It's hard for a lot people, actually. It's not that easy to just go out your front door and find a three year relationship.

well, if its hard for you to find a boyfriend then you got problems. i went out and socialized, met this guy, dated several months later. boom. if you're an adult, your priorities should be starting a family of your own. Yeppet's mom obviously wants the best for her daughter. what if she wants grand kids. always respect your parents wishes and honor your parents. that's what i always have been taught :]]]] xo

Not everybody wants a family or even a relationship. And respecting your parents doesn't mean doing exactly what they want you to do with your own life.

#72... Wow. Just wow. I don't understand where you grew up or where you lived your life, but wanting things doesn't make it so. Just because you want a relationship with someone and connect with a multitude of people, doesn't mean it's that easy to foster a relationship. You just happened to get incredibly lucky to meet someone you clicked with without having to meet a lot of people. Most other people are not so lucky. Most people need to meet a lot of people to finally have the right chemistry with. Also, it's not a person's job to live up to mommy and daddy's wishes. Just because her mom may want her in a relationship, doesn't mean she should go get one. That's the most unintelligent thing to go do. You're affecting someone else's life by trying to enter in a relationship that you have no stake or feelings in just to make mommy happy.

That's great for you, but like others have said, it's not always that easy. I was completely single for five years (ages 15-20). It's not like I didn't socialize and get to know people, and I'm not scared of talking to guys (heck, several of my close friends are male). It's not even that I wasn't interested or couldn't find guys who were interested. But the guys I liked were never the ones who liked me, so dating just kind of didn't happen until right before I turned 21.

#72 you sound incredibly immature for a 22 year old. Firstly, not everyone wants to be in a relationship or start a family. As people have said, OP could be aromantic. Secondly, it's not easy for everyone to find a boyfriend because not everyone can find someone they connect with right away. I'm 19 and I have friends who have never dated anyone. There's nothing wrong with them, they just haven't connected with anyone on that level yet. So stop being so judgemental

Um, it's kind of common for husbands to start out as boyfriends.
