writes: I was wondering if I could get some opinions on not only still being single at 29, but never having been in a relationship at all. Im 29 and Im starting to feel like some kind of weirdo. I was very shy when I was younger but came out of my shell in college, but when I did nothing changed, girl wise. I go out regularly with my friends but I am the guy that always goes home alone. In fact on the last night out a (sober) girl laughed into my face when I chatted her up. All my life girls have just treated me with indifference and Im starting to think that its a permanent attitude they have. Can I get some advice/opinons?

Going home alone from a night out is great if you really are looking for a relationship, because a one night stand is not a relationship. Try other methods and widen your horizon? There are many others on dearcupid.org who asked similar questions, so a quick search through the archive might give you the right tips and helpful ideas.

It could be a number of things.1. Are your standards too high? I had friends in college that wouldn't talk to a woman unless she was perfect. He didn't date much.2. Are you outgoing?3. Are you missing her signals? Now that I am older and reconnecting with the girls in my past through facebook, I am suprised to learn that there were a number of women that liked me, but I missed their signals.4. Do you have low self esteem? If you don't like yourself, neither will women.I bet you are just missing signals. Put yourself out there. Don't wait for the woman to approach you, you need to approach her. Show some confidence, and I bet your luck with the ladies will change.Good Luck!Jeff
