You can't meet them after you graduate tho.

I wish someone had told me that.

Well alright.. I guess this reminds me why I started posting more and more exclusively in the kitchen sink section..

Everything I was taught is wrong. I'm giving up.

What do you mean everything you were taught was wrong?
Put yourself out there & meet people & make friends
Work on yourself
Wait till after you graduate
Be yourself
Don't worry about it
It'll happen

for starters

Oh, gotcha. I myself have never dated or had a boyfriend, so wouldn't have any suggestions for you really. :) I see there's been a lot of discussion about this, most of which I've missed, but it sounds like you're struggling, so I hope things start working out for you as you seek God and this desire in your life.

"Put yourself out there" :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

I'd just stress to those in college & younger, work your tail off to find future wife when you're young, b/c when you get older, it ain't happening, you don't have a prayer. So whatever it may be: bars, church groups, school, extracurriculars, etc. Minute you graduate & your education is done, it's as good as done.
I've had several friends in the last 10 years, all post-college, who met people and got married. Most of them are still married. However, it is easier to meet people when you're still in college, and I wish my college years were more productive in that area.

Feelings aren’t facts. You may feel like quitting because you’re disheartened. But your posts on other threads tell a different story. Tell yourself the truth and affirm it daily.

I feel like giving up but I won’t. God is with me.

How'd they meet?

& then my grandma teases me & is like 'you should join a church group. You'll meet a girl there.'

:unamused:

& my dad says I need to try online dating
:unamused: I don't have the guts to tell him it's useless

Your owner should be thrashed! I’m happy to hear you’re back in the driver’s seat. :D

Plus, I don't get why people are so reliant on dating sites. I feel like most people have a social circle large enough to fill a stadium.

Through church and through dating sites.
That's depressing. Dating sites are totally useless for me.

I only once went onto an online dating site. Never again!

There were some real dogs on there!

Woof!

Volume. Just because you have a large circle doesn’t mean there’s a suitable prospect. Widening the net allows you to communicate with prospects you wouldn’t meet otherwise.
