Random questions at 1am! yay!

I was letting my mind run free when I realised something. I have been single for...*drum roll* 4 years. Yep. 4 years. It sucks greatly/ It is because I am very shy and tend to keep to myself. I'm more of a observer. I speak when spoken directly too. #Sociallyawkward.

Also, the past couple of years have been busy between graduating, starting college and my weight loss, I suppose I haven't really had time for a relationship. But, has anyone else played a long game in the single life or am I just that pathetic? haha

    After being together for almost 12 years with a great women, and deciding that it still wasnt what I wanted, I love being single (not to be confused with being alone )

    Longest for me (not counting before high school) would probably be a year. Then again, I met my husband when I was 19, got engaged at 20, and married at 21.

    41 years, the beauty of being asexual.

    I'm now at 8 years and counting...


    This is the drawback of being really introverted and just kind of disliking humanity in general. :laugh:

    4 or 5 years, maybe more. I've been too busy being me and, when I've had a relationship, it felt like too much. Not lived with a guy for 10+ years. It's just not something I've wanted.

    I'm going to count from first hint of sexual activity, so from first kiss to first relationship, eighteen months. Before that, thirteen years.

    Omg, I'm not the only one...I love being the observer. Especially in class- a lot of people love to snack on pretzels! Anyway, I'm extremely shy and I'm usually the "listener" but once someone gets to actually know me-- I can be really funny/entertaining. I love making people laugh with my weirdness. Then again, everyone in college seems to be a bit more serious and laid back. Oh and I can't really say I've had a boyfriend. Ugh. 19 and single. Lol.

    It's been a little over a year now. Sadly, I've met some great guys where the attraction was mutual in that period. But there's just been too much transition with me graduating college and knowing I'm going to live on the other side of the country. I feel like I missed out, but at the same time spared myself a broken heart and am going into this next phase unattached to anyone back home.

    I had my first 'relationship' when I was 14, my second between the ages of 15-17 and my final (and current) one from 17 until now (I'm 21)

    So from the age of 14, I've been single a grand total of a year (8 months between the first and second, and 4 months between the second and third)

    I'm a relationship kind of person :-)
