Yes, but he
can help himself better by building some self-confidence!
A
Paycheck Isn't the Ultimate
While I definitely
believe that you don't have to have a boy/girlfriend to
be happy, this young man definitely needs to build some
self confidence and learn to be a well-rounded person. While
having a 60K a year paycheck is nice, it certainly isn't
the end-all, be-all either!
How
To Be Happy
You cannot be
happy simply by having someone in your life, and you cannot
be happy simply by having money in your life. But you CAN
be happy if you can build the self confidence that will
allow either of those.
Nick, you are
stuck in an endless circle -- no confidence because you
don't have a girlfriend, no girlfriend because you don't
have any confidence.
Fun
To Be Single
The best way
to get out of this: stop focusing on the fact that you don't
have a girlfriend. That truly is okay and is nothing to
be ashamed or upset about. In fact, it can actually be a
lot of fun to be single! Start focusing on you -- find activities
that you like, build yourself up in ways that make you feel
good about who you are. Find something that you can look
forward to being a part of -- whatever that is for you.
Like
Who You Are
I will tell you
that when you start believing in yourself and starting understanding
that you have something worth while to share with others,
then you will start attracting people. You have to LIKE
who you are first, though -- and only you can change how
you feel about yourself.
There are different
types of people -- the ones who laugh and enjoy every minute
of their lives are the ones you are drawn to -- those are
the ones who have learned to accept and BE who they are,
make no apologies for it and understand that someday, the
right person will come along. And in the meantime, there
is absolutely nothing wrong with just having FUN...
