We are about the same age. I am 21 going on 22 in a few months. One of my sisters basically told me this when i was talking to her about a similar situation. i was all depressed because I thought this one guy that I had a small fling with at the end of summer was everything I wanted in a guy (turns out he's a fake prick, but that's another story). I said, I am 21 and I am running out of time because I am graduating soon. She looked at me and proclaimed "Jen, that's just it. YOU ARE 21!"
Bottom line, you have your entire life ahead of you to find someone special. My big sis is getting married this summer and she is 27. Sure my roommate is dating a good friend of mine so whenever i wanna hang out with both of them, it's almost unconfortable when i get left alone with them. And my other best friend is kinda sorta dating someone else. Oh well. Let them be and do what they want.
I am at the point right now where I have too much going on that I would not be able to sustain a healthy relationship. I just got a FT time job that cuts out my late night socializing, I am going to be going to another school in the Fall, I have a ton of guy friends that act like stand ins so scary boys don't hit on me at bars (it's fun), and I am going to start working out eventually. See no time!
DOn't throw yourself into a relationship just for the sake of having a relationship. I stayed in a long term thing longer than it was worth and it eventually turned abusive.
Enjoy your freedom cuz i am sure when we are hitched up and 40+, we will wonder what we should have done back in our 20s to live it up.
