Question
i feel lonley. on one hand the thought of a relationship seems so much work and being a free independent woman feels so much better to me. but on the other hand i would love to love someone and have them love me back. im interested in having a relationship but i instantly become so okward and quiet. i just feel like a peice of meat when i want to attract a guy. i just feel like they are only interested in one thing. i guess i just dont understand men. maybe im better off alone for now. i dont really know what my question is but maybe u can help somehow. thanks!
ps where do u sugest i go to meet someone?

Answer
it IS possible to be free, independent and have a relationship--it depends how you set it up; some guys APPEAR motivated by 1 thing, but even THEY have other needs as well; my feeling is you just would like to find someone to share some of your life with; as to where/how, how old are you?..how have you gone about meeting guys previously? what's your relationship history?
