Jealous of people with boyfriend and homecoming dates. How to feel less sad about being alone when I rejected like 3 guys?

[Anonymous]

In the past month I’ve rejected like 3 guys who I possibly could have gone to homecoming with. I really regret it even though I didn’t like them and I still believe my reasons for not being interested are justified. I only like nerdy guys but I don’t know how to talk to any of them and hoco is in 2 weeks and I’m soooo lonelyyy sometimesss. I always tell my friends to focus on themselves over guys but the whole single with no one who gets me on a romantic connection level is getting to me. I’ve never even had a boyfriend before. It’s my fault I guess but why should I settle and why won’t any smart guys talk to me?

My hs boyfriend and I broke up right before prom so went single. Well, I didn’t have a date but he was my gay friend so it was def not a romantic date. Anyway, I had SO much fun at prom. Probably more fun than if I would have went with my then boyfriend. It will still be fun if you go single but why not ask one of the nerdy guys out that you’d be into? You have nothing to lose.

So you like nerds? Nerds are often shy. Why don't you ask one out? They'd probably say yes instantly

You can talk to the smart guys too you know. There's no such thing as the perfect girl\guy, but there is such thing as good enough. As long as the guy is a good guy and not a scumbag, and you don't mind being seen in public with them then give them a chance.

Because I rejected guys I wasn’t interested in instead of leading them on? Or because I’m jealous of couples, everyone is lonely sometimes is that so wrong? I think I’m allowed to feel lonely, I’m a person.
