I've been where you're at, Stillborn, and let me just say that it's not the fact that your friends are happy with their significant others that is really bothersome.....it's that you're in this strange new place in your life (about to go to college, if I recall your initial posting) and you are finding yourself somewhat alone to deal with the newness of it. The friends you have you find yourself sharing time with - time which could be spent helping you come to grips with the life change ahead of you - and this tends to reinforce the feeling of being alone to deal with it all.

I've been there, I've lived through it, and now I'm beyond that point.....whew! When you get to school, make a point of meeting everybody on your dorm floor. Usually, your Resident Assistant (or whatever they call the person responsible for everybody on your floor) will make a point of doing this in a floor meeting or something.

Socialize. Be outgoing and friendly. Go to a party or two dozen. Believe me when I tell you that college will be a pretty hefty workload - you probably won't have time to spare for building a relationship with this girl.

........Of course, you could REALLY get lucky and she might go to the same college a couple of years down the road. Then you could "show her the ropes" as a way to see if the spark is still there.

Just a thought.
