    I'm picky and I am not financially independent. I want to learn how to cook and have my own place before I get a girlfriend. I use to always wonder what's wrong with me and why i never had a girlfriend.

    But I realize that I should learn to be happy about myself first, before i take a step and let someone into my world. It wouldn't be fair for the girl if she was stuck with someone who asks mom for money all the time and doesn't really know how to cook that well. I have to finish school with good grades and learn to improve my character. So I'll be seeing more lonely weekends, but I'll gladly use that time to achieve my other goals in life.

    I accept the love I think I deserve. So, there is a serious lack of love in my life.

    I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer and all.. but I totally don't get what you meant. Please explain

    She's holding out for that super special person; therefor, she hasn't found that love yet.

    I guess women find me unattractive and gross I guess. Maybe it is my personality. One day perhaps I will find someone who likes me for who I am.

    Pretty simple for me. No confidence around girls. I've always been the funny fat guy or "the friend."

    Well just don't wait to long, you will end up like me, 37 and not married. I've been absurdly picky most of my adult life.

    because I'm in the middle of a divorce from a controlling and narcissistic person.
    because i wonder whether it is even possible to have a good relationship.

    because I have so much happening in my life that has turned me into a bit of a wreck

    Because I can squat more than most guys at the gym. Okay, no, not really.

    And also because I have trust issues.

    simply because no girls deserve to be with me.

    I read this and went ... Pfft ... But then I thought about it, and I feel the same. I am single because I am only going to be with someone is suited to me and I them. Why bother otherwise? I've spent a lot of time with people who don't suit me on most/all levels, and while I don't think I wasted my time at all, I do think they made me realise what I would and wouldn't put up with and who I did and did not want to be with.

    that's what i'm hoping therapy will explain to me....

    no seriously.....it's the truth...

    I'm single because i have a historical pattern of dating abusive men. And my daughter deserves much better than that...so I have to break the cycle...

    until I learn what i'm doing wrong, i'm not dating...

    it's that simple.

    Always been the funny fat guy stuck in the friend-zone too. And get too nervous trying to talk to women I don't know...because I am the funny fat guy, they won't take me serious.

    Because my husband of 44 years died. Right now I have NO desire to be anything but single. Living by myself is total freedom to do as I wish.

    I've been single since the day before I turned 25. (I'll be 28 on the 18th)

    Until about this year, it was mainly by choice, I took a lot of time to stay single, not deal with drama, focus on self improvement, etc..

    It took me until the end of September to really find anyone worth pursuing, but it happened. Unfortunately, despite making a huge level of connection, it apparently isn't the right time for her, so my search continues. In a way that was good because it showed me that yeah, I can attract someone who is a '9' in every aspect, but it was bad too because it has raised my bar that much further. v___________v

    In general.. I don't really put myself out there as much as I perhaps should. I'm kind of anti-social in ways, and I'm pretty sure I have a solid fear of rejection.

    I'm harder, better, faster, stronger alone.

    (Lol. Also, lazy, slow, & weak when I want to be, with no daily judgment.)
