you, but it sounds as though you're a little overwhelmed and carried away with the new attention you're getting.
>>448
Keep a Level head, but at the same time, BASK!! BASK IN THE GLORY OF HUMAN VALIDATION. Because when you bask in it, it tends to attract more people.
Positive Attitude = Sexy + Cute + Beautiful.
MONSTER COMBO!~!~!
No guys ever used to pay attention to me. Then I finally met a guy, and we dated for a few months. Ever since we broke up many guys have all been jumping through hoops to be my...
friends. That's it. Friends. All of a sudden I have like 20 really good guy-friends who have no romantic interest in me whatsoever. Crap.
I'm not taking over advantage, we hang out and go out to concerts, but other than that it's just that, Alot of the guys tell me it's whats in the inside that counts not the outside, when i heard those words it sounded really nice, I guess there are still gentlemen in this world.
If the guys are jumping through hoops to be your friend, then they have romantic interest. They are just too scared to ask you out.
>>450
joking ask each one of them if they want to go out with you and look at their reaction.
>>450
Most if not all of them want to go out with you, but they missed any signals you might have sent or they don't want to risk scaring you off.
>>450 Seriously, the only reason they don't seem to have romantic interest is because they're literally terrified to show interest only to be shot down and then feel really awkward & creeped out around you in the future for having ever asked...
If you asked one of them to go out with you sometime, I mean, seriously asked them, I can almost guarantee you'll get a reaction, as their face lights up, and their fear goes away, at finally being able to see that you're not going to shoot them down or treat them like a creep for asking!
(That's single guys' worst fear, in my opinion... We try to be friends, but we're afraid to take that final step in saying something, for fear of now being regarded forevermore as a creep!)
I came back from college and I didn't manage to ask anyone out. I came close, but only when I was drunk-- when I became sober, I was extremely awkward. It made me feel horrible.
Now I'm back in this room where I spent four years jacking off. I'm already forgetting what my female friends looked like. I feel like I failed somehow.
>>457
I feel like I failed somehow, too, in the very same way. I still have something like 2 weeks though. Maybe then...
Hehe, like I believe that.
I'm single and too lazy to read the whole thread. can anyone give me a summary?

Ok my question is.. How in the hell would a asian guy get a white female in a majority white population?!
It's impossible >.< because I'm an asian guy with interest in white females :/ but, yet it feels like none of them are attracted to me and/or I don't know how to approach them. Hell, what's even sadder is that I am able to approach middle age or old ladies and have a conversation with them.. yet, I have a hard time forming a sentence with a attractive girl :/
>>462
You sound like a fob.
Piece of advice: Stay away from white girls if you don't know how to handle them. Seriously, most of the ones who seem like they show interest in you will use you for what it's worth and then dump you like there's no tomorrow. You'll go in with a full wallet and heart intact, and come out with an empty and broken one. Also, fobs seem to be notoriously dense at reading signals. They don't seem to understand that even if a white girl outrageously flirts with them, they only think of you as a "friend". Some of them don't mean it, but most do it for the sake of it. It's in their nature.
So how did bruce lee get one? Not enough chinese to go around back then in the states ?
There seem tobe more asian girl with white guys then asian guys with white girls.
He got one by being totally sweet.
>>462
i like asian guys, you should call me.
i mean, you'd have to find out my number and everything, but it's worth a shot.
I just met this girl I had a crush on 5 years ago. I thought I was over her, but when I saw her again, a whole wave of feelings literally rushed back and smacked me in the face. But I dunno if I should call her. I feel like these are just old feelings just messing with my mind, but then again by gauging the events of the night, I may have been given a second chance.
She is transferring to my college, she is rooming in my sister’s old roommate and of course she is prettier than ever. But she may have a boyfriend but I am not 100% sure.
I feel like I have a second chance, but I also feel like that someone just wants to see me suffer..
I could use some help, really.
do it
it is incredibly scary
but god when it turns out exactly how you imagined it
things can't get any better
you have nothing to lose, go for it.
It is not the fact that I am afraid of calling her, well I am a little, but will it be waste of my time to pursue this? Can I expect anything to really happen from this?
Alright I gave her a call a few hours ago.
For clarification let me add a quick backstory:
My sister and one of her roommates, Hannah, were graduating from college (we all go to the same school). My sister decided to hire my band to play at the party because she wanted some good CHEAP entertainment. We played a few acoustic sets at local coffee shops and played two full shows at local clubs. We mainly play for fun but we don't mind the money we get from the shows. While playing our second or third song I saw her walk by the band and we made obvious eye contact. She smiled and waved, while I nodded and lost the beat for a second (I play drums and bass during the acoustic sets). We played two sets the first 45 minutes, the second 30 minutes set with a 15 minute break between the two. During the break, that is when we got to talking. She told me about how she is transferring to my college and is rooming with her friend from high school, who happens to be the sister of Hannah who also stayed with them in the apartment. She moved from my town and moved to Hannah's befriend her and her sister. I thought life couldn't get any better, but then this guy Greg shows up and she introduces him as her friend. I noticed the entire night Greg would hover around her but never touched unless they bumped into each other. We finished playing the second set and everything went well. As an encore we played some songs from our acoustic set for a small group of people left, she and Greg were among them. I was able to use my singing voice for "Under the Bridge" by RHCP. After that we packed up and left, and we exchanged numbers as I headed out the door.
