    Because I'm an a55hole, but I'm aware of it. I'm staying single so that I don't force my way onto others - it just wouldn't be fair on them.

    Also, because I don't like having sex. :>

    because I haven't asked him out yet...and I tell everyone else no (I'm a heartbreaker)

    Basically, because I only want what I can't have. I don't give nice guys a chance and only want one *kitten* who told me, "the feelings you have for me are stronger than the ones I have for you." I've tried dating but me not having a filter and being an open book probably isn't a very attractive quality in a woman. Plus, I talk a lot. And probably interrupt too much.

    Plus, my weight gets in the way. I don't have self-confidence issues with my looks, I know I'm kinda pretty. But my weight gets in the way.

    To the OP , I am Sorry for your Loss,

    I'm single because I can't trust myself , I can be here today and gone tomorrow . Does that make any sense ?

    Apart from crazy internet stalkers fast-talking me into a 'relationship' that didn't last a day I've always been single. c: This is because my social skills suck butt, my reclusive nature and I'm pretty much trying to deal with my own issues first before I get involved with anybody on a more than friends basis.

    Funnily enough whenever it comes up in a conversation people always assume I'm taken. : P

    I'm shy and don't get out enough
    I also have a condition that many girls can't get over once I admit it to them. you can guess what that means...
    I must be dense...or naive..but curiosity killed the cat sooo...."condition"??

    I think I must be dense too because I couldn't figure it out.

    I'm not single but if anything ever happened I'd be single because I'm never approached and my standards for "the one" are pretty high. I don't think I could ever just settle.

    For awhile I was just too fat. I hated my body and didn't want anyone else to see it. Now it's okay in clothes but still not great naked. But then, I have a kid and I'm 40, my body is never going to be what it was. But it can get better.

    Meanwhile, I'm contemplating dating again, but I don't want anything serious because I don't want to stay in this area of the country (or in this country at all for that matter) so why risk falling into a serious relationship?

    A friend with benefits would do nicely for now, it's too bad all my friends got married long ago.

    Every guy i get to know and get interested in ends up going for my friends, or tells me several months into dating that he already has a gf/ fiance....I have standards and theyre not stupidly high, but i dont do bull***t or drama and theres ALOT of *kitten* out there!
    So for now im just working on being the best version of me i can be :)

    I am 22 and I take my studies seriously so during the school year I rarely go out and enjoy life like I should. I believe this can be a huge obstacle in meeting new potential partners. Also, I think I am picky. It almost had to be a spark right away. I find it difficult to find feelings for established friends.

    I am not really sure. I have always had trouble getting a man's attention for some reason. All through high school, college, and all throughout my 20s, I pined for men who just looked right through me or did not feel the same attraction I did. I will admit, I am not very social so I have trouble getting out and meeting new people. The majority of my friends are married with children now. There was one guy I just went out with around Thanksgiving who I thought had serious potential, but he too disappeared after a couple of weeks and I have no idea why. I have learned not to look desperate and chase men when this happens.

    I think the best thing to do for now is focus on bettering myself and meeting some personal goals (new job, weight loss, make some new friends, feel better about my life overall). I know that my day will come when I cross paths with someone awesome for me. I think I'm a pretty good catch.... someone will realize that sooner or later.

    I've always been single. I think when I have tired to put myself out there... it just always ended in humiliation and heartbreak. I'm not confident enough in my appearance or my weight so I think that really holds me back. I have always been made fun of and talked about because of my weight and appearance so... I guess I find it hard to believe that anyone would actually be able to like or love me in a romantic way. On top of that, my lack of experience in the relationship dept probably isn't helping either.

    I think I need to be more comfortable and confident with myself,

    this is me to a T i had one serious relationship in my life its sad. i seem to go for the girl i can't have who way out of my league

    I'm single because I just got out of a 6 year relationship. I chose to end it. Unrelated to my breaking up, I want to work on my weight. I'm 287 pounds now. I like women who care about their appearance, and I too need to mirror that. I was in a relationship where I was miserably unhappy. I am happy now. I don't have to worry about my significant others problems. I have enough of things on my plate. That's not to say I wouldn't date again in the near future, but I'm not going out of my way to look until I achieve my goals with my body. I can accept that, and will keep doing me.

    I am toooo FABULOUS!!!!!

    Nah, although i am Fabulous, the real reasons are:

    1. I have trust issues and can be a bit closed off
    2. I can't be arsed to do the whole dating thing right now
    3. My focus is on other things - it'll happen when it happens
