I am still single because I seem to meet a lot of women that are on and off again with their psycho ex boyfriends...

Still, I am not sweating it... I think its just a matter of time until I bump into one of the other fishies here and it all works out. :)

Why is being single a bad thing? :) Let's enjoy our freedom and enjoy the experience of meeting new people. Single doesn't = bad thing, it just means we are free to find the "mate" that best suits us.

Because people that value honesty & kindness get scared off when they find someone that is honest and kind!

I'm learning the hard way to avoid profiles that specify stuff like that.

My answer is:

I'm not "still" single — I'm single AGAIN!

There's a difference, see?

I haven't quite worked out why I'm still single. Maybe I haven't been trying hard enough.

Holy cheese and rice!

I only just became single.

Give me at least a year to think about and answer to that and if Im still single in three years I damn well should have a good answer.

Yeah, I get the same question alot. Im my case, I watched my brother go thru 5 wives, and now he's with his 6th ! I've also seen people who were married for 30 years get divorced. If 2 people want to be together, they will be, and thats how it is. You don't need the state or the church enter into your relationship to make it work. Apparently it does not make it work, and marriage is grounds for divorce from where im sitting.
You can spend the rest of your life with someone without actually being married to them, nothing supercedes real love. Now, If I was with a lady for say 5 years, and she desired me to marry her, I would do it just to make her happy, but I don't see the importantance of the paperwork really. Love is mandatory, paperwork is optional.

Its weird poeple still regard something wrong with you if your over 30 and still single. As I am pushing nearer 40 and tell people I am still single they look at me strangely. Even more so when I said I have never been married or had kids. Its not out of choice being single its just never meet anyone who can tick all the boxes. I still like my singledom but I guess I should call it my independence. Then maybe thats my mistake I want my cake and eat it. I guess i just have to find the man who will change my mind.

Oh God help me, anything I say here is going to show up in my profile !

Yea, right, the old, "why are still single" and (let's get some dirt on you while we're at it) trick , eh ? I'm not falling for that.

Oh, yes I'm still single cause I'm very 'clingy', oh did I say, "needy" wait, I meant, very loyal and commited.

In my case I am still single until the man that really can handle my children comes along. I'm finding a lot of guys say they love children and can accept the whole package but when it comes down to it, they treat the kids like crap. I won't settle for that. I wouldn't treat their kids any different than my own.

Because fearlessness at work and fearlessness in love are two very different things.

guys keep asking me why i'm still single

They may ask this as a compliment, stating that men must be crazy not to want to date you or be your boyfriend. Men who say this to me I ask, "Well are you interested in me" and they react in horror quickly stating that if they weren't married, blahblahblah. You know, they may be asking to see if you are gay (which would pique their interest) , if there's something wrong with you or just saying the equivalent of 'nice shirt, where'd you buy it'. It is just conversation, nosiness, a compliment or something to talk about . Don't take it seriously.

Does it matter what strangers think of how you live your life?

Seriously.

I'm still single because modern day dating has gotten downright scary.

People that worry about what others might think, or people that can't think for themself, and ask others to do their thinking for them.

A lot of people making moutains out of mole hills. Dating shouldn't be in competition with NASA to have the most rocket scientists!

Here in the forums alone, I've seen hundreds of "should I (do whatever)" , "should I give him/her a chance?" , "Should single parents give men/women that haven't been married a chance?"

Borrowing from the Nike slogan "JUST DO IT" There's a 50% chance it works and a 50% chance it doesn't.

I see so many people focused on the negatives of dating & romance in the forums too. How to tell he/she's a player, cheating games, how to lose a man/woman in whatever amount of time.

With all these people on here doing stuff like that, it's the same people that are out and about in the real world, that I as a single guy has to weed through to find one that isn't so focused on so much negative stuff, and can hold a thought of their own.

I'd rather set here single and wish I had someone to share life together with, than be WITH someone that is so worried about how others would think of her for being with me and WISH that I was single again.

Who cares what others think about who you are with. The only person that I'm concerned about caring is the person that I'm with!