When I called her, she told went on for like 5 minutes how good we were (she is a real chatterbox). We talked about old times and what happened after she moved away. She told me how she is moving in this Wednesday so she can start summer classes next week. I asked her if she wants to get lunch then and she happily accepted.
I guess things are going well, but I am still not sure about Greg. I still think that they are dating, but they show no signs of it, and she did introduce him as her friend. Aside from that I guess things are going well. I will let you know how Wednesday turns out.
oh jesus
she introduced him as a friend.
they didn't touch at all.
she HAPPILY ACCEPTED lunch
MAKE YOUR MOVE
GO FOR IT
GOOD THINGS ARE HEADED IN YOUR DIRECTION
(i'm so excited)
>>472 whoa, why all the paranoia? The point is, they are not dating and if they are, they are (which is impossible) awfully cold to each other.
Greg might be stuck in the friend zone. either way go for it!
467> it's been 2 days since u've called her. any updates?
Cuuuute
Today was one of the greatest days of my life.
Sounds like someone has a new story to tell. Go ahead and tell it, we are ready to defend against shelling.
>>478
We want details, you bastard!
yeah details would be good!
Sorry for the lack of updates, I have been busy with life
The night before I decided to go to sleep early so I could get a good night’s rest. However, I was so nervous that I couldn’t sleep until very late or very early, depending on your perspective. Since I was so tired, I over slept and have a few minutes to get ready for work. I quickly showered, brush, didn’t have time to shave, and ran out the door to grab the bus to the lab where I work. But since I was behind schedule, I just missed the bus. And I forgot to mention, it was raining. After waiting 10 minutes for another bus, I got to the lab finding out that there is a contaminant in the HPLC. After about 4 hours of cleaning the machine, I was finally able to go to lunch.
I met up with her at a pizza shop on the main street of campus. It is small place that has an indie/college vibe to it, but is the best place to get pizza on campus. I showed up about 5 minutes late and was already seated. She looked a bit anxious, probably worried if she was in the wrong place. As soon as she saw me, her face lit up and she greeted with a smile and witty remark on how I should tell time.
For about the first 5 minutes we talked about the generic, boring stuff, like how her day has been, what is good to order, if she is enjoying her new apartment and if she needed any help. Soon, we were talking about old times, friends and places. She was a little shocked about how some of our old mutual friends have changed in the course of 5 years while others are virtually the same. We then talked about what happened after she left. She went on how she went to her new school and did not know a single person. The first person she met was one of her, I guess current roommates, and they met because she asked her where 1 classroom was and she happened to be in the same class at the same time. But one thing I find remarkable about her is that she is very nice, friendly, just amazing personality. And by talking to her, even it is for like 5 minutes, is that she can turn the worse day in the world in to the best. She went on how she soon became very active socially in high school, making a lot of friends, working on the yearbook and newspaper, as well as being very active around her community by volunteering and such. She also explained why she transferred. She wants to psychology and our school’s psychology program is one of the best in the state. She is also pre-med and we do have a nice medical school for her to look at.
Then she asked me what I did after she left. I was hesitant at first; I mean do I really want to admit was Captain of our Science Olympiad and Academic Decathlon teams? After her persuasion, though, I did tell her about those activities. She was delightfully impressed about it though but was curious to know how I can be a nerd-musician. She knew I played the drums; I started before I met her. I explained that I picked up the bass junior year of high school and I have been playing the guitar for about a year. I told her I no where near a master in all of those instruments and I only play as a hobby and the occasionally rent money. But again she was delightfully impressed by my talents. I felt uncomfortable about the attention being focused on me, so I switched the conversation back to her.
When the check came, I didn’t realize that the waitress didn’t split it and I paid it with my credit card, and essentially paying for the both of us. She objected to my paying, and (jokingly) complained it is the 2007 and how women are capable of paying for there on food. Rather than accept her money or allow her to pay if we went out again, I told her to think about it as a house-warming present. We left the restaurant a little more than a hour since I got there. We stood in front on the sidewalk making our awkward goodbyes and she asked if we can do it again sometime. I told her next Tuesday, there is a nicer place down the street where we can eat, but they are more of a dinner place than lunch. She said it would be fine and she can pay for her own meal, unless it is too expensive then I can handle the bill :-). I wanted to hug her or something, but I was too scared to make a move, so I just said bye and headed back to work.
oh god so cute.
i am happy. look how good this is turning out.
you guys have a dinner date now!
aaaah!
good luck!
