    The first 21 years of life were the longest, closely followed 22 years later by the last 21 months & counting.

    So... first "real" relationship when I was about 15, for a year or so, then I was REALLY single for 6 months, than was just OFFICIALLY single for 2 years - lol had a pretty messed up "best friend", it was a really ugly story. And then was really single again for 10 months and got together with someone else, been together for 15months now, engaged at the moment (since February) (:

    about 13 years. Given up looking now. Been single so long that it would be really weird to not be single.

    Well, I got married the first time at 18 to my first serious boyfriend. That lasted 4 years. 10 months after we split, I met my now husband. We've been together for 23 years. So I guess I was single in adulthood for 10 months.

    when i split with my ex i took a look at my life and i realised i'd never been single for more than a couple of months. i had spent my whole adult life as part of a couple.

    so i decided to spend a little time being single & celibate, just to figure out myself and what i really wanted from life. that lasted 4 years.

    since then, in a space of 6 years, i've had a few phases of dating guys for a while, one of which lasted over a year, but i found i really didn't want any more than that.

    after giving myself a whole heap of time i realised i like waking up on my own, i like never having to consult before i plan, i like being answerable to nobody.

    that might all change if i meet someone amazing. but he would have to be seriously amazing. i'm only going to change my life if the thought of sharing my life with him is better.

    In my adulthood the longest I've been single is 2.5 years. Then I met my husband, and we've been married for 10 years now (together for 12).

    I only started dating last summer, and in that time had two boyfriends, so... A month? Haha. Before that I had a 20 year spell, though.

    I was single for 2 years after my divorce. Had a few dates during that time, but no relationships until I met my current husband.

    2.5 years. Lots of dating but just not clicking with someone special. I've a four year old so it will take a very special man before I'd introduce her.

    I have now been single for 6 years!!!!

    After I ended a bad relationship with my daughters father i took 4 years out of the dating game completely to focus on being a mom. I've been dating now for 2 year and I'm ready to give up and get a bunch of cats.

    You'll be single for even longer if you follow through on that cat idea.
