Poll: Should I worry?

[Murlin]

I've been roaming around for the past few minutes and I've seen how many people have problems with their love lives, so I started thinking: I'm 17 already and haven't even fallen in love let alone had a relation with anyone and I'm still not changing this or even thinking about changing this, I just keep on playing games, watching anime and manga, m4s'urbatin' when I feel like it, not attending parties or just sitting in the corner waiting for it to be over when I'm actually there, and turning down the rare occasions girls ask for my phone number.
Some people around me told me I should maybe start being a bit more conscious about my life, should I worry about what they tell me and about my life today and tomorrow?

EDIT: some clarification:
-on the parties thing, I'm talking about discos the school sometimes organizes (I'm a boarder) I live way to far from anyone or school to be actually attending their parties without having to drive to 'em for five hours, French boondocks ftl... so often I don't bother.
-Do I talk to girls? I just luv telling them crazy stories to scare the shit out of 'em! that might be negative thing though...
-I don't accept girls phone numbers 'cuz I don't ever really feel like it's going to turn out very well...
-I've had no relationship, which means no sex at all not even a little kiss. And I don't give a shit.

For all those who are shocked by me openly telling myself I masturbate: If you do it you might as well come clean about it.

Nah, it'll work out. I'm just the same.

Only reason to worry is if you don't go out enough to meet girls. If you meet a lot of girls and don't find any that you like, you shouldn't consider yourself to be unfit for a relationship. I met my girlfriend back when I was 16, and we're still great. Aside from her, nobody else was actually...worth dating, so try to go on from that example...


Aside: Geez there have to be a lot of relationship threads nowadays. I guess it's the trend of the month to make up for all the "ODST: WHY I HAET" threads.

Dude, it's the internet. We're either talking about sex, video games, or Bruce Campbell.

Bottom line. DON'T WORRY. Love isn't something that happens overnight (sex, on the other hand.)

[small]And how about that Bruce Campbell?[/small]

 

[MiserableOldGit]

Are you enjoying yourself? If so, keep it up, because I guarantee some fucker will come along and ruin it for you sooner or later.

 

[ottenni]

Not falling in love at that age is good, wait till you are older. But still go out and meet chicks. They really are a great bunch, much more interesting that bots. You don't need to go to parties though, i sympathize with you there. Just enjoy yourself. Your 17 what else are you supposed to do?

 

[RetiarySword]

Nothing wrong with being single, but be a bit more social at parties adn try hang out with more people. Your hand will be waiting for you when you get back

 

[Spygon]

There is nothing wrong with it also forcing yourself to do something you do not want to do will just make it worse.

 

[Inco]

Socailise. If you don't give something a chance, then how is it possibly going to occur?
Hell, if girls are asking for your number (even rarely) it shows that you might have potential.
Give it a chance, but don't expect anything.

Have some bloody fun. (I mean, in the context, if you are not enjoying it when trying then stop.)

I call a troll on this one.

"and turning down the rare occasions girls ask for my phone number". I wish that a girl would talk to me for more than 5 minutes let alone ask for my phone number ;_;... AND I'm going to uni for christs sake.

Depends on what you want out of life. As long as you contribute to society (have a job and don't commit crimes) then there probably isn't a problem with it.

 

[Nickolai77]

I would just say that it might be worth making the effort to socalise at parties a bit more, or indeed make more friends in general. I don't need to explain why people should spend time with friends.

Don't worry about the whole gf lark, don't let the fact that this forum is full of relationship threads today worry you. If you want to get a gf, then act confident and assertive and be funny. If your not too fussed, then go with the flow and if a girl asks for your number, and you think she's reasonable, go along with it and enjoy the ride

 

[j0z]

Another thread... and I post in it also...

Be more social, AND WHY DO YOU NOT GIVE YOUR PHONE # TO GIRLS!?!?
Unless they are really ugly, but if they are normal...
But don't worry, the right one will come.

 

[Spitfire175]

You don't have to go to parties to socialise. Rgular life offers enough social contacts. Just don't expect them to come knocking on your door, you have to find them. Watching anime(or anything) at home isn't going to help you.

 

[cloudywolf13]

You should ask yourself if you want those things or if you think you're supposed to want those things.

You can have the girl chasing me... you should get along with her aslong as you like anime and manga.
and a whole list of other things (behavior, attitudes, etc, which I unfortunately fit :|)
ugh... I just want to keep myself to myself...

anyway... on to the topic:
Don't be worried. enjoy your laid-back lifestyle while you can. please.

Why do you turn down girls who ask for your phone number? Are you just not interested in them personally, or just relationships in general? You're 17, you don't need to worry about the future, well maybe what college you want to go to and what you want to study, but further than that isn't worth it.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

No need to worry. I'm almost exactly the same, and it's worked out so far.

 

[SomethingUnrelated]

You should just try going out every onbce in a while. Try throwing a wild party with a few friends, and get them to invite a few girls. It'll all take off from there.
