diova: Being single don't make us less appealing or fit human beings. I'm quite happy in my singledom...
Diova, I believe there is a greater number of us now being single than being married. But for how long I am not sure. All I know is that most of us who had been through some stormy relationships are staying stronger and happier being single. I have learned so much about myself being single again. Of course, I got married when I was 30 and married for 30 years, but now that I am single again, is very productive and peaceful for me. I am happy just the same.
allthegoodnamest: Sorry Lindsy, but I don't believe you.
John so nice of you to drop by. I didn't even know this thread was going on for a while. Anyways, how are you?
Believing is not too important for me John, but of course, you have a reason and I leave you at that.
Anyways, you think I can be here and enjoying myself, had I stayed with that relationship? No ways. I would have been questioned on everything I write and even those that look at me while walking is my fault...
Now, John..I can do anything I want when I want it and how I want it and not minding what others have to say. But I don't hurt others, okay?
allthegoodnamest: That's so sad to hear, which leaves me to believe , that anyone who is happy being single , hasn't got any love left to give to the right person.
Are you kidding John? Now you are just being silly. I for one has a lot of love reserved to be for whom is deserving of that love...::bouquet:
Did some one say Bigoted female or women , Hmmm....Oh well . and the we know who we are, right so you know some who are or do you really know any of us , seems not or we just get put under a heading of ....and that's it .
then I wont go into detail of what some men are like and that's backed up by fact and real life , and with in family,
To the ? in hand .
married for 35 years 3 grown up children and 12 grand kids , life with my mate had its downs and up,s I'm glad we were together and Jos is Lovely ,
Being by myself I'm involved with music and our groups I still do things much the same as before with Jos though was not involved with our groups or music as I am now , though could have been the timing was not right at that time , and now it is ,
I'm quite happy by myself in many ways because I enjoy what we play and do, the issue would be in my case as music is very importaint to me would some one else be as involved and spend time with myself in playing and be involved with in our groups ,
I have read many files of others women only of cause , and very few play or would wont to be involved as I am , so this would to me be very hardas what I see is if = well not quite more the when the two of you are interested in doing things together then you can share so much by being together , to me that would be so neat .
At 68 + how many women would be interested not seen any yet or met any , and , not on here how many men are real most I have contact me well past 200 I treat them all as scammers because they have proved they are , and some pose as women lie,ers , so be very aware ,
Here I have sent letter / email to a few men who are okay just most are far younger than I so I know there is no interest not from where I am coming from ,
So for now single is it .
Ich wuerde gerne mit einem liebenden Frau zu sein Ya .
...noeleena...
Way to go Noeleena. I am sure that person is a very unhappy one. I am so glad he is not anywhere around me..That is for sure.

That's understandable but just listening to the negativity from the single ones amongst us , leads me to believe that being in love & being loved, can often render the things that frustrate us , irrelevant .
Welcome Diova. I have been single for the last 10 years, had a two year relationship last 2011 to 2013 and I can truly say that settling for anything is not good. Not that it wasn't good for a 6 hours time of 24 hours, but when pain and sorrow comes more than the flicker of little happiness, no way, will I settle for that.
I am so happy Diova and do things my way without regard to anyone. Not that there is no possibility of cultivating a most reconcilable and happy relationship, just that the right one is not around yet..lol..

There is always frustration John, single or not, but I believe that when the positive is outweighed by the negatives, that is when it happens.
But truly happiness in life is how we make it. Comfort, peace, trust and joys are the primary ingredients of a happy relationship. I am not being unreasonable, nothing is perfect but we can work it out when the right one comes.

I've never been in a relationship that didn't have it's ups & downs, however, often people make rash decisions based on emotions which they often live to regret... When love is strong between a couple , anything can be worked out, unfortunately , nowadays, couples don't have the same endurance that makes for a lasting relationship.

Endurance, that is the term well put in use if there is a binding reason for the future. I was never in a haste when making decisions. But lo and behold, my parents and most couple in the Philippines never get divorces. Not omitting the facts about cheating and misery for those that want to end the union.
But yes, it might be a very wrong decision if one doesn't look at the positive results. I don't and have never regretted in my decisions. Just like when I move, I don't indulge in the beauty of what I am leaving but the thrill of the new place I am going to experience. Just saying.
lindsy If I was given a 2nd chance to repeat the last 9 years all over again of who I would rather be with and I have a pretty good idea that you know to whom I'm referring to too.
I don't like being alone and but I had no choice in the matter.

I know CC and bless is your heart that you had that most wonderful life with him. Bless his soul too and I am sure, it will happen again somehow. I am sure because of the way you carry your life CC, a most endearing relationship takes two to make it and certainly, you have it...
serene56: Wow, I'm always gobsmacked when I get this reaction And it's always from men.
That I'm tough, yet I've been a loving, loyal, devoted and caring human being all my life but have chosen the wrong ones to share these qualities with.This is why I remain single, maybe one day I'll get it right.
In response to: I am sure either situation provides ups and downs but at the current stage of your life, which would you prefer to be? Alone? Or with someone?
Sharing your opinion is highly appreciated.
Thanks all for your participation and opinions.
At the current stage of my life I would prefer to be single.
Hi Lindsy, I hope I am spelling your name correctly...(I think I misspelled it this morning). But I was thinking that with all the "happily single" people out and about that maybe a "Singles" site for people that want to stay single and and not be bothered with the constant propositions would be an idea?!?

I am okay here Dragos. I enjoy the forums and blogs more than anything else and having fun with so many friends I met on here and we meet in person at least once a year.
