Posted: 6/29/2007 6:24:10 PM | | OMG- that and I can't believe you're still single are things I hear several times a week! I tell them I'd rather be happily single than settle for anything less than the perfect guy for me :) | |

It's because I am ugly, socially retarded and have poor personal hygene. I also prefer the company of sheep.
At least I don't have to feel so bad now about being the only one. | |

Posted: 6/30/2007 3:57:22 PM | | Who cares.....it will happen whenever it happens. The mind can be manipulated into thinking that is bad. Life is full of many scenarios we all deal with. Choices give us power. Some times you do not have a choice. I am tottaly neutral on this topic, because it truly should not matter. Flip that around and ask.....so what does it mean to be single? Probably means you are either crazy, or it means you are working on you, or it means you are broke and cant drive, or it means you live with mom in a 2 bedroom house, or it means you just broke up with someone, or it means you just got out of jail, or it means you live in a monestary, or it means you are a smurf.....basically...who the hell knows thats why we are all looking...well some of us are anyway....to much emphasis on silly questions that in the end, mean absolutely nothing. | |

Posted: 7/7/2007 1:05:13 AM | Why am I still single? Hmmmm. OK.
Am I the only one who thinks bars are pretentious? I outgrew bars before I was legally allowed in. Pretentious.
What is the divorce rate in Canada? 70% I heard.
Why is it that so many couples live together for years and when the day comes and they decide to get married it goes down hill and ends in divorce thereafter?
(For the record I am the product of an ugly divorce).
What is it about this whole marriage? It is about social status. No? Ask a proffessional about the matter.
It IS a crime today to be single. And most of this comes not from opinion but from shows I have listened to or books read on the matter. Social status has been around since we were walking on four legs. I hope I don't have to elaborate. (but will)
I believe that if I stay with POF I Will stay single. Sorry but this is not 'shopping'. This is life and it is for real. I believe that q & a is for long after the first meet. First we should see if we like spending time with that other person and that may take many outings. The questions should come after you fall in love not before. This is something I posted questions about long ago but Markus deleted them.
There is something definitely wrong with this system. How do you see the other's body language??
Why am I still single? Why are others unhappily married? And even worse why do they stay together if not happy? | |

Posted: 7/7/2007 1:24:04 AM | Deni30, you may hang yourself on that celebate rope if you are not carefull. Firstly please for your own sake get over her. And learn tolerance.
Well the idea of falling in love before you ask the questions but you can NOT do this thing like you are shopping for cars. The whole idea is to develop the relationship then work out the bump by ironing over them with tolerance. Today there is a lot less tolerance.
DAMN! My Dad decided to punch my mother repeatedly in the head when I was 4 yrs old because she made him the wrong sandwich. No it was not a good way of dealing with things but today he would have walked out the door and down to the lawyers office and file for divorce. Both of these things are totally totally UNACCEPTABLE.
Now if in both of these instances "tolerance" could have been exersized they Might still be together (but I hope not).
Why am I still single? Never mind the 70% divorce rate. But I wouldn't mind playing house with a brainiac. Even better an intelligent attractive brainiac with big heart.
One more thing: How the hell do you hook up without the body language or phermones?
And this question will be repeated in a sec to Markus only because he deleted it on me. | |

Posted: 7/10/2007 8:04:21 PM | Why, y ask y, drink bud dry? LOL... Ok look, fellas, you think being single is something to complain about, for me, its a bliss, ok sure, i dont get to see a child grow up, ok, for the time being i have money to buy games, digital cameras, etc... and saving in the bank, yes i save money. LOL. I wouldn't mind having a wife, and family, but for now, im totally cool with what I got.  I can't change what i am, or who i am, but i can at some time when i feel like it, change where i am going to go before its too late. I am only 35, and young at heart, never going to look back. and just like Billy Idol, i really am a prodigal son. I was set on my own and never looked back, and yes ive howled at the moon.... not gonna answer what happened next, LOL I cant tell you guys how lucky i am with my life, my dreams that keep me going. I will go forward in life and will be happy with whatever comes in my way. Keep smiling, if you're still single, just think about what you can do to NOT be single. dont be shy, go and speak to the one that catches your eye, do something silly, not crazy folks. just enough attention to see if the other person notices you, thats just half way getting a date. and be smart, people go by you, YES YOU!!!! not by your wallet, or um... you know , LOL but the real person for you will like you for YOU, YOU, YOU, and only YOUUUUU! ......... now, GET OUT THERE AND FIND YOUR FUTURE LOVE ONE!  | |

Posted: 7/11/2007 7:41:53 AM | | Im single cause women just cannot commit now days, its the old grass is greener over there thing with them. Also Ive been cheated on too many times. We live in a fast food society where everything is instant gratification and if you don't get what you want now then stuff it you go somewhere else and because of that mentality people don't work at relationships cause they think stuff it I'll find something else. Thats why Ive never been married, theres a 50% chance of failure and on those odds I don't bet. | |

Posted: 7/11/2007 8:44:24 AM | | I could write a novel as to why I am still single. Both personal and modern social reasons for it. However what it really boils down to is I have not found the right person yet. I am a great person with a heart of gold. One day my ship will come in!! | |

Well, that's 50pc probability of losing. Compare that with the odds of playing lottery.