(i can't wait til tuesday.)
sounds promising. good luck and dont forget to give an update after tues!
Quick update:
Saturday, a bunch of my high school friends "kidnapped" and took me to the beach this weekend. It was good to spend time with old friends.
Dinner is tomorrow, I told her to meet me there around 7:30. I have a fair idea what I am going to talk about, but I still feel like I am storming a Omaha beach with an empty gun. So I would gladly take any advice.
oh man I can't wait for the next update! 467 is making me believe in love again! ~_~
Where are you eating? What are you wearing? Tell meee~ !
>>486
We want the Details!
Sorry for the lack of an update, I was going to update as soon as I got back, but my laptop decided not to work. So I am now stuck to using a public computer until I get mine fixed.
Tuesday started amazing but I say it ended badly. Work was slow and it was easy for me to leave early. I left work around 4 and went back home and decided to go a run. I was really nervous and I had to work out some excess energy out of me. So around 6 I started to get ready. Showered, shaved, and put some cologne on. I am not a cologne person but my roommate insisted. Polo Black what it was called and I must admit, it wasn't that bad. I wore stripped collared shirt and some dark jeans with black shoes. I drove by her place around 7, (actually 7:07, I left a little late), knocked on her door and she opened it with a yellow and black top, kind of swirling together, with a black skirt. My first reaction was DAMN, but I greeted her with a studdered hello.
The resturant was about a 5 minute drive from her place, not too far and it is really nice and the price isn't too bad either. At first we talked about each other's weekend. She just stayed in town, went shopping with her roommate, watched a movie and basically just explored town. I told her about my impromptu beach trip and she was excited that I was naming names she once knew. After that we just had a crazy conversation with the topic changing like 15 times and we some how found a transition between all of them. I believe we started out how I attempted to surf and ended up talking about Van Goegh. And in between we would toss in a joke, like how I showed her what I did at work with bread and oil. I showed her "Plate Chromotography." Obviously she is not as nerdy as me to get the joke, but she laughed at my attempt and just general silliness of the situation (that was the worse of them, I am not that bad at telling jokes).
We were at the resturant a good 3 hours before we realize it may be time to leave. About 30 minutes later we actually decided to leave. Time just flew by, I cannot even still imagine that we were there for that long.
I was deciding to take her to get some ice cream but since it was past 11, I decided to take her home. And here when things got bad. As I was walking up her up to her door, I was debating with myself if I should kiss her goodnight and both sides had really convincing arguements. When we reached her door, the tension in the air skyrocketed. She told me that she is having a house warming/ birthday party for her roommate Mona and that I should come. I told her I have to think about it since I am going home home to spend 4th of July with my family and that I am leaving Sunday. She said that is fine but I should try to come even just for a little bit. At that point it became deafly quiet with only the slight sound of traffic and crickets muffled in the background. We were both staring at each other, it was like nothing else except for us exisited. I leaned in slightly and with my lips, I whispered "goodnight."
I think a sailor would be upset at the amount of swearing I shouted out on my drive back to my house. I told my roommate about what happend and got my laptop and then it broke. I dropped the biggest F-bomb to hit North America. I am still a bit upset but I calm down a bit. My roommate told me that I should have kissed her, but it is no loss just so long as I do it on our next date. He also told me something really surprising: he has a crush on Mona. They are friends, not good friends, but they will hang out on occasion. I told him about the party and he insisted that WE should go. (I was going to ask y'all if I should go, but I guess I figured that out).
Wednesday, I told everyone in my lab and they said I should have kissed her. The bass player in my band called and told me I should have kissed her, I swear, everyone and there mother told them I should have kissed her.
But next time I will see her is Saturday and then I will be gone for the week. I was thinking, at the party I would ask her out for date for next Saturday, when I get back. Set it up where the mood is right and then kiss her. Or should, if I get the chance, kiss her at the party?
Oh she also just called me too. Asking about the party situation. I told her, my roommate and I will stop by for a bit, but I cannot stay for long because I have to drive in the morning. She doesn't sound upset, so I guess I am safe. But I cannot allow a mess up like that happen again.
betcha she was very disappointed, but definitely kiss her at e party when u get the chance!
Just want to give a quick update. The party is tonight, supposely it is going to be around 20 people and suppose to be pretty chill. If I get the chance, I will kiss her but I cannot make any promises I can get her alone. My roommate is coming to "spit his game" with Mona, but also to run interference with the party go-ers so we have a little bit of privacy
Tomorrow I am heading for home for the week to celebrate the 4th with my family. It has been 25 years since my parents moved to the US so they want to do something special. A lot of family, a lot of food, and a lot of fun. I should be back next Saturday. So you have to wait at least a week to see if I got a kiss or not (no internet at my parent's place, sorry).
