I do not run a matchmaking service. This is just a fun poll
I would choose option D. I would like to concentrate on my studies for now. Besides, falling in love with my age is too fairytaleish and definitely not possible long term.
Yes, I am actively searching
Yes, but I’m not too eager
No. I have lost all hope at this point
No, I have more important things to do
I am in love, they just don’t know it yet 😞
I’m in love and they are in love with me as well

**Besides, at my age, falling in love seems too fairytaleish and definitely not possible long term**
I'm mostly in D ("No, I have more important things to do"), but also stuck between B ("Yes, but I’m not too eager") & C ("No. I have lost all hope at this point").
In 1 sense, I've may too much catch-up work to do just to get where I should be, and I forecast a bit of an unpredictable life that's potentially dangerous (& with risk of unpleasant outcomes if all my efforts come to naught) ahead of me. That said, wouldn't it be conceited selfishness to drag someone into my fate just for my own petty amusement? So, D.
But at the same time, things could go well, and later finding a trustworthy consort not into me just for my assets will be tougher after the success become apparent. So, pursuit seems rational, logical, and mutually-beneficial in the long-run. So, B.
But then again, looking at the battlefield/marketplace of dating & courtship here in the U. S. & back in the Philippines and considering my state today, So, C.
I'd like a woman who can break the curse. Until then, I'm trying to figure out how to turn something I turned into an HTML app back in 2012 into a Mac app. Don't wanna have to spend oodles of money for a MacBook just to run XCode for one project though. But at the same time, Virtual Box is... very limited. It's almost sad how little I can do. Trying to complete every project I've ever wanted to but couldn't. Publish some stuff. Be an accomplished author. Worry about finding another woman when I have something to show for my efforts.
Well, you know my answer to this question. I am very much in love with someone who also loves me. So, no I am not searching. That time in my life has luckily ended. Now, it is on to looking forward to getting married at the end of the year.
Then, soon after that, we want to try to start a family. With any luck, we will have two healthy children in the near future. For those that are searching or looking for love, don't give up.
I told my husband yesterday Im contemplating a divorce. We haven't been a couple for 2 years. During those 2 years I have been very much aware of how much I wanted love. I still have some desire to find someone to love and who loves me back. Someone who won't betray me. I don't know if I'll find it. I can't say I'm openly looking for it but I can say I do hope I can't find it one day. But honestly some days seem damning.
I am very much in love with my husband despite his drinking habit. The person I wish someday who would genuinely express her love for me is my mother. I am still searching for that missing link. Everything w/my mother comes w/an attachment - I love you if you do this for me or I love you if you borrow me some money or I love you if you help me with this..
I agree that falling in love at 17 is a bad idea! The chances of you BOTH ending up at the same college, are slim to none! I had to break-up w/ my Boyfriend, because I neither wanted him cheating on me, nor did I want to waste my entire college experience keeping my candle lit for a high school romance that may very well be over on his side, he’s just too cowardly to tell me! But no, I'm not “looking for love” I’ve never once actually LOOKED for love… love finds you when you least expect it!
I am single it's not like I'm looking for it but I am aware of it I want it and will feel it when it happens
Very powerful and beautiful thing and when you can become one with somebody and somebody's energy it will be breathtaking it will melt you so you know when it's happening and I wish those days would come around LOL but I haven't put myself out there and I really should
Nope , I have never been searching for it. I do not think the love is a term which can be searched like job application that we try to find a most suitable one for us or like looking for something on the internet as if you are given homework. The love is when you do not even expect. But , to me , the most important love is my God who has created all the loves for the people already.

I am a B. I am content. I keep an eye out for friends and maybe one I an develop more closeness with. I think people need to be content to be a good mate. Needy or lacking can lead people to depend on others to fill a gap that is not going to happen. then disappointment. This is a taker mind frame. There are a lot of people whining and complaining about how bad others treat them. A giver comes from contentment and excess. A place of stability. I love to help and comfort people but I don't feel attracted to the damsel in distress or someone who complains about how bad their life is and they are treated. Bubbly considerate and tough people really get my attention.

