22 years and counting. . .

They go "oh my god, you've never had a boyfriend? why?" That's got to be one of the most irritating questions. Like how do you explain 22 years of never being in a relationship? I don't know if it's because I want too much or if it's because I know exactly what I want. Either way, explaining why I'm single is harder than it should be. & there's always the one guy who says "sh**, I'd be your boyfriend." Uhm, am I supposed to take that as a compliment or as a pity gesture? I'm ok with being single. Granted I'd like a man to share my time with, to get to know on a very personal level, to learn and grow with; but that doesn't seem to be in God's plan at this moment. I like to think that I'm single because God is still hard at work finding and building the right guy for me. Maybe I'm being naive, and maybe I need to lower my standards but would lowering my standards just lead to heartbreak and ending up in a disastrous relationship? I think I'll keep my high standards, continue to know myself, and keep waiting for God to send Him my way.
