Hi ladies, I was just thinking about how much I've been craving a relationship lately which really made me settle for less on too many occasions. The problem is, despite currently having a very accomplished life (pursuing my Bachelor's, fabulous friends, lots of hobbies and activities, taking care of my mind and body, etc.) I am still feeling like something is missing - and that something is a relationship. I think one reason that I want a relationship so bad is that all my friends have boyfriends, and it sounds like it's making them very happy. I am prepared to put in the required amount of effort to actually find a good match for me, but the problem is, as you all might know, most guys end up being a whole waste of time and end up disappointing me. I have already been through so many let downs and my patience supply is running thin.

So in that sense, I wish I could just stop feeling the need for a relationship. Anyone got tips on how to do that? Rationally, I know my life is so good right now. But emotionally, I keep feeling like it's not enough. How do I change that?
