| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/19/2008 3:52:15 PM | There are a number of things keeping me single.
One is an issue with trust, so it takes me a while to warm up to people. I've been burnt bad a few times relationship wise. Seems like guys with big hearts are the ones who suffer the most.
The other is shyness, most of the woman I've met have had to make the first move, but once past the first kiss, I'm on fire !
Cheers Paul | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/19/2008 6:19:22 PM | | Yeah, that's a good point, women don't keep in mind that a lot of guys are shy and it would help if they put in a little effort to get to know the gentleman. As you said, Paul, a lot of us have been burned a few times in the dating wars to that makes one a little more reluctant to plunge into the fire one more time. | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/19/2008 11:32:43 PM | | I have very specific ideas about what I want and don't want, and I'm not willing to settle. Also, I've grown complacent in my single-ness and dating seems like more trouble than it's worth most of the time. | |

Some men prefer women with some body on them - I do - but I guess if you're very overweight you should try to do something about it. The good news is, it's not something you can't change, like eye color or whatever, so there's always hope. | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/26/2008 9:10:20 AM | | It's kind of interesting, I have a friend who's disabled and in a relationship with a non-disabled guy. She brings a lot of inspiration to others with disabilities who want a relationship. So why not toss out the limiting belief? It'll make you feel better :) | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/27/2008 12:17:29 PM | | The number one thing that is keeping me single is...ME. It's the whole idea of dating and feeling like someone is judging me on how I look. I am so outgoing at work and deal with the public consistently but when it comes to making a plan for a date, insecurity becomes my date. | |

Yeah, they are not very good at asking you if you want to join. And hey, when I get out, I'll let you know. Until then, welcome to the club.
I have a couple more stamped up there, but "f*** off" seems to be most prominent. | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/27/2008 4:02:18 PM | Haha! Only if you do the same for me! Though... father may not work, could be weird. Especially if the kids are older than I. lol
Even when I smile at them... the darn sign seems to flash and scare them away.. *sigh* | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/27/2008 9:48:43 PM | I'm not single. But I would like to contribute. Maybe it will help someone.
I think that many people remain single because they do not honestly know and accept themselves and (more importantly) they don't know what they want in a partner. Your chances of getting from A to B increase significantly when you know where A and B are.
I think that when people are truly comfortable with themselves they become more attractive. And when they know what they want they naturally position themselves to find what they are looking for. Isn't it funny how when you focus on you and stop trying so hard to find that "right person" that right person finds you.
Happens all the time. | |

| Name the number one thing keeping you single.. Posted: 5/28/2008 4:50:20 AM | Davidspnk has a great point. I have been doing just that the past few months...focusing on myself and doing my own thing. I have friends up on my profile for that very reason, I do not want to search anymore. I do get approached more and more now...mostly by Dweebs and Dorks, with a few honey's thrown in that are looking to dip their wick, but like the gal above, I probably have F***off written on my forehead too. I even had this conversation with another gal fish a couple weeks ago. We seem to be the same when it comes to letting people get close to us. I can appear standoffish at a party or mixer, but that is just a facade. Don't let the F***off sign fool you. It can come down!
That and the fact that when I do meet someone, I choose the wrong man who has no time for me, is terrible at communicating, and breaks dates! | |

I have to agree. From what I've seen is guys down realize the sign can be removed, I just have no control over when it pops up. lol
If we are being really honest here. The sign, being single really all comes down to being scared for me. | |

Are you saying men are afriad of you? I think they are jealous because they want our awesome head tatoo! Though the men who do give off those vibes, I find the girls are always attracted to them. Maybe Its that bad boy vibe we are attracted to. But when its girls with that, we are called "****es"
Can never seem to win...lol | |
