    Whatever comment you want to apply to the question, my only answer, and not a happy one, my husband died. Next time put more thought into a question.
    Clarification: you aren't single you are widowed.

    Sorry for your loss I hope that you can find some peace for your future.

    Ha! I think it's funny when people ask me that. I just tell them the standard stuff. :drinker:

    I haven't met anyone worth giving up my freedom for.
    I'm picky and think like a man when it comes to relationships.
    I have a fear of commitment and don't want to settle for anything less than spectacular.
    My biological clock doesn't dictate my feelings.
    I'm still old school in that, I only want to get married once.

    Two reasons for me. First, I used to have little to no confidence around girls. Second, I enjoy being single too much.

    Because:
    1.) After two divorces, I'm afraid of the proverbial third strike.
    2.) I have a FWB relationship that seems to be all I need.
    3.) I live within a group of small towns, and the availability sucks.
    4.) The dating sites aren't producing enough women I'm interested in, and the ones that I am interested in aren't.

    I am too naive and trusting.

    Scratch that last statement. Because the boys I tend to like are liars.

    because of my weight, I have too high of standards, I have a full-time job caring for my elderly mother so I live with her and I like being able to do as I please when I have some free time.

    Lol with most of these responses a psychologist would have a field day ;)

    Succinctly put - there are other priorities in life presently and being non committal has its benefits ;)

    I'm ugly and way too nomadic. Those two things don't work well together.

    Never mind marriage!!
    There really isn't unless your religion makes it beneficial I guess. People can be committed to each other without a document saying they are legally and financially doomed.......I mean tied together. But maybe that's the pessimist in me talking.

    I'm single 'cause every guy that hits on me is a cheater, or a *kitten*. Or only after sex. No thanks buddy, get the hell out of here.
    Or they turn into complete stalker weirdos.. I do not understand it.

    To be honest, I have no idea. I could start being all analytic and pull myself apart, I do have a crazy personality, think a little bit New Girl and I kind of short circuit around guys I am attracted to. But honestly I know I am a catch. I am beautiful, fun, I have tattoos, I love to laugh. Beats me! It seems the only guys that seem to have the guts to ask me out are nerdy creeper types. LOL

    Because I am not willing to settle, and I haven't met the right girl just yet.

    It's not 100% the absolute honest answer, but it's very close :)
