4 Years of being single
Replies
-
I've been single for over 4 years. I consider myself successful, in shape, attractive, etc.
"I just haven't found the right one."
At what age or point do I settle for less just so I can 'be in a relationship'? It'd be nice to stop doing my laundry every week, stop cooking every meal for myself, stop spending valentines day alone... etc.
Is your Mom mad at you?
Did she walk in on you *kitten* again?
She'll start doing your laundry again when she calms down.0 -
I'm so confused, I thought all we cared about was money? It is SO hard to keep up.
thats all part of being told what you want to hear.
All I want to hear is "That was great, what do you want on your sandwich?"0 -
I meet lots of women, but it's never the right person at the right time. I have certain standards like in school or college degree, into some type of fitness, open minded, that I haven't budged on.
As seen by some posts, some people see 4 years of voluntarily being single as me having a problem. If I go in relationship for a few months, then women will see me as desirable and won't be seen as stale meat anymore.
With how awesome I am, I usually get "4 years single? You must be a player."
Or it could be that women recognize that you want to use them as laundry machines and cooks. Maybe if you changed your attitude towards women and the role you want them to play in your life, you'd find that their attitude towards you would also change for the better.
Just a suggestion0 -
Trolls only grow in size proportional to the amount of replies they are able to achieve.
Do not feed the troll with replies.
There are bad trolls and good trolls; this was a bad troll that is becoming a good troll due to a large amount of gullible guppies in this pond.
I'm a hypocrite.

since this is a site where opinions are expressed rampantly, i'll just say that i don't think your reasons for being in a romantic relationship are valid. might as well just hire a maid or something.0 -

Hahahaha oh my god I seriously just choked on my water. Sorry, buddy, but you're too far gone. Agree with many of the previous responses - just hire a maid or give mommy a call. Sounds to me like you wouldn't know what to do with a real woman, anyway.0 -

obviously my opinion on what a real woman is, is different than yours. no need to be rude0 -
I have been in a relationship for over 6 years(married for 5+) and both me and my hubby are still doing laundry and cooking :explode:
We are doing something very very wrong here :sad:0 -

I'm habitually single (are we allowed to slap people when they ask HOW AREN'T YOU MARRIED?!) I have standards as well, and I tend to not budge much either, hey I'm only 25 I am allowed to be picky! I feel like you shouldn't ever lower your stands on things like education and well being, I can't date someone I cannot converse with, besides intelligence is sexy! If you have things like "must be 5'4' and 12 pounds and a rockin body", time to reevaluate, you might meet a chubby girl with the potential to be 'the one' but you are too close-minded to see past that, and understand that weight can be lost.
Thanks for serving your country (if that bit is true) and good luck on your search!
ETA: I hate laundry just as much as the next person, soooo if that's a requirement, ditch it. No one LIKES laundry0 -

i dont think theres anything wrong with wanting someone with a rockin body. if thats what you want, and you lower your standards thats settling. i get it, some people dont care and the "inner beauty is what matters. most guys arent in greek god shape either.0 -

I'm sensing a pattern here among the unhappily single men...but they wont' see it, of course. They're so trapped in their "women are merely creatures of service to me" heads that they can't even conceive that it might be them and not the world's fault.0 -

I WANT someone with a rockin body too, but I also understand that there's a rockin body underneath a layer of fat if people want to work at it. I was only suggesting, that maybe he look at that as a malleable 'requirement' people gain and lose weight all the time, if he finds someone who is perfect, but is currently overweight, yet going to the gym and eating right to correct that, he shouldn't wash his hands of her.
Also, you're the guy who insinuated that all a woman has to offer is laundry, cooking and sex. So I basically take everything you say with an entire gallon of salt, not just a single grain0 -

Bless your heart, asking a woman "if she doesnt cook or clean what does she offer, sex?" is the douchiest comment I have seen all week, and I hear some douchey things. I say this from a small town in Texas, thank you very much, and advise you kindly shove your 1950's ideals up your *kitten*. In 2014 I aspire to be more than someone's housewife, barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen0 -
bumping, just so I can watch the ensuing hilarity.0

Whoa there! Don't be lumping me into that bracket. My mother taught me to look after myself when I was 15 and I've been doing so ever since. My house is spotless!0 -
I don't think it's about settling, I think your attitude changes. 2 years ago was very anti relationships, now i am happy being single but also more than open to the idea if i do meet someone who i find cute, funny etc and sees the same in me to give a relationship a chance which i don't think i would have done 24 months ago.0
