what's wrong with men today? It's me? it's them? are all the good ones taken? am I very demanding? will I end up alone and surrounded by loneliness and sadness?

Oh my dear, I’m the worst person in the universe to answer these questions, but I feel your pain, especially today. All I know is this:

  1. There isn’t anything wrong with men today that hasn’t been wrong with them since the beginning of time. Sometimes I think it’s our own fault. We’re their mothers, after all, and we raise them to be the way they are. (I mean that rhetorically - I don’t have any children.)
  2. Alone doesn’t necessarily mean lonely and sad. It’s not being alone that sucks, it’s the things people say, and the things people do, and the way we let them get to us. You can’t imagine how much I wish I knew how to stop letting things get to me, but I’ve never been much good at that. As I’m sure you’re aware, though, Tumblr helps a lot.
  3. Where there’s youth, there’s hope. If you are still young, and I think you probably are, you still have a chance at happiness. I can’t tell you how to find it, but the odds are in your favor.

Good luck to you, sweetheart, and don’t be a stranger. ♥
