"You're a late bloomer" is just an example of what some evergreen people hear constantly, along with "Your time will come" and "It will come when you least expect it". We are familiar with the light-hearted side of being single your whole life, but what is the reality of being evergreen? In this episode of IMO, Estee shares about her experience being single her whole life, and the emotional ups and downs that come with it.

I once had that thought during my early 20s, and I also have friends who have always been single. Im in my 30s now and recently married, so my personal advise is to put yourself out there to date. I feel the process will help you learn more about yourself and what you want or do not want in a good relationship. If you are lucky, you meet the right person on the first try, else keep trying! A good topic nevertheless !
Stumbling upon this video just while looking at relatable topics- as someone who is still single and who has been for approaching a decade now, how (if one can even remember) did you manage to put yourself out there more? I’m someone who is regularly at social events of a sort, at least in the music community, and I’ve got a new and branching social circle but find myself to be someone who has numberless great acquaintances and a handful of close friends- and yet I don’t know anyone else single of the opposite sex.
@@adamherrick6077 Trying new activities, getting out of your comfort zone to meet people of the opposite sex i guess. I don't think there is a single solution as everyone is different. I even resorted to participating in speed grouping dating and asked one of the ladies out (however did not work out). My point is you have to try and meet others, get to know someone not knowing what it may lead to next. It is this repeated process that may or may not eventually lead you to understand yourself better and hopefully help you meet someone in the near future. Hope this helped one way or another. Cheers.
Dear Estee, I resonated with almost everything you shared about being evergreen :') Feeling like you are missing out on an important life experience, being made to feel like you are the problem, the time pressure and seeing everyone else move into a different phase of life, navigating friends getting married/getting attached.. I can fully empathise having been in that season till I was 29. I want to say that no matter how many books/movies you watch or how many stories you hear about dating etc, nothing can really prepare you for being in a relationship. It is hugely exciting but can also be hugely disappointing. Nobody wants to be hurt, but you have to be willing to put yourself in that vulnerable position. I really hope you experience it for yourself one day :)
Also, Estee you are objectively attractive but I can see why guys may gravitate to other girls instead. Just like in Single's Inferno where everyone is attractive in their ways, guys tend to gravitate towards a particular type of girl - those that look more innocent, look sweeter and also have the kawaii-ness. Basically a girl that looks (and gives off the vibe of being) vulnerable and needs protecting if that makes sense. You were born with the RBF look and you also give off the vibe of being very independent and you also have a dry sense of humour that can overall be intimidating. I think you also shared it is hard for you to be vulnerable so I can guess that irl you can be quite unapproachable (for those that don't know you) and you have many walls up too. Guys can sense it and perhaps could have been interested but felt the effort required did not match their level of interest.
I personally am very much like you so I hope you don't take this the wrong way :) There are also guys out there who will definitely like you for exactly who you are - I'm convinced it is simply because you haven't met them yet. Don't change the way you are fundamentally, but it may be good to practise trying to be more vulnerable with those around you and being open to new people you are meeting through work etc by asking more open ended questions and sharing more about yourself too.
fully relate to all that estee said
