Poll: Why are you Single?

[Zosephine]

I've got a combination of the answers, but the main reason is never asked/never been asked. I don't really trust anyone who I know enough to be in a serious relationship with them.

Well, anyone I do trust on that level is gay and therefore out of the question.

Ummm... solutions, solutions... I've started working out for half an hour every weekday morning (freshman fifteen became freshman forty once I stopped dancing). Hopefully that will change my figure and make me more confident!

I'm a little tired of these constant threads of "Why are you single" or "Do you have a girlfriend" designed to make those of us who are single feel like crap because we don't have a boyfriend/girlfriend. There is no excuse for why you do or do not have a boyfriend/girlfriend beyond you're too much of a wuss to actually try. Any other excuse is just that: an excuse.

Jesus this thread is depressing. On the plus side, I think this gets easier as you get older. The biggest fear I had as a teen was the rejection, but if people let you down easily, rejection really isn't so bad. And girls gain some maturity after they get out of their teens and become a lot nicer about it.

But maybe I'm not the right person for advice. I've been with the same girl for about 10 years now, so I don't exactly have my finger on the pulse of the singles scene.

 

[muffincakes]

im not, im married.

Damn. And I thought that I would get to be the first person on the eighth page to say that.


Also, what is this single that the OP speaks of? I am unfamiliar with the term/concept.

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

Being too ugly, and socially awkward, are my reasons for low self-esteem.

 

[thenoticeableshadow]

a combination of being too weird, having too low self-esteem and choice

 

[Kyrean]

Damn, no psychotic socially inept hermit option.....

Not kidding, got me a psychologist + psychiatrist and all....

 

[ShroomMinus]

Have loooads of girls hitting on me and some guys.
It is rather odd, but I'd rather be alone than with anyone aha.

 

[TheLefty]

Too much work. I need to really like a girl to go through that much work. That and high school just sucks it out of you.

 

[Sparrow]

OP: Does not compute...finding women is way too easy.

Yeah!

How comes there's no, "Single? I'm a freaking studmuffin, baby." option?

Its been renamed the "sexy welshman" option.

Ahh, truthful and specific to my own needs.

If only I could select it twice...

 

[Hollock]

I'm a giant pussy.

 

[The Aimless One]

I'm really picky, I mean REALLY picky.
Besides, right now ,I've just got too much on my mind.

But even if that weren't the case:
I'm WAY to picky.
There's lot's of interested girls/women....(at my age it's kinda dodgy )
........Apparently I'm very atractive to people who don't know anything about me :/

But in practice no-one ever seems to have the patience to try and actually catch/hold my attention for more then a minute or two.

EDIT: reading back what I wrote......kinda arrogant I guess........
oh well, it's the truth............ from my perspective anyway XD

 

[Sethzard]

I'm no good with people in general, at least I hate most of them, I also have low self-esteem, and I don't like conpany

 

[Gindil]

Picky and I got school. Girl wants me, they better have a goal other than "oh, I have to shop and I just want all of your time with nothing else to show for it"

And dangit, I like my vidjah games!

 

[blankedboy]

I'm fourteen, for christ's sake!

 

[Bat Vader]

I am single by choice. I don't see any real reason as to start dating. I may change my mind in the future or I may stay single throughout my entire life. Plus, the idea of letting someone get close to me is something I don't care for. I don't trust so easily.

 

[Reep]

Choice, im not the kind of guy who says stuff, or does things.

 

[grab_bag]

because i keep getting turned down.

 

[Frankfurter4444]

How about this one: There are no single women in my city.

Well if there are, I have no idea where they're hiding.

Seriously, it's like the women down here have the mindset, "if I'm not married by 25, my life is a failure." So they all get hitched to the first guy who shows them attention to avoid being single at 26. It's kinda depressing to see.

 

[AMMO Kid]

I asked the cutest girl I know out, and got totally rejected lol so it used to be that I couldn't find anybody, but now there is this girl who would obviously be my gf if I asked, but I don't like her all that much
