Nope, I've been single almost 3 years, still insecure, lonely and love a bit of attention lol. Just work on yourself first (she says). Anyone would be flattered by a good looking guy saying you look good. Chill! Xx

He wasn’t good looking Grin But still...

On another note, I am also a bit down as I have been meeting people a lot recently (s couple on nights out, seemed like very nice guys), we kiss but doesn’t progress further. I take it so personally. Someone tell me it will get better

its a bit random of him but if its made you feel nice, then good for you. i'm shortly 40 and i find its the "trying to dress modern" 55 year olds who i now get attention from.

it will get better, totally didnt expect to meet my husband when i did after being single for three years. i wasn't prepared to be the girlfriend of just anyone not to be alone.

Oh 100%, I’m very picky which is partly my issue - would far rather have no one than someone I don’t really rate!
