I wish there was a manual Telling me what to say A speech to give to someone To not push them away I wish someone wanted me The way I wanted them Someone to fall in love with My loneliness to stem "You'll find someone" they tell me But I don't want to wait I want to find someone now But no, I'll have to stay The search is never over I'll look for all my days Who knows if I will find someone To be my hope and stay? It's easy for everyone Else, they've all found they're love A perfect match for perfect ones A match made up above They don't get to say that I'll "find someone someday" It's easy to look out on me And with confidence say: "You'll find your special someone He's out there somewhere, dear" I don't want him to be "out there" • • • • I want him to be here.

I have never in my life been in a romantic relationship. I have only had one guy ever ask me out, and I've been told I was "not bad  looking" by someone else. Is there something wrong with me?
