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

    Im never good enough for the gals around me.
    If I can be honest, im thinkin about switching teams...it's that bad.

    because i realized i can still get what i want without being involved with the nonsense of a long term relationship. They're so time consuming.

    Because I choose to be. I would love to find someone, but I've always believed that it is better to be alone than to settle. The right person will come along one day---that goes for everyone :)

    Because I won't settle and I haven't found what I'm looking for as of yet.
    I got divorced 1.5 years ago and haven't been on a single date yet.

    I also don't make the time, quite honestly. I don't put myself out there and I haven't met anyone at all.

    I broke up with my boyfriend when i moved 350 miles away. We both wanted it to work, but logistically it couldn't. I miss the closeness and would love to be in a relationship, but I don't know many people where I am now and I won't date just anyone.

    Cause I'm old, homely and bitter....but my cats like me (probably cause I feed em).

    What MissAnjy said.

    I got divorced myself 2+ years ago and I realized that if (and big IF on that) I ever were to date or get married again, it's not going to be someone I "settle" for. Plus I would like to meet my fitness girls first and basically be a better me before I try to jump into something that gets pretty complicated and emotionally draining.

    Old fashion guy + dealing with codependency = the most effective "friend zone" shield ever.
  • Because our goals/dreams are taking us on two different paths...better to end it now, than to come to this reality later when it's gonna hurt way worse

    Up until recently, I was working 2.5 jobs, going to school full-time, and doing an internship. I didn't have time to go looking for anything but a one-nighter. Unlike some of my gal pals, I'm completely okay with that. I'm very "if it happens, it happens" towards relationships. I've watched some of my friends chase after relationships in the worst way.
  • Massive trust issues with men in general. Husband #1 cheated on me every tine I was pregnant, #2 did it once, and then again, and then online. Stupid, stupid me. Ad I have to ask myself, maybe it was me? Maybe I'm the reason they cheated? Nah, I don't think I want to go down that road again.

    My husband decided he'd rather have an affair with his married ex he hadn't seen in 14 years than have a wife of 12 years and kids. His loss.

    I was the friend zone guy too. then I learned this trick, you tell them how you really feel and some times it doesn't work out but when it does you get to be in a relationship with someone that you can chill with. been married to my best friend for almost 13 years. and yeah we've stayed friends for almost the entire time

    small town, don't get out much, and no one seems interested
  • Because being single is a gift! I have big plans to see and change the world, and I deserve to do so selfishly. The right guy will come my way, but I intend to live my life for me in the meantime :)

    Mostly confidence I guess; don't see I have much to be confident about. I'm also usually the friend or the wing-woman.

    Because I'm tired of being lied to/ treated like crap/ cheated on/ etc. Just easier to do my own thing these days.

    Because I'm not ready for anything serious and I'm sick of random hook ups, I'm coming out of a bad relationship as well. Plus I also lack confidence as well. Doing that whole learning to love myself before loving someone else deal. It's lonely sometimes but I think it will pay off in the end.
  • Posts: 1,483 Member
    Because I just haven't been able to find a good one yet.
  • Posts: 121 Member
    Oops, cross posted, but anyway. I hadn't been putting myself out there much. That is likely the biggest reason. Can't meet anyone if you don;t go out
  • because i like to hookup with as many girls as possible

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