But really is it that because of our nasty ways or is it because we are too needy or is it because we are a cheater, or  have no job or no car or is it because we just don't know how? Or because you dont have a degree Or is it because we are afraid or insecure or just too fat or are you just plain ugly,  with a pretty attitude, with all that baggage, it's still keep you alone by choice. 

I'm alone because that's the way I like and nothing else.

Sometimes it's not by choice, yet people will say that as an excuse. I think, for some, it makes them feel better about being alone. It might keep them from becoming too negative about their situation, or circumstances. No one should make excuses though, they should figure out how to change the things they are unhappy about. As cheesy as it sounds, where there's a will,there's a way.

I do think there are as many reasons for being alone as their are for being together. Some good some not so good. I agree many are excuses that can be over come. The whole someone for everyone concept.

Nature of the media beast is sometimes to be kind of harsh but most here on Mingle will give you a chance to prove yourself so will say Welcome and just keep your heart open to possibilities.

I think most people are sincere when they say this because life is nothing but an endless array of choices.

We choose to be alone for a variety of reasons, but mostly I think it's because we have a preconceived notion of what we expect from a partner and from ourselves. We may think that we're not where we need to be to invest in a relationship, that we haven't attained what we need to have to attract the type of person we want. On the other hand, we may not want to settle for someone that doesn't fulfill our expectations.

We seem to want the stars to align into the perfect configuration before we opt for companionship instead of walking the solo journey through life. Even though we say we're content by ourselves, I think most people deep down want that connection with someone else; we just seem to have trouble expanding our narrow minded parameters that would allow it, so we choose to be alone.
