I shouldn't be lumped in with paired-off people who have no idea about being single. Yeah sometimes you'd like someone to snuggle up with, but mostly it's boss, and it makes you choosy. It doesn't make you choosy about dates in general, hell I'm anyone's after a few G&Ts, but it makes you know what you want when you properly get with someone.

What I mean is, if being single is what you want, then no one can stop you. If being in a relationship is what you want, then it requires others.

But allowing the sight of happy paired-off people to depress you is not a good place to be. Nor will it find you someone ace any sooner.
I'm not putting you in that bracket. I'm not criticising anyone who's actively looking, I'm just saying certain approches to it will eat you up and make you not pleasant to go out with.

and hopefully you're right. I don't think I give off desperate vibes

Nah', neither of you gave me that impression at all... much to Supermatt's disapointment ,)

And I didn't mean desperate either.
I mean that little disappointment you get when someone else pairs off. Leave em to it. Your time will come or not. In the meantime, be happy as Larry. No matter who you end up with, YOU have to be happy as you. You're not 'failing' by being single. They're not 'succeeding'.
