wow, hey stop feeling sorry for yourself bro. The single life isn't so bad. You are free to do whatever you want without checking in with anyone. You're also not a slave to wanting to spend every waking (and sleeping) second with someone. You're also not taking a shot to the ego. Try focusing more on yourself. This is a moment in your life when you get things done. Get life set up for yourself. When you make yourself happy, good things happen... Relationships can be great, but they do take effort. It's worth it most of the time. but don't knock being single. Appreciate it.

Happiness comes from within. It shouldn't take another person to influence your state of mind.


Happiness may come from within, but every person is different. Some people enjoy spending time with friends, playing sports, their job, etc. and than some people live their lives to find someone to love and grow with.

Everybody is different. Everybody finds happiness a different way and in something different than what others may find it in. No sense in justifying their unhappiness with words of fake wisdom to console yourself.


If you're not happy with yourself when you're single, chances are you're not going to be happy with yourself when you're with someone else.


I already know I am a completely different person who is truly happy in a relationship yet completely void and empty being single, and the fact I have money and a fancy car hasn't changed that fact.


Why can't you be happy on your own? Money and fancy cars don't necessarily make people happy. Single or not.


I was made by God to Love a woman and raise a family with love, thus the only way for me to be happy is to find that. Nothing else is as great in this world as the true love of a woman, and there is no feeling in the world as amazing as when a child smiles from your love.

Shocking lee some one brings up the age of being young has something to do with it lol.

I'm not too picky either, I'm a rather picky eater I'll admit that.

I just like saying how I felt about being single. I probably would be single for the rest of my life rather or not I'm 28 or 38 etc, I don't think it will matter to much.





so you just feel that's WHO you are? ohwell Well then, that's different. Some people ARE meant to be single .. not everyone wants to be with someone, but if you don't want to be single, then I don't think that's your destiny hon


Good point.

I want to be with somebody..I just don't think I'm supposed to:cry:


Well I'm thinking maybe I'm supposed to be single as well. But I guess all any and every one can do is take one day at a time and just go with how things are going for the time being.

and that is how you end up heartbroken and picking up the pieces of your life after that person has a change of heart or whatever



That's a risk you have to be willing to take. Nothing in this world that comes easy is worth it.

I like being single except I do miss the strength of arms around me...definitely.....sigh.....sigh...love blushing

I think of that Carrie Underwood song..."So Small"--Nothing matters like love but its on the someday list for me.

If it happens GREAT. If not, I'm going to get lots of cats...


That's the problem with people today, I'm not trying to pick on you or put you down or anybody else for that matter, but the fact remains we only live on this earth so long. Why do people put other things before the things they really want? If you understand that love is the most important thing in the world, why aren't you willing to do whatever it takes to achieve it?

I'm not saying settle for someone or go out dating every person you meet, but when you say "its on my someday list" than you're denying yourself. This can go for anything in life, people are always afraid of becoming something or doing something because of the consequences of being hurt or failing or worse, and I never can understand what people think when that happens.

You live on this earth for a very short time and than it's over, and nobody ever truly lives life because they are cast down in fear from society. If Love is what you live for, than accept nothing but the truth.


But, if you spend your entire life just looking for love and not focusing on your actual life, you're going to miss a lot. Find things that make you happy. Do things you want to do. Don't spend every second searching for that perfect person or you might miss what's going on around you.

In my opinion, the perfect woman/man for people can be seen everyday on the street, the problem is we are all afraid to act on it. If you truly want happiness, you need to let go of the fear inside because that fear will grab you and control you until you release it. When you can let that fear go, than you can begin living life.

I think I appreciate to a point of being single that is.

Who says you'll be missing anything?

You start life on a journey to find something and you experience the great things along the way. I'm not saying curl up in a ball and ignore everything except that one thing, all I'm saying is have a real goal in your mind and follow it until the end.

If you want something, go get it.

Being single is infinately better than being with the wrong person just to not be alone in my opinion. The right person is worth waiting to find and you might miss them if you are with the wrong person just killing time....Be patient they are out there....it just takes time and a gps locating system to find them.....:wink:


Good luck~

You stick to your gun's. You're young and, not tarnished by the heartbreak's of love. Don't listen to the nay sayer's. You lead your life on the path you have chosen.

People don't understand life, when you work your 9 to 5 job and come home and do the same thing everyday, you're not living life you're just existing, barely a meek existence at that. Nobody is willing to die for something they believe in anymore because they are all held down by that fear, so everybody dismisses the people who speak out and now there are no people left to stand up and speak, which is why this world is falling apart.

Unfortunately there's no way to change the mind of people these days.

I am starting to think since I don't have much of a whole great life as it is, I'm better being single and probably why I have stayed single for so long thus far.

So what's all your take is being single way way extremely better or what ???????

I mean I guess if I haven't found no one yet and no body wants me then maybe single life is meant to be.

Oh well it's time to move on with staying single, I guess.

i saw this show the other night about men and their rubber love dolls. now those men have been alone a little to long. that even sounds gross. one guy sent his doll in for repairs and never cleaned out the private part.

You raise an interesting point of view. I think some people can do wonders being single. While others can work equal wonders while being not single. I think if someone is too dependent on the looking to be with someone then life becomes a drag. So it's better just to try and get enjoy life the best you can whether it be with or with out someone.
I'm a firm believer that someone can be perfectly happy with good friends and family.

Yeah well, it wouldn't be so bad if I only had friends that wanted to hang out and do stuff, but to each there own. I'm not that close to family but that's a whole other story.