Have a good week all, and Happy 4th of July.
For a rant thread, there aren't that many rants by singles lately...
Well, I've got nothing to do on the 4th of July. I wanted to at least watch some fireworks, but I have no idea if there'll be any in my town, or if it'll be in the next town over, which I won't be able to get to due to lack of transportation.
It's depressing, really. I don't have anyone who'd go with me anyway, as my friend who I've usually hung around with on Independance Day has a boyfriend now, so she's probably going to some resturaunt with him. My other friend lives a little too far for me to go there, and her family's having a barbeque that day, so she can't come here. I'd go to NYC to see fireworks(trains go there every hour from where I live, even in the middle of the night, and the train station's within walking distance from where I live), but I'd rather not go there by myself. Even my family lacks motivation to do anything. My parents are moving to a new house soon, so they're too busy packing things to think about doing anything on the 4th.
My motivation to enjoy life's slowly draining away. I need to save my money, so I can't spend it on anything this summer. I'd like to do a lot of things, like go to the beach once, go to an amusement park, visit NYC, meet up with some old friends, but as the weeks go by at my summer job, I come home too tired to do anything. All I do is eat, work, watch anime, and sleep. I wish I could do something more productive this summer. Really, you're only young once. I'd like to have fond memories of my youth when I grow old, but if things keep going as they are, I'm just going to grow old regretting being alive at all, because I never really did anything special.
I guess I'm just antsy. I'm gonna try and call up some old friends of mine tomorrow, maybe, just to get out of this lifeless slump I'm in.
Why not, I'll join in on a good rant... I'm 26 and still being in the same boat of feeling like you're only young once... And I just about 3 weeks ago broke up with the first person I've really cared about, but who was just toying with having a relationship, and didn't really want one... Right before my company 4th of July picnic at a nearby amusement park/waterpark, which I'd planned on taking her to (and at the time, she'd said she'd love to go)...
Now I've basically got no reason to go to the picnic, but yet I'm on the volunteer planning committee for the picnic, so I have to go... Which makes for a wonderful day of sitting alone watching everyone else and their significant others and/or families having fun with each other at the park... Like I don't already get enough of seeing people holding hands & everything in public constantly at every store & place I go...
I planned on watching some 4th of July fireworks as well, but I just have no drive right now for much of anything... No real reason to be interested... I've got a convention with some friends coming up, and did hang out with a friend last night that I haven't seen in a couple weeks, but I still feel really down... I just feel like there's no point in doing much of anything lately...
(As this is a singles rant thread, at least it's only the 4th of July, not Valentines Day... My most loathed of all holidays... All that makes me think of is how, when in Elementary School, teachers made every child make boxes to hold valentines cards, and how every child bought valentines for every other child in the class, but when Jr. High and beyond came along... People realized they no longer had to, and that's when if you weren't popular or liked, you never got anything again... You were the one who had to put up with watching everyone else find roses in their lockers all around you & things like that... At least on the 4th of July, the fireworks aren't near as bad of something to sit out alone;
well fireworks would be very romantic for couples, but it's also nice to watch it with friends.

You're actually a lot luckier than you give yourself credit for. Sure your significant other's now your ex, but now more than ever you've gotta count your blessings. After all, unlike me, you've still got the chance to hang around other people and socialize on the 4th. It might not be Valentine's Day, but it's still depressing to spend any holiday by yourself. Enjoy your company picnic to the best of your ability, okay? Have fun with your co-workers, and stay positive. If not for yourself, for all those people who don't have anyplace to go that day.
I know what you mean about being annoyed with people holding hands and whatnot. My best friend invited me to hang out with her college friends(we go to different colleges) and her boyfriend for her birthday, and it was the worst day I ever had. There were five people including me. There was my best friend, her boyfriend, and another couple. It felt like I was intruding on a double date the entire time. My friend wasn't very considerate at all; she kept kissing and hugging her boyfriend. After mini-golfing for a while, we went to her boyfriend's house for cake, and they just rolled all over his basement floor making out the entire time, for hours upon hours. I sware, people have no modesty these days! It's like they were practically about to have sex in front of me. I don't mind kissing or holding hands, but please, there's a limit!
Don't get me wrong, I love my friend to bits, but she gets on my nerves sometimes. The thing is, though, we've been friends since we were kids, so even though I hate how much she loves her public displays of affection, I want to support her, because it's her first relationship, and your first relationship is the one you always remember. Whether it was good or bad, you'll always remember it.
i know how you feel...each and everyday, everywhere..all the time i only see ppl holding hands, together hugging kissing...and i pity you, it's bad enough ppl that you don't know, but your case...oh god...it's going to turn ur mind around.but still live on and stay strong.good luck