For your update. Might I suggest for people your age to concentrate on yourself. Develop who you want to be. Again being stable and well rounded and grounded is a grate place to be. People are often asked what do you want in a mate. But they should ask what do I have to offer? Don't waste your youth on experimenting and distractions when all the free education is available. You are free to explore so many things. It gets very expensive in a few years. I would be so bold as to say wait till around 24 or 25. That is when the human brain has fully developed and people know more about themselves and are more settled.
Nah. I haven't given up. I just think there are so few women that want, and are willing to give what it takes for a successful relationship. Relationships (even good ones) take effort and I'll get into a relationship when I meet a lady that deserves my 100% effort.
I'm an awkward mix of A, B, C, and D. But for those youngins that picked D, a word from someone who's been there: there will always be something to concentrate on. If not school, then your career, buying a home, sick parents or yourself, "working on yourself". The older you get, the more life throws at you and the fewer opportunities you have to meet people.
The phrase "youth is wasted on the young" exists for a reason.

I am still looking for opportunities but I am a realist. I was a slow learner but I DID learn some hard lessons over the years.
The last woman I had true love for was way back in 2014. How did I know it was true love? Because I truly wanted her to be happy even if it was a future without me. But she did truly love me? Well she told that to me for almost a year. But that turned out to be an extended schoolgirl crush considering how she treated me in the end.
Yeah. I made some relationship mistakes early on so yeah. I'm just taking it easy now and sorting myself out first. I don't see the point of hooking up so that's out of the box too. I'll date once I'm in a position to take care of the girl
That seems like a great idea. We all make mistakes at some point and that’s okay. We live and learn. I’ve made quite a few relationship mistakes as well. It’s only a mistake if you don’t learn from it.
I’m glad you’re focusing on yourself and trying to be better. Wishing you only the best! ^_^
Yeah. It's good that you're waiting until you're a little more older. I dated when I was around your age, got cheated on (can't go into more detail here) and went into mild depression. Since then, I'm a little "reserved" for good measure and focusing on myself. Wishing you well too, I'm sure you'll be fine. :)
I was in a relationship a few months ago.. got cheated on as well. What can I say except for the fact that I have a terrible taste in partners. But I’m over it and am able to identify the red flags now.
I’m sorry that happened to you.. and I truly hope you find someone who deserves you. Have a lovely day! ^_^
You know it's not like that you are always actively searching for someone, it's like you met wid someone and you don't know that you going to fall in love wid him or her.
Otherwise we all people are mostly focus in our careers.
Some of us won't meet such a 100% compatible person. Something may happen that'll force you after a decade or two to separate. You can still be in love with them. Maybe we are meant to be with a new person at that point in life... But you're probably like me, super picky waiting for the right one. I believe astrology can be useful for some people to know the date when you'll meet them. I have some personal experience with it.
I found my soulmate, in love all the way, gives me what I want in my life, surprises, the family, the career, more surprises, it just couldn’t get better I love the girl to death
I already found love… a word to the wise though love is a choice, you make the choice to love someone. Infatuation and lust are chemical and often mistaken for love.
True & much over-looked. Oxycontin, dopamine, and the like are a thing, and if your relationship is based on a chemical-high, prepare for disaster when the body develops resistance in 2years or less.
More than Open for love. Not expecting it anytime soon. I have recently escaped the aftermath of having broke and toxic family plus relocation to a broke dictatorship eastern country. I am back in Europe now and on my recovery in all aspects: mentally, physically, health, financially etc...
When u say " Besides, falling in love with my age is too fairytaleish and definitely not possible long term." I wanna say i agree but I'm just so fricking lonely gbu!!
I think we all are bound to destiny. I met this guy who wants to marry me. I rejected but now I feel like I should. Nothing is really working. he is always on my face.
At this point in my life love would be a nice change. I have been the single parent and raised my kids and now to love and be loved would be the next chapter. @wonderbell99 what are you studying?
That is quite wonderful. I wish you the very best and I hope you find what you’re looking for. 😊
Finals are going on, but I am planning on going to medical school and become a doctor. Preferably, a psychiatrist so I can help people with their mental health.. but undergraduate first (fingers crossed 🤞)
