Posted: 2/26/2007 10:04:47 AM | I think I've actually beome more committment phobic as I've got older. . . . . . I never used to be.
After the last long term relationship ended, I didn't want to date anyone. Since then I've rebuilt a single life for myself. It would have to take someone very special to make me want to comprmise it nowadays. | |

Posted: 2/26/2007 10:33:52 AM | i get asked that alot. but having been engaged 7 times in my life [and never married], my usual response is:
"marraige is a wonderful institution, but i'm not sure if i wanna be institutionalized." | |

Posted: 2/26/2007 3:46:43 PM | I have to agree.
I have been engaged twice now with no actual marriage. Maybe I am just getting to comfortable being by myself.
The odd thing is after my last relationship hit the bricks I found that I am a little gunshy about getting involved with somebody. It is very wierd, I mean even on a website like this one I may find somebody I want to send a messege to but then I "chicken" out. Wow...I am a lousy fisherman I guess.... | |

Posted: 2/26/2007 11:39:04 PM | | I don't know why, it has been so long since I have actually had someone that I could call "girlfriend" and since then it has been a lot of meetings and flings, but nothing ever serious, just don't know why I can't find someone to get serious with, but not like right away...lol | |

Because I am too young to get married yet (44).
That kind of answer will fix them! Recommended reply for use by anyone, man or woman, from 18 to 88.  | |

Posted: 2/27/2007 1:13:00 AM | | My friends and family don't ask me that anymore, since most of them have been through the ringer at one time or another, it's usually the people on here I hear that from. I hate that question along with "so what are you looking for" to be a smart ass I say it's because I'm a grumpy old **stard. | |

Posted: 2/27/2007 2:26:10 PM | I wonder if it's a society thing?
People are far more independent, we have far more lifestyle choices, more career options, more equality, more disposable income and we can indulge ourselves in so many ways. Do we really need the same levels of committment in relationships nowadays?
I'm just wondering if post war attitudes and nuclear family concepts have reached there sell by dates? | |

Posted: 2/27/2007 10:16:08 PM | I am still single because 3 years ago I split with my ex of 6 and a bit years. 5 months after that I became pregnant with my daughter. So I spent two years being pregnant and getting to know my little one. In the past year I have dated. One person for about 5-6 months. So I dont really think me being single is big deal. I will come across the right person when I least expect it or....he is right under my nose and I will figure it out 
So thats my excuse... | |

Posted: 3/2/2007 5:48:12 PM | | because no one has been able to understand me yet or if they did then it was a flat out refusal to unconditionally accept me. although the way i normally tell it is because "i'm too swift on my toes to get caught up with them..." | |
|
| so, why are you still single?
Posted: 3/3/2007 1:04:54 AM | | Because I've taken care of people all my life. Now it's Terry-time. Honestly, just haven't found the one that makes me want to do the work . | |

Proposed replies to such question:
a) "I am stilll way too young (44)" (mentioned above)
b) "Because that's the way, aha aha, I like it"
c) "So, why are YOU still married or not single?"
d) "I am single, not alone"
e) "I am waiting for certain women I like to get divorsed so that I can marry one of them".
Cheers
My reason is (a). | |

Posted: 3/3/2007 7:07:38 PM | | I hate that question, lol. Because I am. No reason. I like my life, it is nothing to apologize for or even defend or justify. I don't need a reason for how I live my life. | |

| I am single
Posted: 3/3/2007 7:20:07 PM | Because I just started looking. I have been busy, travelling the world, volunteering, furthering my education, going on adventures....
This whole dating thing is my new big adventure and I am having a blast. I would continue to just date except... except I want sex. And I don't have sex outside a committed relationship. So, I am looking for something more stable so I can.. ya know... have it all! | |

Why are you still single?
* Gay marriage is illegal.
* My warden was an a-hole and would not give his consent. After waiting for me for 8 years, she eventually found another.
* Single? You think I'm single? Oh I'm sorry, did I forget to mention my wife again?
* I have yet to find the special partner that my pastor is willing to give his approval.
* I support polygamy and legally I can't get married to more than one, so I choose to not marry any, just to be fair to the others.
* Well it all started when I was a small child. One day at band camp... and just ramble on for about 20 minutes and ask "What did you ask again?"
* One of my personalities is married.
* Because I have issues.
* After four wives, I gave up. | |

Posted: 3/4/2007 10:17:47 AM | hmmm, why am i still single...i'm single because of a few reasons, take your pick...
1 - i live up in the sticks in ringtown, pa...the nearest big towns are about 20 miles away. i live too far from anyone not willing to travel and i'm limited right now.
2 - i'm not legally divorced yet...haven't been with my ex hubby since 3/03. but i did have a boyfriend from 9/03 until 6/05, we're still very good friends (not fwb).
3 - some people say that i'm too honest and too outspoken. i won't take no bs off of no one and like to get to know everyone (friends).
4 - i gained a few pounds since 11/06. only 15lbs so that's not that bad but i am planning on loosing it once the weather breaks with more walking again, i'm just limited to things with my arm....oh, and my tailbone as well, i need a pillow or towel for comfort...that was fractured twice...playing on a quad and getting thrown and slipping and falling on my butt from ice.
5 - i was involved in a car accident (victim) and just because i'm living a life of hell right now with suffering the financial and physical burden as a result of the accident guys look at me as either i'm out for the money (which i could care less about) or i'm not able to do everything that i like to do (limitations with left arm r.o.m)
so, think of what you want about me....i do have a heart of gold, i'm far from being a gold digger, i may have my limits with the use of my left arm, and i may have gained a few pounds but that doesn't make me such a bad person. just because i'd rather friends first, that's the way i've always been. a successful relationship is like a successful business...you have to start from the bottom and work your way up.
that's why i'm still single...........now, why are you still single? | |

Posted: 3/4/2007 7:47:03 PM | I was married once, got married at 20 and was divorced by 21.. I just turned 36, the kid is now 18 and I wonder now what. I've dated, but haven't been in a serious relationship since the marriage. I guess I was a little jaded for a while and when I finally realized that he didn't mater anymore..lol I got too comfortable with my independent not answering to anyone but myself lifestyle, (not that there is much of one) Anyway, I guess my thing is, there doesn't have to be a marriage at any age.. For me, what would be more important is just to have someone to share you day with, companionship and that occassional shoulder to lean on and a piece of paper is not required for that. There is absolutely nothing wrong with you enjoy life, no need to worry over that..  | |
