He says he chooses to be single

at this stage of my life i'm choosing to be single. what it means is that i'm not looking to get involved in a serious relationship. if i were dating the right girl casually i shouldnt feel pressured into commitment, its something that should come naturally

A person, either man or woman, can only choose to be single if they have someone out there who wants to date them or get into a relationship with them.

A person, either man or woman, can choose NOT TO DATE OR SEEK A RELATIONSHIP which is independent of whether anyone out there actually wants to get into a relationship with them or not.

^^^Most of us can think of someone in our lives we could date just to say we're dating or to avoid being single. But where the "choose" part comes in is when we're not looking to date just anyone, but we'd instead rather be single if there's no one out there we're gaga about, and vice versa.

I also feel that some people just like being single, and have decided against lukewarm relationships because they weren't worth getting into...I think even the most pigheaded stubborn bachelors/bachelorettes would consider changing things if someone came along that they really wanted.

Err..... guys are pretty straight forward. It's generally women that speak in code.

If we say we choose to be single, it means we don't want to be tied down. We're either enjoying having our fun with whoever, haven't met anybody we want to commit to yet, or in my case, are taking a break from the dating world altogether and are busy focusing on other things right now rather than women.

I'd just take it for what it is.

It means he likes being single.


First of all, I know men have a habit, especially when it comes to women, dating, "love", what-have-you, of double-speaking. They say one thing but it means something COMPLETELY different.

No. Not really, no.

To repeat, hell no.

Most guys mean what they say and we are fairly simple creatures. We may have complex hobbies and have done a lot but we are simple at heart. Doublespeak is what women do all the darn time and it annoys the hell out of most guys. We don't want to hear 3 minutes of oblique leading questions where we are supposed to read your minds to find out that you are hungry and want mexican food. A simple "Hey, I'm hungry for mexican" works wonders.

Some losers lie and say whatever it takes to get a woman into bed, but that is not doublespeak. It is called lying.

So getting back to what does he mean when he says he likes being single?
It means he likes being single. Duh.

In your life 95% of the heaven or hell you experience will be due to the choice of your mate.
Its much better to be single and lonely than married and lonely.
