Do I know that feeling. It does work out, but not all the time. You’ll find someone who wants you for you not anyone else.

I’ve never heard of a truly successful relationship but don’t worry about it. Gain some poise and confidence i think will help you. Enjoy life and don’t chase something or try to force an impossible situation when you have no control or don’t know what to do. I believe it is possible for a relationship to work out wonderfully but you need to be yourself otherwise you’ll get lost and break down I think. Possibly experiment with life, try things out, talk to a girl or the one you like maybe. You could tell her you like her or tell her you think she’s pretty but I think you need to relax if she’s going to enjoy your company but don’t try to please her for what you think she wants, take her on a path that you want, or just be friendly and maybe she’ll come on to you. Try not to tense up out of fear and maybe you could talk to your friend about it. If he isn’t very supportive and is selfish and mean then search for a better friend. hope this is good advice, good luck

Some time love come to us late in life. But we want it so bad in life. The only one we need to love is are self in life. Show we had so at will show u love. If at u’r good friend then u should be happy for me. but it sad at u see some at u love and then there going for u’r friend but u’r friend mite have troulbe had love later in life.

I’ve heard and seen that it does. It hasn’t and never will for me, because of my own issues, but I have seen so many successes and happy marriages and lives.

Good luck honey.

Of course it does! Ask me, 42 and happily married for many….. years. (not saying)

There are thousands if not millions of happy love-lives/marriages, they just dont get advertised…..
You need to get to know yourself well though and build self-confidence. You cant force people to love you. Its a natural thing. Have you spoken to her and told her how you feel? Girls cant read minds and respond to guys who ‘hunt’ them. Take a chance on love. It may be worth it and if not , she wasnt the one for you and maybe she is meant for your friend.You cant live in your friends shadow. Move on and find new ‘friend-girls’…..
Concentrate on being happy and doing happy things. Get outdoors and start new hobbies. Join clubs, sports and build your confidence. It is confidence and a positive personality that makes people want to be in your company. Not the hollywood stereo-types.
Concentrate on your career and future cos remember chics want security….hahah!

All the best, enjoy the hunt and remember the jungle is big. Your mate is out there waiting for you to swing into her life.
