    3. Hate the way lovey dovey BS changes people and pulls friends away.
    4. My standards are so high they'd fail a drug test.
    5. I'm a narcissist and I haven't met my doppelgänger yet.

    Because I can't/don't trust anybody, and I won't let anyone close enough. Plus I have this noisy voice in my head that tells me I don't deserve a relationship :) all kinds of messed up here lol
  • ::Shrugs:: I actually choose to be. If I want something, I can get it without the strings attached to it. I like that actually. I don't want someone around me 24/7 asking me where I've been or what I'm doing. I guess that is just me personally.... but if I wanna go out I go and don't have to ask anyone. Plus my youngest is 9 years old... I want my kids to be much older before I get attached to someone and bring them home. I've got a good thing going... I'm not about to mess it up with a relationship. ::Shivers::

    I don't have enough confidence to actually talk to guys. I blush way too easily and I'm self conscious about that. And then I compare myself to other girls and think that guys would like them, more.
    I was in a long distance relationship that I put way too much effort into. The guy started dated his ex, again, and then told me that we were just friends.
    That, and I always fall for guys that I can't have.

    Because I work 14-16 hours a day, 7 days a week. And I am out of the country 6 months of the year for work. And I have trust issues after my last 3 relationships.

    Honestly, I just don't have the time or the energy to commit to a relationship. It took me a while after one really bad relationship to realise that I don't actually need a man in my life to be happy. I love having my freedom and being able to do what I want, when I want, without having to think about anybody else. However I think this is also made easier by the fact that I don't actually want to get married or have kids.

    Being single doesn't mean I'm celibate though :)

    Because I've yet to find a man that truly keep up with/handle me.

    And no, I don't just mean in the bedroom.

    Confidence is probably the biggest reason - at the moment I don't particularly love myself, so why should anyone else?

    Because I like gorgeous sophisticated men. There are not many of them.

    But I'm not really single.

    I'm sad seeing so many reasons of abuse and lack of trust... :(

    Can absolutely understand and relate to the shy reason. We are all here to become healthier and better looking so just keep working on it. When you look and feel good, you get confident.

    Short answer: Because I'm not the easiest person to get along with and I don't want to settle.
  • 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.

    ^^^^THIS. You sir, are a hero to me !

    Couple of reasons..
    I got out of a 3 year relationship just a few months ago, and well he set the bar pretty high
    I have no desire to be in a relationship which is less than perfect
    Im happy as i am for now, I can do what I want when I want, no commitments to anyone, no needing to ask if its OK to go do something (not that i had to ask as such but now i can just get up and go and wont have anyone wondering where i am).

    Though I did realise last night I am now the only single girl in the group now :|

    Just broke up this weekend... First bf I've had in a long time, and he was a good one, but too much baggage.
    Oh, the ice cream I have consumed this weekend...
  • I'm single because I still don't see myself to be married yet. I still have some dreams and goals that I haven't achieved. And besides, I'm not in a hurry. But as of now, I don't have any plans to get married.

    Being single is fun (as of now). I am freely whatever I want to do.

    Because I like doing my own thing and refuse to settle into a relationship unless I am actually passionate about the person.
