Are you afraid to talk to girls or the girls in your area not to your liking? If it is the latter, then it is best to be in the position you are in. You are 18, your main goal in life should be about your future. I know many men who ruined their lives JUST to gain female approval. Always remember it is not about the quantity of women around you, but the quality!!

Don't look.

It comes when you least expect it.

Just live your life, and be happy and confident and it will come in time.

At 18 you should not even be looking for that. Worry about your education.

You're only 18, you are waaaay too young to be worrying about never finding love. Do you have plans to go to college? A lot of people your age find their girlfriend/boyfriend while in school. And a good deal of them marry after college, some move on to fiind other loves.

Don't have a panic attack until you're30 and have never had a date. Then you have a problem.

I'd say, quit looking, take up some other passion, maybe try to better yourself at some aspects that you have interest in, put your mind more on personal growth and the women will seem to come at you hard.

Go out and meet people but don't give the impression of desperation, that tends to drive people away. (men and women)

wow when I was 18, my goal was to get my drivers license and then to get the eff out of this town..somehow my focus on that led me to lots of dates and then my first love. even though I wanted to meet someone, I didn't focus much, if any energy on it and somehow, I met people anyways.

the same thing is happening to me now (6 years later)..sorta. I'm super busy with school and work because I'm determined to better my future even further because I don't want to rely on anyone but myself. and what do ya know..now I have all kinds of social activities to keep me busy and everyone is inviting me out..I'm sure along the way I'll find my next boyfriend/future husband because I'm definitely meeting a lot of people as well.

my advice, focus on something that matters to you, throw yourself into it and somehow/someway someone will show up through all your daily interactions, trust me! you'll be too distracted to care about being single.

anyways, my homework break is over now..but I'll be back to see what others had to say hehe.
