Interesting topic trolololol.

As for me, I'm single, and for all the years I've been living in this planet (18 years old now), I never, ever, entered a relationship yet, yeah I know, it's "good" if you are student, and it prevents one from being a "young parent" like what happened to my step-brother... but damn, often times, I always get lonely... especially every time my brain causes me to become anxious for that significant other I haven't met yet, "the one" as they say.
In any case, I also have myself to blame... or... maybe them...? I really don't know, as for me, I blame myself for being a perfectionist and being so very choosy when it comes to a lover, although I guess it's still good in the end, for a person to go after the one that really passes or even exceeds their standards, rather than going to some random person and forming a relationship with them just to have an "in a relationship" status and then regretting it in the end.
As for me, I gotta admit, that I do care about the looks, or I would rather say, I care and judge a book by its cover and contents, I care and judge a food by how it is presented and how it tastes, same goes to potential lovers, and unfortunately, due to my perfectionist attidue, which I had since I was still a kid, I wasn't able to see a person that matches my standards who is single, most of the ones I saw are already in a relationship too.
Though I fell in love around twice, during my elementary years (graduating), I was able to see someone that passes my standards, the first person to made me blush everytime I see that person haha, but unfortunately I graduated before I can even have my approach, although I think that person knows about my feelings, which I confessed online after we met again for around 3 years, although yeah, as usual, that person is now taken hahaha!!
I also have my childhoodfriend, and yeah, I gotta say, this person is also as good looking as the other one, and also has a very good character and attitude like the other one too, and we have known each other for a long time, though we rarely play around when we were kids because my childhoodfriend likes staying indoors or would go from their grandparents' house (which is located to my location as well that time) to their own house and viceversa, I was thinking it was such a waste because I wasn't able to spend more time with that person, but if it did, my romance story would be very similar to those childhoodfriend romance you often see in anime, and damn, that just makes into a perfect cliche!!!
I always do a facepalm whenever I remember this missed chance... you can say it's one of my biggest dream romance scenario to have, I mean... IT'S JUST SO ROMANTIC FOR GOODNESS SAKE!! AAAHHH!!! WHY DID I MISSED THE CHAAAAANCE?!!?!?!? AAAAAAHHH!!!
TTTT____TTTT
Right now though, they are in another country, and the parents are working there, too, I dunno if my childhoodfriend is also taken now, but my mother has contacts with the parents...
In any case, well, yeah that's my "love story" that failed in a very miserable way, as for now, I'm still searching for that one person, potential lover. Q_Q
So yeah, to be accurate, it would be: Single + Searching.
But damn, due to my current environment, there are just so many people here who would not pass my standards because, most of them doesn't share the same interests I have.... yeah, anime, manga, games, and other Japanese stuff, most of them are grounded here, and they think anime is for kids dafuq -prepares to show my hentai stash-.
To be precise though, I find it hard to find someone who has that gentle, cute and refined demeanor, someone who is open minded enough to accept the things I am interested in, mostly complicated things such as Quantum Physics and the likes.
And for some reason, since I like anime and music, if they can sing and
draw, it's a huge bonus points for me trololololol, unfortunately those two crushes I have when I was a kid, if I can intelligently guess it right, they can't do such thing, except maybe sing, although that's quite a pretty common ability of most people here, except drawing, which is very rare, but... yeah, they more likely to never share the same interests as me, though I dunno what would have happened if we were able to get to know each other better. DX
As for generality purposes though, I can sum it up with these words: "I can go for anyone as long as its cute." YEAH!!!
And I'm not joking when I said that, and I have a wide acceptance to potential lovers... as long as they're cute (on my own sight and perception of them, that is).
Well I feel kinda good for being able to vent about my frustration and anxiousness regarding these things, and damn, it looks like I will indeed follow the footsteps of my mother, who never had a boyfriend until she became a 3rd Year college, right now, I'm 2nd year college (which tecnichally should have been 3rd year college should I not stopped for a while for a vacation).
Well, I'm actually quite antisocial eversince I entered Highschool, it stems from the fact that 1 out of 10% of people don't share the same interests as mine, and I don't share their interests too, so I only have 2-3 friends, and so I always socialize in the internet instead, where finding people with the same interests as mine is a whole lot easier, rather than searching on a limited are in this city or more precisely, this country, with internet, I can find more people throughout the world hohoho.
And I got bullied a lot as well lol, so yeah, I generally avoid social gatherings, like Christmas Parties (unless it's limited to around 20 people only or something), Proms, being the center of attention (I really don't like that feeling when all the people around me look at me, it's like they're raping me with their eyes, making me very uncomfortable with it) and such. DX
And I generally hate noisy people and/or surroundings, I prefer quiet ones, with little to no noise pollution.

-reads the failed love story I typed above again-
In any case, I'm quite happy with my current status though, for I can spend my own money on prepaid cards to buy cash items on the online games I play, instead of spending it for a date lol.
But yeah, I do tend to get lonely whenever my brain acts like a jerk by reminding me the loneliness of not having a relationship, or having someone to rely on and comfort me or a "shoulder to cry on" whenever my parents aren't available. UGH! Q_Q
