Is it normal that i am 23 year old girl and i feel like i will never meet someone?

I am 23 and I have never had a boyfriend before. I pretty much never get hit on or get much male attention and I don't know how I am supposed to meet a guy if guys aren't showing interest in me when I am out in public. I've never had a guy even ask for my number or leave me his number. I am 5'4 and 120 lbs. It makes me sad because I feel like I will still be 30 and alone/lonely.

    I wish I were your age again. I would concentrate all my energy on my academic and career goals. If I were your age again I wouldn't waste time even thinking twice about guys.

        I said that, because working on one's goals is where it's at! Nothing good will come of obsessing about boys.

    It's 2018. It's ok for the woman to make the first move. If you see a guy that looks interesting then start a conversation. Guys love being hit on. Once you have established he is available you can exchange numbers and go from there.

    You won't be single. You'll find someone cool and awesome! You'll be married and have kids. Don't worry. Trust me

    I'm 22 years old and I've been in the same predicament as you. I think it's a lot more common for guys. There was this time when I was very upset with the whole situation and decided that I would play a game of eye contact, and it worked! I got two cute girls to reciprocate the "I'm interested look". I was just too shy to take it to the next level. Try it! it will be super effective for a girl like you 💘 guys will definitely ask for your number

    Relationships aren’t necessary to survival, one day you might find someone, but for now, just focus your energy on your life and everything else!

    Waiting around for someone to ask you out isn't going to yield results. I didn't get a boyfriend, my first kiss, or fuck a dude until I was 26(though it was not because I was waiting on someone to ask me out, it was because people scared the fuck out of me). I started approaching guys and starting conversations. I also joined dating sites and messaged guys with similar hobbies, income, likes, dislikes, etc. Some of it ended in embarrassment because I'm socially inept, but I eventually met someone cool that I'm still dating. I'm pretty sure that if I didn't put in the effort, I'd still be single now.

  • Don't worry, lots of guys feel the same. Unless the girl makes the first move, it feels wrong to just hit on some random woman w/out knowing her relationship status or if she even wants attention.

    Anyway I agree with Rose. Focus on being successful and finding interested guys will surely be a lot easier.

    You're basically me somewhere else. Yes you are. You are me. Now listen to me. Let it go, while believing that you'll get all the happiness that is intended for you in life. You don't need to stress. Stressing over something is worse than actually having to live through it.
    People marry, have kids, have a divorce and go back to being single at say around 30. That can happen, right? So why stress? You're in a better place.
    I may sound a bit religious here (because I am) and I don't know how you'd take it. But... don't you think whatever has been decreed for you might be better than what you so fervently desire? That you might wake up one day and suddenly realise you're very thankful life turned out the way it did, and not the way you wanted it to?
    Maybe you will.
    That's not to say you won't get married or have kids. You probably will, sweetie. It'll all come. Peace now. Stop worrying yourself sick.

    I agree that guys like to be hit on. Unless you're in a club or major city it seems like nobody will ever show interest to get your number or ask you out. I've been alone for years but I know I need to focus on my career first before i get a girlfriend. If I meet someone special before then them I'm just lucky
