| so, why are you still single?
Posted: 4/5/2008 4:35:20 AM | I am not single. I am widowed.
I am without partner at present because
I haven't found someone I want to be with,
who thinks the same about me
and who's lifestyle meshes with mine.
I've no interest in getting married again but
long term monogamy is possible.
I don't consider committed relationships
to be in the category of 'single'. | |

Posted: 4/5/2008 9:26:27 PM | omg i get this asked CONSTANTLY....

Posted: 4/5/2008 9:29:42 PM | I know Im still single because finding an honest woman who truly wants love & a real relationship is like finding a needle in a haystack. I had it once so I know it exists, but it seems the older I get the harder it is to find anyone who takes dating seriously anymore. Just a bunch of unanswered emails & game players.
Still, I tread on....hopefully I wont be single forever. | |

Posted: 4/5/2008 9:37:29 PM | I'm still single because it's hard to find the right guy for me. I've been through a lot and have a mental list of what I will and will not put up with and anything less than that is just unacceptable to me. When you're older and more mature, you usually know what will make you happy and it's better to wait for the right person than being in a relationship with someone you can't stand and/or treats you awful. Who needs that!

Posted: 4/5/2008 9:44:16 PM | | Why would anyone feel the need to be saved by anyone? Only a very weak willed person would look to another person to save them. I am single i guess because like most people out there the serious relationships i have had for one reason or another did not work out. I would love to find someone again and to find love , but if it never happens then i will be just fine. Thankfully i am not so foolish that i need someone to save me or to complete me. | |

Posted: 4/5/2008 9:55:07 PM | | I have social phobia or just don't care and don't have the normal urges. Not sure, which one. I think both! And rejecting any interest also doesn't help, lol. | |

Posted: 4/6/2008 2:38:15 AM | | Its my choice, I admit there are times when I would like the whole relationship package...But on thinking about it I enjoy my freedom and can meet people when I want to and do what I want...I dont like the idea of being restricted...maybe selfish but If I was to find the right man he would have to think the same way... | |

Posted: 4/6/2008 2:55:45 AM | Thank goodness! Thought I was the only one getting this nerve-racking question. Well, just like some have said, I just haven't met that person/soulmate, that I would like to be with very-long-term.
I'd like to add that it's worse when this question comes in tandeem with a "compliment" e.g. why is a good looking "woman/man" like you still single? 
So do I say "thanks, I don't know"? Usually insecurities tend to pop out screeming "what do you mean by .... do you think there's something wrong with me?"...
But then, I quickly remind myself that it's a "cliche" question out of nothing better to say! So, I bite my tongue and wait....

Posted: 4/6/2008 9:27:15 AM | Imaniey2,
admit it, the question
"what do you mean by .... do you think there's something wrong with me?"... pops into our head quite often, when faced with that question.
Just yesterday, I had a great day out running errannds. Got hungry and walked into a not-to-benamed Australian restaurant for a good Steak. I asked the girl for a table for one, and she looked at me, like I was an alien from another planet.
She barely was able to stumble out, that they have seating at the bar, and you can get food there , too. Well, if I wanted to sit at a bar, I would go to a pub, right? If I want a nice, juicy Steak, I like to sit at a table and enjoy my feast. I didn't say that, just walked out and felt sorry for myself for an hour or so.
It happens, we are humans. | |

Posted: 4/6/2008 11:16:33 AM | | I am single because for being with the right one is everything I dont want to be with just anyone for the sake of not being alone,, I take care of mysef and I put it up to God for me to be with the right person,, yes I understand he isnt going to fall from the sky,, I am just not in a hurry to be tied down, just hang in there and you will find the right one ,, but remember age is a # | |

Posted: 4/6/2008 2:38:45 PM | I'm single because I've never been attractive enough for the ladies... That's the long and short of it...
And before anyone says it no I'm not talking negative about myself or asking for pitty. I don't think of myself as ugly but I'm wise enough to realise after all these years of being dateless that I lack the physical attractive appeal that women seek.
People say looks don't matter but that's the boldest lie ever told!
Now the attractive men might not be able to keep the ladies but the ladies sure will date an alcoholic, abuser, drug addict, cheater, you name it, but won't give someone like me a second glance.
I tried the online thing with several sites for many years under the stupid misconception that it would provide a different result than real life. However, after hundreds of nicely worded messages, not any of those "U R Hot" short stuff like so many of you women get. I spent time writing and carefully reading the profiles always to have my messages deleted and unansered altogether... I was never rude but yet I was rudely ignored!
So, I just gave up...Life has been so much better not having to deal with the struggle of trying to get a date that is never going to happen... | |

