Why are YOU single?

Is there nobody whose answer is simply 'Because I want to be'? I'm married but I have to admit I think I'd be just as happy single. There seem to be advantages and disadvantages to both.
(Of course, probably if I were single again I'd soon start pining for a relationship. But I would be interested if anyone here is single just because they're happier that way).

I'm pretty close to because I want to be :)
Just not been bothered lately, got enough going on in life, don't need a man making things even more complicated :p
That's not to say if I met someone, I'd fob them off, just not actively looking for now.
 
Just asked my best mate and she says it's cos i'm too nice:o

I asked one of my best mates a while ago and he said "I was too laid back"! WTF?! He said I was too independent and I wouldn't really need a guy :(

I don't think I'm high maintenance but I'm open with how I feel (I'm not a "it's fine!" girl, I'm a "you promised you'd be here an hour ago and so I'm ****ed off" kinda girl :p ) so I don't know why :(
 
Ignore that.. I missed a page of replies...

Edit*
I could in one way say I'm single because I want to be because it's half right..
I don't have the money to get into a relationship really.

but the reality is what I've posted already..
Not for the ****ing lack of trying though. :mad:
I think the women in Cheltenham just have their noses rammed so far up their ass they wouldn't know a nice bloke if it came up and slapped them (pun intended)
You can't even talk to women here without being looked down on.
Go to somewhere like Worcester and they come over and talk to you :eek:

Gaarr this thread compiled with the members other halves thread makes me feel like pap. Everything else about my life is brilliant. It just lacks the other half. Grrr. Even when I try I fail.

Im doing it wrong! :rolleyes:
 
I just remembered, I was not too bothered been single, but I don't want to be all my life, my flat mates, the 2 girls always try drag me to nightclubs and say I'll like it in there and I know I don't, they get excited about going out to nightclubs, that just does not happen to me, I have no interest in clubs what so ever, but these girls are the kind that make me hope all girls are not like it, one of em, everytime I see her, she is like..... "I need sex"... "I want sex"..."I'm gonna get sex tonight" etc... and it's like jesus out of control of what?, thats like every night:eek:, the other girl just ****** me off totally, always moans, always has a go at me, just a nightmare really. Then on a club ride with the cycle club, I was the youngest, all of em pretty old, said do ya go clubbing much? I said no, I cycle most of the time, thats what I do to have fun, they said, you don't see many girls then?, I said".... well.... ermmmmm.... yea sometimes... I guess..... :\", that got me thinking and kinda annoyed, maybe they are right :\.

I guess I'm the kind of guy that girls just don't like, I must have something in me that just pushed anyone away from me, thats maybe why I don't have friends too, they all seem to start taking the **** from the get go and it's like... wtf, I'm no different to them, so something about me makes people naturally not like me from the get go, very odd, yes I can be annoying and a prat sometimes but still, cant everyone?

Also I hate the fact that most people assume you are a geek if you play PC games, are on your PC more than 3 hours a day and also watch star trek, If they knew I watch startrek they'd be like... omg.... geek.... weirdo..... I hate the word geek, I'm not a geek :\, ok.. I'm abit of a cycling nerd actually but that's ok as it's fitness related.

cos im lazy, have no self confidence, generally don't care about the way i appear, and am about as interesting as a spec of dust

You've got a BMW now, surely that will attract the ladies? :p, even better if you get it on pimp my ride :D.

... they all seem to start taking the micky from the get go and it's like...

That's not always a bad thing, main thing all my mates and I do is take the micky out of eachother - it's all in jest and shouldn't be taken to heart :)

Although reversing an edit from a Don when they're doing you a favour won't help you one bit.
 
Shy and when in the position I struggle to make conversation. :/ It's not that I can't talk more that I don't know what to say. I just need to be more confident it's just putting it in to practice. :)

I do take most things seriously, that's probably stemmed from primary school when I was picked on then, and high school too, see if none of that happened I'd be a totally different person now. I wish I could have turned back time really, most of my previous years I've spent on my own, I don't do much, my birthday is just a normal day, don't have parties or anything, Christmas, don't do anything much, pretty naff young years really, I'd say I get on with older people more now and my flatmate's do say I act like some middle aged person now :\.

Anyway, I reckon I'll never get a girlfriend, something I dread when I'm even older, ending up an old man, always being single, sends shivers down me spine that.
