Still Stuck

Jobless
Its been 16 months since I graduated with my Master's Degree... and I am still without a full-time job. In all honesty, I think around the 1 year mark, I gave up almost completely. The stress of it all has incapacitated me in new and horrifying ways. Sure, I still remain mostly coherent in my social life, but that's part of the problem. Most people see me and think everything's okay when really I'm falling apart inside, I just happen to be happier when I'm with people.

Boyless
Though I am always interested in romance and relationships... and guys in general, I don't see myself as someone who NEEDS a boyfriend. However, at this point in my life I'm getting weary of my regular pattern which I just repeated once again: Meet new boy, have crush on boy, get to know boy, become good friends with boy, like boy even more, get tired of waiting, tell boy how I feel, boy is not interested, get sad and move on. Everyone tells me how great they think I am (males and females alike), and yet it feels like lip service when no guy has shown more than a nickel's worth of interest in me for the last SIX YEARS!!!
