How to Cope With Being Single?

Cafe is trolling but Ed! You have such youth! Worry not, young lad. When I was your age, there were still guys who thought girls were icky or had cooties! Law That said, don't start worrying about I will never find someone at age 14. Take it from your senpai! If you start graying or losing your hair, if your stamina depletes faster than a Shedinja in a Sandstorm, or if you have a bodily scent comparable to Grimer or Gloom... That is when you start worrying. Or if you get to your mid 20s, and are a NEET. And don't have skills for taking care of yourself like cooking and laundry. Learn that stuff now while you live with your parents or elder sibling, cousin, senpai, roommate, etc. Ganbare Ed-kun.

There's nothing wrong with trying to find a significant other, but don't let it define your existence or anything. Sure, it would be nice to have someone, but the reality is that you're 14. In highschool everybody's brains are thinking the same thing, so if it's going to happen, it's going to happen whether you like it or not. And if it doesn't happen – you still have a lot of time ahead of you. And Mainichi isn't trolling, LOL; I have no idea why people always think they are.

I wasn't trolling at ALL. I just talk from a real life perspective instead naive anime forum perspective because i've lived a life. whoops.

Ed, it would be more of a shame to die not knowing who you are instead of a stranger. There is no need to rush through life.

The sooner you find someone the sooner you can die with no regrets? Spoken like a true tennager... A relationship is not the end all be all, rather, it's an experience. Honestly, your first relationship will more than likely fail and the ensuing heart break will have you questioning if it was worth it. Relationships are great, but so are friendships and so is life. There's no need to "cope" with being single. If you have to cope, you're doing it wrong. Let things happen at a natural pace. Some go thru many relationships, while others don't even have a handful in a lifetime, but neither is to be envied. We all experience life a little bit different and it's those experiences (good and bad) that make life a beautiful and precious thing. Focus on just living and learn what that means for you.

Thanks everyone. You've given me a lot to think about.
