I've been keeping up with what they've been doing over facebook, and they are having a really nice time.I'm so happy for the both of them, but I can't help but feel this slight case of envy. They're together, seeing amazing things, doing amazing things together, and lets face it, they're both going to be pretty active in the bedroom without their parents/anybody at all around. I'm currently single, and I haven't been in a proper relationship for over a year now. I guess this is where my envy generates from. I often find myself envious of people who have others. It's a bit like I'm stuck in the frame of mind that I need somebody at my side to feel truly happy and I know that isn't the way it should be.I need to kick the envy, and find a way to be single and happy until such time as I find a partner. How can I do this?

The best thing you can do is keep busy, make friends and don't let not having your life partner stop you travelling and having fun.
Relationships can be great, but their hard work and every couple have rouch patches. When were single we can forget about how tough keeping someone else happy is! Its highly possible you won't meet the man of your dreams for a few years yet so you need to find something to keep you sane.
Focus on your career! Focus on trying to move out to your own place! Focus on creating a nice little set up for yourself. I bet when your friends get home they will be more then jealous when they realise they have start all over again while you might be renting your own place.
So what I'm trying to say is If your Horny, masterbate, if your jealous, change things and if your still feeling left out then go find yourself a man and try him out! If it doesn't work you'll buy yourself more time as a singleton!
AuntYvi.
