Re: anyone single still?
I'm not panicking yet (I'm nearly 25 but still wanted to post here!), sometimes I get bothered about feeling unwanted, undesirable, not a keeper but I don't feel like I have to settle down yet. I think I'd be ok in around the next 7 years if I still didn't have anybody but it's nice to get some interest at times. If I found someone were it seemed we were meant to be together that would still be good.
I want friends mostly, they've made it feels like it's less important to try and get a partner. I used to feel like I needed a boyfriend, I'm not sure why, maybe it was because I thought that was what everyone was aiming for in life. I just want good company though and someone I can share my thoughts and worries with. I guess I still get times were I'm upset about being single. I'm not too bothered about being settled down or married by a certain age anymore, since a lot of marriages don't last or people end up feeling stuck with each other. I would like to experience some relationships while I'm young though. I guess when I'm older and if everyone my age around me seems to be married and have kids I might feel a bit left out but there will still be a few others the same way. I just want to have people around me, I don't want to feel all alone. |

Re: anyone single still?
I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact I'll be single for the rest of my life. Stranger things have happened though, I guess. Though I can't see me getting past my problems and having trust in someone.
I have far too many issues to unleash on anyone - particularly somebody I cared for. I don't really have anything to offer, so tend to just focus on trying to be a good person. Most days I fail at even this. |

Re: anyone single still?
Yeah im a single pringle in need to mingle. Im not interested in a relationship, unless the girl was someone very special. I need to get myself right first, have my freedom and fun then settle down.
Right now Im just to bloody shy to do anything on that front, it comes with the SA territory.. Small steps though. Once the shyness goes and I gain strength (like Heman) Im gonna be a lady killer...... and why not. |

Re: anyone single still?
I wish I didn't care!
Having been on 2 dating sites for 3 years it's beginning to feel like I can't even give myself away ! Obviously no woman out there has reached a point so low as to give me a go. Oh dear |

Re: anyone single still?
Yeah, sick of it to be honest. I feel like I need someone to give me motivation to get up in the morning. If it wasn't just about me I'd have to and want to keep doing better in life.

Re: anyone single still?
35 here, and never had a relationship of any kind. Not even a sniff. I would say that no-one was ever interested in me, but I've been told that someone once was, I was just too oblivious to notice and eventually she got bored of me being clueless. She even asked herself into my flat once, when she knew it was just me there. I thought she was after my flatmate and was puzzled when she wanted to come in even though he wasn't there. I can't believe how ^&*$$ naive I was.
Anyway, if anything I'm too conscious of being single these days. But I heard some good advice - be friends before you get into a relationship. Now all I have to do is make some friends. One step at a time :| |

When girls have been very direct with me and asked me out, there have always been a pack of girls giggling nearby, so I always assumed it was some cruel joke they were playing on me. It probably was, but sometimes I wonder. |

Re: anyone single still?
my revelation of the past few years is the idea that no matter how much of a scumbag i see myself as, some women are actually capable of being attracted to me.
when you can't imagine this in any shape or form its hard to understand or see signals. |

Re: anyone single still?
I'm not a scumbag - it's the scumbags that seem to have the most sucess with women.
But then I wouldn't want to attract the kind of women that thinks scumbags are attractive. |

Re: anyone single still?
I have no partner but a few friends. I do think tho, that as you get older your friendships change as most people do have partners/a life and aren't always free to share experiences. I may be rather cynical here, but I also find people aren't always that reliable. I don't go out socially, and the last three years have been particularly difficult for me. However, I try not to let SA interfere too much and I have no problem in traveling abroad or holidaying alone. I have always gone out alone even when I was younger, although then I had a bigger social circle so I always managed to tag along with someone.
I have been told in the past that men fancy me, but could never work this out, I suppose like others have said, I just can't read signals; I've also had some bad experiences with men which just reinforces my belief that there's sommat wrong with me. I don't think anyone would want me now ( being fat and middle aged) so I am trying to come to terms with a life alone - I think in the past I had always secretly hoped I would find someone, but not now. I think life is for living and still intend to do as much as I can when I am able to, on my own. Not having a partner doesn't stop you from appreciating beauty, exploring, trying new things, or having a meaningful life. |

Re: anyone single still?
Yes I'm single, I'm 34 never had a serious relationship, just some flings.
I do have some friends. I really am very different from those people who say they are loners and better without other people. I certainly don't need other people to make me happy, however when I'm in a good mood being with other people can be great. Having friends is about giving something of yourself back it's not all about sucking the life out of them. It's easy to meet people, just join a meet-up group, learn to climb, learn any sport. I'll go to Salsa tonight, although none of those people are my friends it's still fun. Mark |

Jerks treat women the way they do because they have gotten into the habit of going for what they want, and then handwaving a dismissal the instant they don***8217;t get it. I used to be that nice guy. I***8217;m not a jerk now, but I see more play than I used to do. I only kissed a woman when I turned 23, and had to wait until 28 before I had sex for the first time. Think of that person you really really yearn for, and how long it takes even to initiate a conversation with her (months perhaps!). A ***8216;jerk***8217; will simply walk up to her, flirt, and ask her out. If she turns him down, he***8217;ll move onto the next woman. He doesn***8217;t develop deep crushes on any particular woman unless he***8217;s actually going out with her. That was ***8212; and still is ***8212; the hardest thing for me to grasp: that it***8217;s all a numbers game and you have to get shot down in flames before you make any progress. Which is even worse when you suffer SA. Quote:
