Now, just to be clear here, there's nothing wrong with being single. I've been there. I was single for a long, long time, and I was fine with it. Sure, there were some awkward third-wheel moments at social gatherings, but let's face it, long-term, committed relationships just aren't for everyone.
But when you want a partner and can't find one, it can be frustrating and disappointing like little else in life. It's hard not to take rejection personally, and it's hard to reject someone else who's just looking for love, and you spend a long time wondering why it just won't work out for you.
Well, scientists have been looking into it and they've been able to make some helpful conclusions. The good news is, there's hope for us all!
