Wow, Ashley, when I read your post it was like reading my personal diary entry or something! We are so very similar....
I have been single since October, when I broke up with a boyfriend of eight months, and before that had a boyfriend of 3 years...so yeah, this has been the longest I've been single in a REALLY LONG TIME. Probably since I started dating as well...and the few dates I've managed to get, no sparks. It's really frustrating...And it doesn't help that I'm in a new place and started a new program, which is almost entirely guys, but none of whom I would want to date (tried that, ruined that friendship, and now it's so awkward between us )...besides the last thing I want to do is end up with another chemical engineer. I agree with most people here, that dorkiness is better than being full of yourself....but try being surrounded by 20 males who are both dorky and completely arrogant! LOL. They just think that they know everything!
I think that I'm hitting "the age" where I really want to settle down...I too turn 24 soon (end of July -- I'm a leo as well!!), and my parents were married very young (20, my mom had me at 21)...so I guess I'm starting to feel old. I've always had my plans, and they were to go to college, meet someone, get married and then go to grad school. Well, so far, I'm on track, except for the marriage part :P
And it doesn't help that ALL of my close girlfriends are either engaged or married! And many have all started having kids! I REALLY want kids now. Unfortunately, I have to wait to find a guy willing to make some first And to top it all off, my parents are teasing me about grandchildren! My dad whines about how all his other friends have grandchildren, and how it would be so cool to have some.
I'm starting to really miss all of the perks of being in a serious relationship...I'm a big time nurturer, so I love having someone to cook and clean for, and just take care of! Plus, I miss the cuddling, having someone to go out and try new things with, and having a warm body to sleep next to. And having someone love you no matter what and make you feel sexy when you are at your very lowest Sigh.
And it doesn't help that I think I am very picky...Especially now that I do want something serious. So ya, I feel your pain Ashley! I keep thinking if I don't focus on it, it will happen. But how long does a girl have to wait?!?!
