| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/4/2007 6:08:51 AM | | I'm single by choice. I don't have to argue or have dramas in my life. Right now, I'm pretty content with myself. I don't have to have someone else to complete my life. If someone comes along, when I'm not looking, fine, but I'm prepared to be alone. There is nothing wrong with me, I am very independent. :) | |

It's because I am ugly, socially retarded and have poor personal hygene. I also prefer the company of sheep.

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/4/2007 6:36:47 PM | Why is it that this is one of the first questions guys ask? It's really simple for me I have just not met the right one for me. That is what a lot of people say but it's so true. Why settle for less that what you deserve and then be unhappy? My gutt instinct has not let me down yet! I never regret anyone I have met or dated and the last relationship I had taught me a lot about what I want and what I do not want in a relationship. I like to think that the guy for me is out there looking for me and we have just not found each other yet. People say stop looking and he will come along, I choose to keep looking but to enjoy the time I have being single while on the journey to "The One"! Take Care and Good Luck! | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/4/2007 7:13:11 PM | | AH the age old question "So why are you still single.?" I hate that question. Now it's starting to pop out more because my sister that is younger then me is getting marry this year. I'm so happy for her because she found her match. I haven't been so lucky and I'm so happy that I was never will to settle for less. I too never felt there is something was "wrong" with me because I'm a bachloretter. So no you are not the only one that hears this kind of things. | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/5/2007 8:08:19 AM | | It's hard to reply to that one, except the obvious such as "I haven't met the right person" or similar generic answers. When you meet someone new it's not a time or a place to go deeply into the details of ones life. | |
|
| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/6/2007 8:11:58 PM | Whenever someone asks me why I'm still single, I reply "I'm single because I was born that way".  | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/6/2007 10:55:07 PM | ooOoo I like that one Pisces! Think I'll 'steal' the general idea... "Because two of me would cause havok". ;) | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/7/2007 1:50:40 PM | I used to hate this question... then I came up with silly answers to throw them off.
Why are you still single? I, uhm, dunno... why? ... is there a punchline?
Why havent you found yourself a boyfriend? I looked all over the place, under the bed, in the tool shed, in the bushes... but couldnt find'em.
Why arent you married? Because Im not like all the typical Italian girls who had to be married by the time I was 20...? uhm, just a thought.
My fave answer? It was about 10 yrs ago, the gay lifestyle was still very frowned upon (where I was anyway) and I when I went to a very Italian banquent, with very nosey women, asking very private questions... they asked me the typical: "Why are you still single?" My reply? "Im gay and my lover isnt out of the closet yet."
Needless to say I wasnt ever asked that ever again
I know, not very PC but my real life gay friends thought it was hysterical. | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/7/2007 3:58:09 PM | I'll tell you what, if you can find me a man who has: Morals, honesty, decent looks, good hygiene, good/ok credit, no ex-wives, a great sense of humor, and the ability to humble himself every once in a while, I'm all for a relationship...
Anyhow, I haven't found even close to that! So that's why I'm still single... | |
|
| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/7/2007 4:51:01 PM | Because i gave my sons mother 5 years to come to her senses .. when she didn't i realised i was happier alone with our son then i was with her. Never really went out of my way to look for a partner. I really am not sure why. Maybe i was afraid of getting hurt. Maybe i wanted to make sure i was a decent human being and learn to like me for who i am instead of who people think i should be. Maybe .. i just got too used to being celibate? | |
|
| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/7/2007 6:38:34 PM | I get that question a lot I think its because I'm a nice guy. Most of the ladies asking are already married or in relationships.( experienced noted) I'm still single because I'm really picky maybe to much so. I'd love to settle down but I'm not going to settle  | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/8/2007 3:12:32 PM | | Well atleast I am not alone! My time is precious! I am not wasting anymore time w/someone that I know isn't going to be in my future,,,so I will patiently wait for the man that can be a Super MAN | |
|
| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/8/2007 7:44:11 PM | | I have found out that I may still be single because I am too intense and that I may be scaring off people...To me that is a good thing. It keeps away those who do not fit into my category of datable. It shows lack of trust, fear of the unknown, and insecurity in who they are. And this is just my opinion. But, I can only be who I am, just like everyone is suppose to be. The only ones who rate my change are those who actually invest in me. | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/8/2007 7:49:11 PM | | Well Ive been single pretty much my whole life as well and I don't think there is anything wrong with that at all. But now however now that I am slowing down in my old age, maybe it's time to settle. Anyway if you want to stay single then to heck with everyone else. | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/8/2007 8:21:45 PM | i totally understand where you are coming from. i get asked that by people all the time. it is to the point where my mom is actually trying to set me up. i guess there is this preconceived notion that by the age of 30 or so, women are supposed to be married and baring children. personally i don't think that people should get married too young. you need to live life a bit and discover who you are, have some adventures and get a sense of the kind of future you want before diving into a serious commitment like marriage. i think we are just shifting into a new paradigm. the old school way was to marry, have kids, blah, blah, and now people are starting to discover themselves and their true passions before settling down. life is a wonderful gift and not everyone's path is the same. so we are in our thirties, so what? life is good, we have done some fabulous things and if anything, have experiences from which we have learned. life is all about timing. have fun, do what you want to do, and don't worry about anyone else! when the time is right. things will happen for you that will change the path you are on right now. | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/9/2007 5:02:09 AM | i get so many people asking me this question. i am a 45 yr old woman and if i want to be single i will be. it is not that i want to be but meeting the right person is hard. i have a full life with my kids and my job and my home. i am waiting to meet my soul mate and if that takes the rest of my life so be it. my mother is the best one at asking that question. when are u going to find someone and get married. it is annoying to say the least.  | |

| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/9/2007 4:07:21 PM | Like most of you here I'm selective, independent and OK if I end up single the rest of my life.
I'm not looking for an opposite and it's hard to find a active athletic woman at my age (41). Out of those that are, we would have to click too so I may end up single for the rest of my life and I will enjoy the hell out if it anyway.
The only question for me is how many active athletic women are there at my age (41)? | |
|
| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/9/2007 5:25:09 PM | Fortunately, not many people asked me this question yet.. Guess it's because I look much younger than my actual age.. I have the freedom to go anywhere as long as I've got enough $$$ in my pocket, and I don't need to consult anybody's opinion if I want to pursue any interests. So far so good. I'm loving it.  | |

I suppose because women don't talk to me in the real world? They never message me on silly sites like this one...
O'well no big deal to me. :) | |
|
| so, why are you still single? Posted: 2/10/2007 12:25:02 AM | | i admire people more who are still single. It means you have never settled. It is better than saying you've been divorced three times? | |
