The thing that infuriates me the most is that if a girl/woman decides not to pursue the opposite sex at a certain time of her life, she is considered a lesbian. (Not that I have anything against gays, i'm fully supportive).
I'm only 15 and for some reason my friends find it weird that I'd rather hang with boys as friends than as love intrests. It kind of makes me want to, oh I don't know, slap them until they wake up and smell the roses.

And yes, Wretched is a wonderful word.

Well, it's not stupid at all to be in a relationship.
I just think that people who are single shouldn't be treated like they have some kind of illness that must be cured immediately.
Truth be told, I wouldn't mind having a relationship; but where am I going to find a tall, dark, handsome, pale, slim, green-eyed man who wears black, has an interest in the paranormal, reads voraciously, likes candles and roses, is a Scorpio, plays the saxophone, and quotes William Blake...? Lol.

Yes! That's very true. For some reason, society seems to expect women to stay at roughly the age of 14, oohing and ahhing over guys until they day they die. Well, not until the day they die; for some reason, women over 50 are not expected to be "safe", not to be sexual in any way (yet science proves otherwise).

Ahhhh, 15. 4 (almost 5) whole years ago, I spent the ages of 11 to 17 telling every single guy I came in contact with that I considered their gender to be a heinous blot on the face of the earth. They all took me quite seriously (I meant it at the time) and so I am still date-less. I had guy friends like you do, I just had to drop them because they're very grabby (and vapid). I swear, all the guys that are actually gentlemen are a little too old for me to feasibly date (we're talking late 50's here). I wish I knew why manners were gone.

Anyway, I have a link you may like--ignore the lack of punctuation, though I don't know, maybe they don't have spellcheck. Anyway, I have a shorter version of this on a postcard ("Because...we are Feminists"). [link]

Yes! Wretched is wonderful. I also like forsooth and verily. I have no idea why.

I totally get what you mean. People would rather be in stupid pathetic dead end relationships with assholes then actually wait for someone they like to come along. Like being single is a disease. I hate when married people treat you like your trying to steal there man, like single means whore...people certainly think that's what bisexual means.

And theres no celebrations for singles besides our birthday and usually then we end up eating a pint of ice cream by ourselves. And why must we be called Spinsters, why not something more positive.

I swear, just like you any guy I find whos personality is attractive is like 50+, why do they have to be old to finally be decent and worthy enough to date. I wouldn't be totally against dating someone older, but I think I'm starting a bit early LMAO

What the hell do you hear when I talk to you, Dolphin squeaks! -Anti

Exactamundo. Being single shouldn't be viewed as "pathetic" by so many people.
Ick, really? Maybe they think Tila Tequila represents all bi people.

True. I end up celebrating things like movies and stuff (if you can call building a creepy shrine to Hellboy in my closet a "celebration"), and tend to take a dim view of my birthday. I should get into celebrating it--aging should be ok.

Absol-frigging-lutely! Maybe it's because the ones 50+ are housebroken and smart enough to know that manners actually count.

Hahaha! Maybe--if I brought home someone older than my mother, I think she would probably have a massive coronary. Then she'd come back to life and kill me. LOL.