Posted: 4/6/2008 4:58:53 PM | I know, i hate that question. I don't want to be single. i do want to re-marry. another question i hate is why did i have a devorce? like i did something. then i get asked if its because i don't put out. UNREAL that some one would ask that but i get that from men that has never been married.
its not always the womans fault, not always the mans. sometimes it is boths fault. i hate being judged for being a devorced person when some stranger does not know the facts. | |

I dont mind needy people, my existence is built on healing and helping others become stronger. If i am put into someones life i will do whatever i can to help them either overcome an obstacle, or be less needy.
Bring on anyone with a burden of the world on their shoulders, I can lift 10 worlds.
my real name literally means "Mighty Protector" and i live up to my name
compassion itself seems far removed from your statements....

Posted: 4/7/2008 4:00:40 PM | | No compassion is not removed from my statements. It is not an act of a compassionate person to keep another person dependant on them. I don't need someone to save me and i would not let someone else save me. The only person that can save me is me. You may think that you are being compassionate and saving another person but in reality you are only causing them to become dependant on you. That is not a compassionate act. | |

Posted: 4/7/2008 6:18:55 PM | | dear lady, nothing in my statement signified that i would encourage a person to be needy and stay dependent on me. | |

Posted: 4/8/2008 11:17:09 AM | I hate that question. I wont even indulge a man with a response. 
A trick question if ever I heard one | |
|

Posted: 4/9/2008 12:14:44 AM | Because I hate everyone. I just got of prison. I punch everyone I love to see if they're really committed. I just escaped from an insane asylum. Women hate when I burn their panties and offer them a leaf to cover themselves. I'm ugly. I'm too short. I'm not the right skin color. I'm not funny enough. I'm too serious. I'm crazy. I'm too manly. I eat too much meat/chicken. I have no real goals. I daydream too much. I'm frugal. I don't spend enough money. I don't make six figures. I don't put up with anyone's bullsh!t. I hate cats. I prefer childless women. I'm not looking for marriage. I place an emphasis on having fun while having sex. I can't dance. I hate clubbing and bar hopping. I like drinking alone. I'm a cave man/gorilla. I'm too angry. I don't give a sh!t. My profile is not "appeasing." I won't eat white bread. I don't drink cola, white tea or coffee. I hate Oprah.
Just pick one. I can add more if you want. | |

Posted: 4/9/2008 12:53:44 AM | hardcandy,

I see what its done to you...what it could potentially do to alot of us.
oh..its 4am here too.... | |

Posted: 4/9/2008 1:15:21 AM | I can't sleep either, dude. I guess that's another reason why I'm single; insomnia.
Sad part is that those reasons (real & imaginary) are the only things I can come to, because as we all know, only about 1-5% of email messages sent out get returned. Only once has a woman's reply been, "I'm just looking for something different." She did like my sense of humor, though. Too bad I can't jerk off to that.
In reality, the main reason I'm single is due to the fact that I've given up for the time being. Like that other guy, Topgear1 said before,
So, I just gave up...Life has been so much better not having to deal with the struggle of trying to get a date that is never going to happen..
I don't know about better, but right now at least less stressful. | |

Exactly... I've got better things to do than pick apart reasons to not answer a private message... | |

Posted: 4/11/2008 1:08:59 PM | I am single because dealing with me takes expertice--so far most guys are still practicing | |

Posted: 4/11/2008 1:17:31 PM | Good question!
I am single because I tend to meet guy's who need a "mommy" not a relationship. Someone just to be there to take care of them,make sure they are fed,have clean clothes,have someone clean up after them too. I also meet the one's who are total opposites from me for example: gambling,drinking, extreme jealousy problems.
Or could be the fact I have kid's, I can't come and go when I please as I have kid's to take care of and are first on my list. | |
