    almost 3 years. i love being single, plus i'm only 20 so what do i need a boyfriend for?

    this is such a great outlook! So many times I see women so desperate not to be single that they stay with the wrong guy.
    As for me, I turn 30 next year and I've been single for about a year and a half (boyfriend cheated - for the whole of our relationship, so I'm happy being single for now)

    I know how that feels. I'm 30 and split with my ex 6 months ago and about 3 months ago he confessed via msn to cheating on me for over half the time we were together.

    I don't really like being a single, I prefer being part of a two. Just for the simple things like a snuggle while I watch TV although my cats give good snuggles

    About 9 months. Some homeless guy said it's because I'm ugly.

    6 years.....because the more I date, the more I realize I want to be single. Saves a ton of heartache.

    A very long time, I can't even remember the last I considered someone my boyfriend. Most people can't take the fact that I don't sugar coat thing, and I am blunt. The one person that actually gets me is in a relationship with someone else.

    was married almost 3.5 years.
    left at the end of last year.
    been alone since then, with the exception of a handful of not-so-serious trysts here and there.
    i love it.
    i've actually forgotten what it's like to come home to a house shared with another person. i don't recall how it feels to wake up in the middle of the night and have someone else sprawled out on the other half of the bed, or untangling limbs to try and regain my space...
    i don't miss cooking for two or more, and taking everyone's dietary preferences and schedules into consideration. nor do i miss scheduling bathtime around the whims of the small gas-powered hot water heater.

    not to say that i plan to be this way forever, but for now... i'm happily content. ♥

    Almost two years without a REAL relationship after a one that was almost 5 years long. I've dated a little here and there, had a couple flings but nothing serious.

    Now of course- I'm not against random MFP women hitting on me. By all means do what you need to do.
    <--- I do have some sexy legs.....

    It will be 1 year in about 2 weeks or so. We were together for 4 1/2 years and engaged for most of it. Did not end well. But, I didn't seriously date until I was 18 anyways. I haven't looked or put myself out there to date again yet. I think I'm starting to enjoy being single too much. haha.
