Why? Is it by choice? Or have you had a string of bad luck? Is it always their fault or yours since you are single? Or a mix of both?

I'm single because I have chosen this for now. I have not had a date since December. I had a GF last year from December to May, but I took that as long as I could take it and it was not a good match for me.

From 06-08 I was in a perfect relationship and I really had my soulmate. However, the woman was 37 and had no kids. She really wanted one. I already have two kids who are still pretty young and I was not ready to have another kid at the time. So I had to let her go so she could be with some man who wanted a kid with her. She has one now and I am happy for her.

In any case, I notice people bicker here and make some claim that we single ones are miserable because somehow being single has been bestowed on us because we are evil people or something.

I just wanted to say that I enjoy being single. It gets lonely at times, but it's better than being in something that is not fun or even going on a fury of dates. I can wait for that. I had my fury of weekend romances last summer during baseball season. I guess when I'm ready, I'll be ready. I like my individual freedom right now and I need some extra time for myself.

So that is why I am here, in these forums. To hang out, have a solid discussion, smile a bit, tell people how wrong they are lol, and of course flirt around a bit---innocently of course. I'm into short distance relationships and I don't have the heart of a LDR, but anything is possible if the wind is right.

I'm single because of me. I am a "people pleaser" therefore I tried to become what my significant other wanted. Several months later I would become unhappy. I would lose myself, then subconsciously blame my man for not allowing me to be myself. It has taken me 3 years of being single to see it.

I have spent the last few years with the attitude of..."Single? I'm not single. I have a longstanding relationship with fun and freedom." Now I have decided that there is a possibility that I can be "me" while being an "us". :) The only thing is....finding a man that can handle "me"! lol

I am single by choice. I like my freedom and independence. I do what I want when I want. On est mieux seul qu'etre mal accompagne! translated=You are better off being alone than in bad company. Thank you.

bob1959: You're insight into my persona is uncanny. Thank you for your patient, helpful advise. It is people like you and your thoughtful understanding of the human condition that make visiting the site so very helpful. Yours, Bob

There's no insight into your persona. Unlike you, I do not read hidden meanings into people's posts (except for your condescending and sarcastic words). It is exactly what you said in one of your earlier posts tongue

Because I am not actively seeking, or searching to become un-single, if it happens, it happens.