Posted: 7/11/2007 6:28:58 PM | I'm like a few on here who just won't settle for less than the best. Its just a complete waste of time and energy to be with someone you are not 100% into because eventually those traits you settled for become big problems and you end up getting divorced and losing half of your assets and...well we all know the story. So, I can't say I'm happily single but I am miles from jumping off a bridge. The single time I view as a reloading phase. You take the time you used to spend on your significant other and put that toward a few personal obstacles in your life. Things like debts, yardwork, personal projects all of a sudden start showing signs of completion!
Just one way to look at it.
Oh, and hi. This is my first post.

Posted: 7/11/2007 9:34:17 PM | Well....since you asked.........................
I've met several women that I could live with,just haven't met that one person yet that I absolutely can't live without.If I'm going to tie the knot,it's going to be because of undeniable true love,not some arrangement for the sake of convenience.I value my privacy too much to settle for someone just to be married like most everyone else my age.I enjoy being single and having freedom to come and go as I like.
I have found out on several occasions that once I get into a relationship for a few months,I start to look for flaws in these women and began tearing them down in my mind,looking for reasons to break it off.I'm not sure if it's a fatal character flaw(fear of commitment) I have,or I've just been with the wrong people. | |

Posted: 7/12/2007 7:59:20 AM | To me it's about timing, place and feeling. Timing, if you just stepped in some crap barefooted and you run into that special someone, romance or engaging deep conversation won't be you 1st thought or hers. Place, scuba diving, jumping out an airplane having you or having your prostate examination, another special moment where potential is low. Finally feeling, sometimes your mind just isn't on romance or hers so trying to make something happen that is not 'there' is unlikely to happen. There are people that can 'wing it' in these type of situations, but remember it takes 2.
Bottom line, is I think it happens unplanned. Because if there is too much planning it is unnatural. It's like getting a runners 'high' you don't get it every time you run nor can you 'plan' it. But when it does happen it feels great. javascript:smilie(' ')
In addition, what's wrong with being single? Every person in this world is not destined to be married just like every single person in the world is not necessarily going to be a good parent.
Not saying that you should not try (it's natural). But don't beat yourself up because that perfect alignment of the planets happened and you happened to be asleep.javascript:smilie(' ')
Good luck javascript:smilie(' ') | |

Posted: 7/12/2007 9:50:14 AM | I get asked the same question. It bothered me at first then I realized everytime I WAS with somebody, they always treated me like crap. They were always too "busy" or some stupid reason why they couldnt call me or chat with me or whatever. At first it really bothered me and I figured it was my fault. Now, I really dont give second chances. hmmm, maybe thats why I am still single. I just dont want to be the clingy girl worryin about guys that could care less about me cuz it drove me nuts. Stick with the Gay guys, theyre always there for you and tell you the truth, they even tell you what guys really do want and what they are thinking. Straight ones have too much pride to say whats on their mind anyways. | |

Billy Idol? Man, I wonder if the girls from the younger generation even know who he is. I saw him in concert in 1984 and back then parachute pants were all the rage. Anyway, my brother and I were on the floor standing on the back of fold-up chairs, which is what everyone on the floor did. This woman in front of me with her boyfriend was wearing a tight pair of parachute pants. She kept falling backwards and for most of the night I had to keep her up by her butt cheeks.
I guess that night I wasn't just "dancin' with myself, uh uh!, dancin' with myself".

Posted: 7/14/2007 3:25:44 PM | | why??? Because of my children. Raising them and dealing with my ex-wife take a tremendous emotional toll on me. Makes it nearly impossible to devote the energy required to make a long term relationship work. It would take an extremely patient and understanding woman to break through the wall. | |

Posted: 8/14/2007 3:40:03 PM | I'm beginning to really wonder why....I must be weird. I've met some really interesting, and cute guys...but thus far, nothing. Maybe I'm old school, but I really like it when a guy calls me to go out. I make it obvious if I'd like to go out, and make suggestions on things we could do. Yet here I sit.  | |
