O.O ive never thought about it that way. I guess im always on the lookout for the one because I just have WAYYYYY too much love im just waiting to shower someone with. Ive only been in a few relationships, all very happy and all only ended due to distance :( becase paying for airline tickets is hard lol and ive been doing it since i was 15 XD. I will take your advice though :) i think i can be happy with being just my own bookwormish, martial artist, danceaholic self. maybe i will find that one mature woman :) maybe not XD


what is XD? just wondering


I took it as an emoticon...someone with a big open-mouthed smile who was also squeezing his eyes shut.

Some of us are ok with being single and some of us are on a perpetual hunt for "the one". I think those of us who are ok with being single can continue on with our lives being ourselves, doing what we do and IF someone great comes along, we're ready.

If you spend your whole life searching for someone you will continually fool yourself into thinking you MAY have found them, inevitably ending in heartbreak. You beat yourself up over and over again trying to figure out what went wrong. Eventually you become so jaded that you stop being yourself and start trying to be what you think they want you to be to prove you aren't going mad. And when they still don't want you, you convince yourself they are the ones who made you mad in the first place.

Please people, be happy with who you are and someone, someday will come along to be happy with you.





You should provide singles counseling, hopefully people read and understand what you just wrote. You are one smart lady and I look forward to reading your posts as well!

I know im single for a couple reasons. One i'm not activly looking because I like being single, and the second is because I know im not really attractive to most people, wich is life. BTW I don't need the ones that have sending me messages telling me so and telling me I should leave the site because with the way I look I wont ever find anyone on here or any other dating website.

Even though I realize what you are saying it still hurt's. :cry:

I agree with this post 110% I don't care if I'm single or not, no one will make me happy but myself. If someone comes and can compliment my life, that's great, if someone is a burden, they are out, simple!

well i hate being single and I love seeing all the different types of guys there are out there. i dont have relationships with all them but I am not afraid to put myself out there. I am not waiting around for mr right. I agree he will come when it's time (after me-hidden double meaning) but in the mean time. . . . .


Why do you hate being single?

because sometimes it's lonely, sometimes i need some ya know, and I was married for so long it was at my beck and call, now everything has to be arranged and stuff as far as safe sex goes. i just miss the regularity i guess.

i dont know but even ugly people can get into relationships. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and nothing can be more true. I come from a judgemental family, NOT ME< but i have had people ask me why i am going out with certain people telling ME they arent MY STYLE, one was a large somoan but i liked him, he was sweet and said a lot of genuine things. I found him to be a beautiful person. On the contrary, two of my friends got into a fight over an extremely handsome guy who turned out to totally beat one of them and that should say it all. when you meet the right person, you will know and you will find them good looking by how well you get along and how it shapes your opinion.

I think heartbreak is a very healthy feeling because it lets you know that you're an active member of the human race.
I've been in long term relationships since my teens probably because my path in life was pretty clear to me.
Being single for the past 15 months has been the most productive and introspective time of my life so far.

That's ridiculous, untrue and just mean. I am always amazed at the things people feel free to say when they are hiding behind a computer screen. ohwell

I am one of the ones who deluded themselves about "the one" - I thought I was happily married. We separated when I received some disturbing information. And guess what - I wasn't heart-broken. Believe it or not - that's been my real disappointment - how can you not realize you're not happy? I am happier now than I've been in years - wouldn't mind meeting someone to hang out with but very happy with my situation as is. Basically, I'm relieved.
