3. Complaining about being single instead of going out to find someone

Chances are, if you’re in your mid-twenties, you have a friend who’s desperate for love but has no initiative. This is the guy who keeps getting friend-zoned by females because he performs boyfriend duties – such as watching movies with the girl or SMS-ing her all night – without making his intentions known. This is the girl who constantly talks about how much she wants a boyfriend, but who hasn’t met any new guys in two years. Couples constantly ask these singletons why they don’t just do something if they want an S.O. that badly. More than likely, these people are single because they want love to happen the way it does in fairy tales: by chance.
