Posted: 6/5/2007 8:08:15 AM | I'm still single because I haven't found the right person yet...whoever that is..lol. I can also be very picky.
I think most of the time its women who get the weird looks when it comes to being single and in their 30's. Some people still think we need to be married to be happy. Others believe that if you are not married or in a relationship then you will automatically be lonely. I know people who are single and who are not lonely. It all depends on how you view life and what you make of it.
Now when it comes to me I am a little bit lonely, but not so lonely that I am willing to take anyone that comes along..lol | |

Posted: 6/5/2007 11:11:53 PM | I'm single because I've always had a career and life path that has kept me on the move with a lot of travel even as I have a home base to come too and land ... being away from home for extended periods of time does not bode well for maintaining a relationship much less having an opportunity to actually see what might develop as I first meet someone ... the way that I've structured my life creates its own irony because, as I'm on the move and I really REALLY love what I do, I've had an opportunity to actively engage and experience an amazingly broad and dynamic life that leaves me feeling full and alive ... it would be a hard thing to put on the back shelf.
also, I suppose that I have set high standards where potential partners are concerned ... but I do so knowing that I have placed very high standards for myself, how I live my life and what I put out too others ... guess that makes me a bit of a freak.

Posted: 6/5/2007 11:40:23 PM | I pretty much get fed up with a lot of people asking me that question.
I'm single because I can be. I love my freedom, my independence, my space.
I'm 33 and can say I'm happy with being single. I have less drama and can come and go as I please.
Life couldn't be better. | |

Posted: 6/6/2007 11:26:04 AM | There's lots of potential reasons why I am still single:
But who really honestly cares why? I don't! I will not stand for being thought of as some sort of dysfunctional old-maid just because I am single, ya know?
I use what the good Lord blessed me with for my own good and I dont expect for anyone to hate on me for what I don't have. | |

Posted: 6/6/2007 3:49:02 PM | | I'm single because of the situation I'm in. I moved here just over a year ago, not knowing anyone. It took awhile to get my feet planted in the ground. I've meet a few nice women , but not the one yet. So I'm still looking. I'm single, but not by choice. | |

Posted: 6/11/2007 12:57:28 AM | When I was in my 20's, and was asked if I was married, my reply of I haven't found the right person yet was always accepted. In fact, I was congratulated on being samrt enough to wait.
Now that I am in my 30's, my same answer is normally given a grimace. Often the look is followed by the comment," maybe, I am just to picky".
Well, if picky is not wanting a person with a drug or alcohol addiction, then I am.
If picky is wanting someone who works, then once again, I am just too finicky.
Now with that little rant out of my system, my follow up question is:
Why is it that since I have never been married, some people think there is something "wrong" with my character? | |

Posted: 6/11/2007 8:04:53 AM | I was in a crappy marriage ( not pointing fingers, honestly ) and now that I am single I am reminded on my college roomate's bumper sticker ( he was taking aviation )
" it is better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air , than in the air wishing you were on the ground" I now am waiting for the perfect one, and do not care who has a problem with it. | |

Posted: 6/11/2007 8:38:42 PM | I'm single because I'm bored, but I'm bored because I'm single!
The solution to the boredom and singleness is to find someone to NOT be bored and single with. | |

Posted: 6/12/2007 2:18:49 PM | Why am I currently single? Well, let me tell ya. I was sentenced to eight years of marriage that ended in a train wreck on a bay bridge with a tsunami coming in, and after being there, doing that, and having the scars, I'm enjoying living my life for myself.
Not that I don't have people I love--I do. It just isn't the same deep-down parasitic infection that my marriage was on my life and who I was.
I might meet someone I'd be willing to take a ride on the marriage wheel with again. I might not. Either way, it's all good, because I'm happy with myself, and whatever happens I'm the one person I have to live with.  | |

Posted: 6/13/2007 11:04:24 AM | | Sorry, FayeVerte, you're not "still single" like many of us. You've been married and are now divorced. There is a difference. | |

Posted: 6/13/2007 3:55:44 PM | emm now thats an easy question to answer...
for the last three years i have been at uni ( no time for a relationship) ironically the one i did have at the time broke up because i started going to uni ( he could handle me coming back with new thoughts and ideas and didnt want to grow with me.
now with only a few weeks of un i left i have realised that i want a man that looks like Dr Christian Troy ( off nip and tuck) and with a mind not unlike my uni lecturer...
and the patience of a saint... can see i will be single for a few more years lol | |

Posted: 6/13/2007 10:46:54 PM | Because I can't find a method for meeting women. Ya, I know you might say go to a bar..... but I don't like that scene. I'm not a bar boy. I am not in college and don't have any co-workers as I am self employed and work alone. Don't know any people and don't seem to belong to any "social circle". I have always tended to be knid of off to the side in any social scene. I guess people pick up on that and stay away.
I've been online for a time, but nobody here ever meets in person. Seems like nobody has interest in meeting because it's too risky, or maybe women here have no desire to meet because they can play more easily online. HOwever it is I have not been able to date. Seems like nothing works. Maybe bad place, wrong time, or maybe the forces that be are against me. Don't know, just tired of a boring ride, no bites. Seems like nothing ever changes. That's what leads to mental deadening. Lack of progress. I'm afraid I will digress and loose interest in dating altogether. If that happens I will go back to being a bored person and a geek, who is more interested in his hobbies than in human interaction. | |

Posted: 6/13/2007 10:53:19 PM | I'm still single cause I choose to be single. having a relationship or getting married doesn' t interest me anymore like it did in the past.
I am a happy man and I devote much of my time to family-friends-work- and my hobbies.

Posted: 6/14/2007 7:21:08 AM | | I just haven't met the one that can bring out those sparks. At this point in my life it would take someone extremely special to sweep me off my feet. | |

Posted: 6/14/2007 7:44:55 PM | I've been single since my senior year in high school. That's 14+ years. I just always used to feel more at peace by myself. I didn't like all the drama that my girlfriends brought to my sphere of influence (again, high school...go figure). I also had relatively low self esteem, which didn't help matters any. After a while, being single just felt natural. I've had several female friends over this span always telling me that I'm such a great guy and they want to see me happy with that special someone. I've always been a late bloomer though. Didn't even start driving until I was 25 years old. Over the last 5 years or so, I've undergone some changes. My social skills have improved dramatically. I'll never be a social butterfly, but I can actually function in groups now. I'm more outgoing and willing to let things loose. I've also just recently started sticking to a regular diet and exercise routine which has improved my body image (I've lost 35 pounds since the beginning of March) and, in turn, my self esteem as a whole. I've been trying these dating sites for the last couple years with no luck. I usually have a window around the onset of summer when I start thinking about finding someone. That's usually met with little success and I hibernate for another year. Oddly enough, I've had much better luck on here, so we'll see...

Posted: 6/18/2007 12:54:08 PM | | I don't bother to go into detail anymore. I just look them in the eyes and say, hmmm...i don't know, maybe it's the hairy hump on my back! That usually shut's them up. | |

Posted: 6/19/2007 4:11:35 PM | | I think most of us have heard that before - the way I see it, the older you get, the pickier you are, because you have more life experience and you are more aware of what you want and need. Your responsibliities are not what they were when you were 20ish either. | |

Posted: 6/19/2007 6:59:49 PM | Man, I wish I could attach to a handsome fella who seems normal and someone I enjoy spending time with! If you're out there...please message me - I haven't found you anywhere! LOL! 
I'm single because I either seem to find the ones who need me for a short time to get over someone else, or am found by creeps who don't even realize they're beginning to stalk me. | |
