    Feeling lonely and bored. Wanting to go out but having no one to go with. Yeah... that.

    It doesn't suck that bad honestly...

    But I really do hate first dates.

    Could we skip that part, please? ;-)

    Totally have to agree on these!! Plus I love snuggling

    But I do like the single life when it comes to girls nights out and enjoying my life the way I want it.

    I'm okay with the day-to-day part of being single. I am so busy with my work that I don't have much time to feel lonely. For me, it's the bigger things like having someone to take to a wedding or a family gathering. I've been single for a long time (my choice) and I'm sick of my family asking me about it. And I'm kind of surprised that since I decided this past spring that I might be ready for a relationship, it hasn't happened yet. It's much harder to meet someone when you're in your 40s it seems.

    I'm still alone. And I went to two weddings this summer alone.

    I agree about the age thing... I'm 39 and it seems that the only guys I meet are either way to young (and immature) and don't want the ready-made family, or are too close to my parents' age and I just can't do that! I struggle the most with finding guys in the 30-40 range who accept my kids (and don't want any of their own, since I can't have any more). Ahhh.. and the snuggling. Miss it so.

    Quoting myself lol. When I said I was surprised it hadn't happened yet, I wasn't being uppity, saying that I am so great I can't believe all the men don't want me! I meant that six years ago when I decided to get off the dating scene and focus on my sons, I didn't know it would be this hard to get back into it. Just wanted to clarify!

    One that's really getting to me lately:

    My family is sharing the costs of SEVERAL group presents and parties. They all have two incomes, but the cost is being split equally among households - even though I'm the only single (and the only non-recipient of these presents and parties).

    Feels so good to vent that somewhere!

    There's a few good things about being single!! I was in a relationship for a long time, and just got divorced in February!! I have dated since then but it seems like since getting divorced I think ab not getting too attached too soon!! Most of my girlfriends are single and we're all in our 20s so we tend to go out a lot, which makes things easier. Sadly I do miss having someone to cuddle with!! :)

    This thread is depressing! ha!

    Precisely why I made the "Being Single ROCKS because..." thread. I didn't want this to become depressing! IMO there can be both good and not-so-great aspects of being single.

    I mostly miss having a snuggle buddy - the cats just don't cut it in that regard. :laugh:

    Seriously, just having someone to share life with - someone that always has your back...that's what I miss being single. :heart:


    I agree....my cats are only so much company. Plus...I don't want to turn into the old crazy cat lady. My max is 3...lol I just miss having someone to share ALL of life with...the good/bad/ugly. I keep hoping that my 'true' special someone is still out there and that they are looking for and wanting me as much as I do them.

    I spend most of my time alone! I am always suspicious of women and their motives. Mainly due to the fact that I have my own home, vehicles and am not to awful bad on the eyes.

    Where are you again??? I own my home, drive a Lexus, have a decent job.......

    I can't find a guy with a job period!!!!!
