Michael211_2000: I've never had one, so I wouldn't really know I guess. It would be nice to have someone special to buy for for Valentine's Day though.

you have never had a longterm girlfriend or wife??
I have always had to many people around me. Lonely is a pleasure. If I need not to be lonely I just pick up the phone. What I miss is laughing with someone. I miss the moments of silence and knowing there is peace between us.

OK - remember , you asked.
No, given the mates I had, (an ex husband and a post divorce ex boyfriend)in the only two LTRs in my life, no. I do not miss having a mate.
Both men were contentious & difficult with poor to no listening skills. Both were extremely self-centered and absolutely HAD to have their own way. (like it was a male perogative). Neither one ever really knew very much about me - or spent very much time with me voluntarily, neither ever knew what I like, how I think, what I am really like on the inside. Neither were, therefore, especially good attentive lovers. So, no.
So even when I was their partner, I was alone. That's the lonliest feeling of all.
So now, ya, sometimes it does get lonely. But I don't have to be afraid any more.

No, not even short-term. Dates are very very rare, often with years going by without a single dinner and movie date.
I've been called "too negative" (among other things!) on here by some people... what do they think I got this frustrated with the situation overnight or something?

just curious why dates are rare? are you too picky or just no women there?

If you want different results - perhaps you need to change. You are the only consistent thing in all these years that has gotten the results that you've achieved thus far. I've seen the same general "poor me" attitude in almost every post that you've made - its not attractive in the least. So if you are the same in real life, perhaps you need to change? Hitting your head against a brick wall only goes so far, the blood you shed should be a wake up call to perhaps not do it anymore.
Perhaps ask your friends to be honest with you, say what they like or don't like about you. Ask them why they think that you don't get dates. A good hard look at ourselves isn't always pleasant, but sometimes necessary to motivate us in a different direction.

Michael, I'm usually pretty upbeat. So, if someone tells me I'm being negative, I simply put it back on them and ask them to show me something positive.
Ya know, I'm the one who says what everyone else is already thinking....
The ones who accuse me (and maybe you, also) of being too negative are often the ones causing the problems or making the mistakes that they don't know how to fix. They're defensive, therefore.
Fixating on criticizing my attitude (or yours) is not a proactive solution.
