View Full Version : I don't know?

You know sometimes you feel like you really want to date someone, because it's nice to have a boyfriend/girlfriend. I feel like that sometimes. And you'd think that I'd jump on the first opportunity to date someone.. if there was someone to date.
Right now there's 3 guys who want to date me. And you know what? I think about how nice it'd be to date one of them, but I just can't make myself date any of them somehow. My best friend is really trying to hook me up with one of them because they're good friends, and I think he'd be an awesome boyfriend, but I just can't. I don't even know what's stopping me. This time all three guys are friends of mine (because I'd never date anyone I don't know/am not friends with), and they're all super nice, so there's really nothing to worry about.
I feel like I'll always be single because whenever I have the chance to date someone, I just don't do it. I wonder what the hell keeps holding me back all the time. And sometimes I think that maybe I should just take a chance and date someone anyway.. but what's the point of I'm not 100% sure about it?
I don't even know what the point of starting this thread is. I guess I wonder if anyone feels the same way or went through something like this before.

I always feel like I'm meeting all the wrong girls and thus haven't asked anyone out in 3 years.

...and here I thought you were a guy.
Was that directed at me?

You sound like this girl who i asked out after we'd been practically going out anyway, but when i finally asked her out properly she said she didn't want a boyfriend at the moment, but wanted things to carry on as they are. I haven't seen her in weeks (due to the school holidays and stuff) and we arranged for me to go to her house but that didn't happen and now we've put it off till she gets back from Romania, in two weeks. But before she went i rang her and she sounded like she wants to cool things off, which is gay.
But anyway, i think there is no point in going out unless you're 100% certain you want to go out with one of these guys. But if you know you want to, just go for it. You don't wanna be regretting stuff later on.
Sorry, Eda. That advice was extremely general and unhelpful.

im in the exact opposite situation
i've been with my girlfriend for a year and a half and i have been contemplating breaking up. i really dont know what to do...i can stay with her, then possibly hurt her again, and then lose her, or i can end it now, and know im making a mistake...
this really sucks
oh yeah, i have no advise to give
sorry
(note, hurt is used emotionally, not physically)

hmmm.... do you guys think I should date him? I realize that if I'm questioning it, I probably shouldn't do it.. but whatever. maybe I should put up a poll...
but hmm yeah.. I don't know. I'm confused.. whatever.

As you've said, if you're asking those on a message board who you should date, then you shouldn't be dating. Besides, being single isn't bad, as it allows you time to play the field, or be a whore as it is considered in some circles.

i'd say at least go on a date with one of them. no one i asking you to marry them, and who knows what you might get yourself into!! :) you really can't keep on pushing guys away because most of the time you have no idea what you might be missing out on.
btw - i should take my own advice... :S
well, have just thought and i'm going to take my own advice. you see, i'm pretty much the same as you, Eda. i reject them all pretty much. but the next decent guy that asks me or hits on me, i'll take out, at least once.
at least this is the plan... ;)

like we talked about, your sweet, gorgeous and have great musical taste.
what i've always looked for in a girl.
just get out of the high school atmosphere and your town, and tell guys you meet that you want to be friends first. it will at least narrow it down to guys you can trust. then, decide what you want to do. you should have no problem finding a guy tho.

that is what I do. as I said, I don't date anyone I don't know. and because I tell them I want to be friends first... they have all left. and that is exactly why I do that.. to see what their real intentions are, I guess.
just go on a date with one of em, it's not a big deal... if you're not interested after, say it

You're pretty much never going to be 100% sure about anyone. You can find/make up doubts with any person. You're just going to have to take a chance sometime.
yeah that's what I've come to realize, which is why I want to take a chance this time. if it doesn't work out.. then it doesn't, I guess.

I definitely hear you on the being friends thing first. That is key.
And my advice is don't let your friend pressure you into dating someone. It rarely ends well. And the akwardness after the break up will be multiplied. I let myself get pushed into dating someone, we did not make a good couple, and broke up a month later. Then it was really akward whenever we bumped into eachother, which happens alot.

Now i've thought a bit more i'd say go with what's been said - make friends, get out of the high school environment. it'll all happen in good time, won't it? i don't talk much to guys who i know like me when i don't like them back - i'm afraid of 'giving them ideas'. hehe. i don't want to lead them on anymore than the next person.

you don't know how rewarding being in a situation like yours is for some people. take advantage, and if it doesnt work, you don't lose anything.

dude, you're never sure about going out with anyoe when they first ask you out. If you have any sorta crush on any of em, then go out with them. Coz no one is ever sure about some who likes them until you get to know them as a boyfriend/girlfriend. The guy i've been going out with for 9 and a bit months now, kept asking me out for liek a month and i wasn't sure that i liked him. Then i just took a chance and it sorta cliked. So take a chance with one of em. And if that doesn't work then go out with another. I no that sounds sorta playerish, but seriously if your not sure bout it then take it slowly. Something that always helps me is imagining them going out with my bestie. try that.

Never take dating advice from someone with Funeral For A Friend in their sig, and a song title of The Used as their member title, as their methods of getting partners consists of passing off the lyrics of those bands as poems they've written, and it ultimately ends up in failure for them.

i wouldn't even listen to someone who sounds like they've just read Dolly from cover to cover. Just do what feels right to you, Eda. You're not stupid, trust yourself.
