Posted: 6/11/2006 4:38:29 PM | | This question is getting old...everyone keeps saying that they just want me to meet the right person, of course thats what I want but people feel the need to tell me. I guess it's all about meeting the right person, I've been in a couple long term relationships but something always ends it...I guess I'll know when it happens! Single for a reason and okay with that...wish my family and were okay with it as well | |

Posted: 8/5/2006 6:25:26 PM | Why not? People these days get married thinking that person is the one they'll spend their life with. Over 50% end in divorce because of incompatibility, infidelity, abuse, financial problems. The list goes on. Whats wrong with being single and just having friends or dating.
When I see couples arguing, calling each other names. I'm thankful that I'm still single. | |

Posted: 8/7/2006 6:39:34 PM | Just looking for a woman who likes Classical music, Jazz, Reggae, and the Beatles.
And she's a non-smoker, and confident too.
Not very much to ask for. Seems like to some I'm asking the world. | |

Posted: 8/7/2006 7:08:10 PM | | Because a 49 y.o. witch who's a voluptuous, tattooed, pierced redhead with hair down to her ass scares the shit out of most men in my area? Or maybe it's just I'm picky....and proud of it? | |

Cause I won't settle?
Seems a good reason for me. Sure I could have settled for my ex 5 years ago and hated her guts by now, which I why I broke it off after 2.5 years. Nevermind I should have left her for at least 2 other women (never cheated!) but didn't.
Been basically single since 2000, dated on and off, spent most of my time single however.
I'm the process of solving my "issue" and this site hasn't helped me one bit, but this was a fluke thing anyway and I have used other sites with more sucess.
First post, most likely the last one as well. | |

Posted: 8/8/2006 3:27:06 AM | I have just come back to the real world from being a monk.
They don't let monks have partners... so now I'm not a monk I'm looking again...
Just not too hard though because I have learnt to appreciate my own company now after so long in seclusion...
Peace. | |

Posted: 8/8/2006 3:58:47 AM | | I am sure a lot of women hear it. I have. I am just not willing to settle for mediocre, uninteresting, uninterested, passive aggressive, emotionally unavailable, immature or many other personality flaws. I don't think I am perfect by any means but I am not going to settle. It isn't 1940 where everyone is expected to be married right out of high school and having 3 or 4 kids in the few years that follow. There is nothing wrong with waiting for the "Real Mr. Right". | |

Posted: 8/8/2006 7:23:48 AM | I hear a great deal of this sort of thing from my father's or even my grandfathers generation.
The reason I'm single is that I grew up and lived through three generations of manhaters hiding thier man hating under the skirts of the feminist movement. The single life was a far better option | |

Posted: 8/8/2006 9:52:28 AM | | You are not the only person to hear that! I wish I had a dollar for everytime I hear it! I could have a vacation in the Bahamas!!! Like some of these other people, the idea of going through a divorce is unbearable, and we all know the stats on how marriages work out these days. I'm happy being on my own, following my own schedule & doing what I please. Plus, the right guy hasn't asked! | |

Posted: 8/8/2006 1:28:49 PM | | Relax. The older you get, the fewer people ask you that question. They're too embarrassed to. And it's a compliment if guys are asking you that question. It's not like they're thinking "I KNOW why she's single." | |

Posted: 8/9/2006 7:38:26 PM | | I've heard it enough. and I hate it even more when my doctors keep on insisting to settle down and have children, because I'm getting old...Yeah, sure doc, I'll get right on that! I'll go find a man tomorrow and get pregnant right when I'm in the middle of trying to get my post grad degree! I mean hello - not everyone wants to be married and have children! | |

Posted: 8/19/2006 6:02:38 PM | Honestly, I think it's about timing and being ready. I have met the right people at the wrong time and the wrong people at the right time and now am just waiting to meet the right person at the right time.
Of all the men and women that I know who waited a little longer to get married (and have been happily married for eons) - they all have said the same thing - when it's right, it's right and you just 'know" and that it won't happen until you are truly ready for it.
Since I haven't yet had that instinct that it's right, I am trusting that it will happen when it does and in the meantime I am making sure that I do my personal work so that I can be 'ready' when it happens.
As for answering the friends and family - I just tell them that I am in love with an alien from another planet who promised to come back for me in the year 2050. That usually shuts them up pretty quick! | |

Posted: 8/19/2006 9:42:22 PM | I get this question alot...but it doesn't bother me. I accept it as other people's limitations, since the vast majority asking it are not Happily married either! They obviously settled - in the belief that you have to get married.
I am trying to be the right person, instead of looking for the right person. My life is blessed, and I have love surrounding me. Would I enjoy having a partner to share it with? Of course, or I wouldn't be here. But I am happier alone than in a bad relationship, and because I have a lot to give, and have done a lot of work on myself, I have high expectations for the man who wants to share the journey. Is the man who balances emotional intelligence with intellectual ability out there? | |
