Why are you single?

[simba86 1,541]

i am single because they are not worth the effort and expense. i am a lone wolf and i do best when I'm alone and I enjoy being the single guy that still has cash in his pocket because i don't spend it all on girls

[Steve Piranha 28,747]

I've found out I like to live alone. Money and time for myself, no random outburst for little things, peace and quiet..... and many more. Plus living with moderate (at best) depression for over a decade and my parents being pathetic in handling it (more often than not, making it worse), took away any desire to start a family..... well, I do want to start a family, a family of my and two dogs  

[FlowerSun 61]

Simple. Not found one.

[Gabriel 560]

Welp, saw this on the "recently posted in" and decided to write something up since I am on a chem lecture and bored out of my mortal mind. Now, the chosen few know I tend to ramble on for paragraphs on end but this time I will attempt to keep it short and quick before the lecturer comes around and roasts me.

So, yes, I am single and with a lifelong plan of staying away from long relationships and without even a notion of getting engaged or married. In my world view a "significant other" is nothing but a significant drag to pull my life down the sink.

Why? I need to pay attention to them, spend time with them, possibly spend my income on them etc. right? Well, that does not sound very good to me. I live only once and I wish to fulfill my dreams and goals and having someone else there would inevitably complicate things, and since I live by the rule "The best solution is usually the easiest one", I find that the most sound and logical conclusion is to simply not have one, ever. 

This does not mean that I totally wouldn't like to have a gal by my side, but since I am indeed myself, my own life comes first.

 

Huh, I still managed to make it an overly long mess.  Anyways, cheers for reading.

Lol love the little :3 at the end of the thread title. "Why are you pitifully lonely you little shit? :3"

Aaaaaaaaanyways, I believe I am not ready for the responsibilities of having a relationship, really. I am usually too uninterested nowadays anyways.

[Attack of the Pwns 894]

I just don’t think I’m the marriage type, and if I’m not looking for a long term relationship, what would be the point of leading some woman on? 

Also, I have eccentric tastes, and I have a mild case of Aspergers which leads to me being obsessed over a handful of topics, none of which I have yet to find a woman who cares about as much as I do.

But I’m happy with this. I’m free to be my own man, and to live any lifestyle I care to. Also, I don’t have the economic stressors that come with having a significant other.

I not seeking a relationship as of current. A lot has been on my mind about college, career and my family. 

Well...On top of this, I don't think some lady is going to like me for who I am. Example is being socially awkward if that's already enough with people alone. I feared that being single is inevitable.

[n1029 224]

I'm so deep in debt and have so many expensive personal ambitions that I see a girlfriend/wife as an unnecessary money sink. Haven't really ever actively looked for one.

 

I admit I'm lonely sometimes and I'd love to find someone who is right for me (and is totally cool with my MLP fandom), but I also know that being stuck with someone who doesn't click is infinitely worse than being alone. It just isn't as easy to find true friends as Twilight makes it out to be.

I'm single because I'v never asked a girl out before

 

sad I know

[Flutt3rTree 28]

I'm single because every girl I start to get a crush on is dating someone apparently. Or engaged/married for the last two. Really inconvenient.

[Tao 6,706]

Well I did have a boyfriend for a year, but we parted ways just due to things.  Mostly I'm single now due to moving in the next months to come back to my home state!

[TokusatsuKuugaRX 0]

Well for me I have not found the right girl just yet.

But I figure sooner or later I will find her.

[Handsome Changeling 1,851]

Biiiiig break up with my ex. And thus after that my feelings are incredibly fragile and I avoid anything relationship wise and have for around 8 months. Love is the most powerful. And most painful thing to ever exist. And I am a Changeling so you know I mean business saying that!

[CinnamonPop 3,341]

Umm... Well I think it's something to do with trusting myself, before I trust others. 

If I had nothing to worry about, then I probably wouldn't be posting here. ^~^'

[CrimpedContraband 47]

Because I turn most of them down, or I keep it at the friend zone for us. I'm Marine or Navy Bound and I don't need someone being lonely or cheating while I'm away.

[Sonic Shimmer 4,116]

Partly because I haven't met the right person yet and partly because I probably wouldn't have a clue what to say or do if I did.

[Feather Scribbles 194]

Because I am not interested.

[SoberStarlight 906]

Partially because I have been very busy and haven't had time for a relationship, but partly because I haven't met the right person...

[Simcity11100 770]

because I'm a racer and

[Twisted Cyclone 🚓 6,221]

I am single because I haven't found someone who can handle my upbeat, cheerful and happy personality...

 

...And they're missing out. js. 

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

I posted in here a while back but, some things have changed since then. 

I'm only single because I just haven't found the right guy yet...or rather he hasn't found me yet.  I'm in no hurry to get in a relationship though...I'm perfectly fine waiting for that special someone. But hey, if you sweep me off my hooves better than Jimmie Johnson, trust me, you'll be good enough for me.

Moving can be difficult, hope you have/had an easy time with it!!

[DubWolf 16,573]

Because I’m way too shy and fear rejection like the devil and also see myself as the devil if I can tell a girl isn’t into me and I feel very unattractive afterwards  .

Ive only managed to do it online because people get to know me first for a while and it’s so much easier to reach out than in person where you’re probably around them often. Here you can just disappear...

Actually I lied I’ve had a relationship twice in real life but long ago.

I say “know me first” before actually seeing me since I don’t think I’m all that attractive (not awful but not the best).

[Prospekt 10,984]

Because I've been hurt by bad breakups twice before and while I do have feelings for someone, I'm afraid it would end badly if I were to make a move...

[Narcissus 352]

I'm single because I'm an acquired taste. I'm introverted, cynical and hard to reach. When I meet someone I like, they have to see past the exterior and find what's good under the surface. Most people don't go that far and I don't blame them. The last time I got close to someone, circumstances beyond my control took me away from her and that messed me up a lot. I've met someone new and I like her but I'm awkward around people, especially the ones I'm attracted to, so it may take time to develop.
