    I was supposed to be a size six, spend my time cooking fabulous gourmet meals, constantly looking sexy, tricked out in heels, mini skirt, with flawless mani, pedi, and waxed everywhere. I was also supposed to have an incredible six figure salary, but only work 40 hours a week or less, never go to the gym, clean house and iron in my free time...and be enthusiastic about a vacation to see his Mother in Oklahoma, twice a year, for a week each time.

    Being single is a dream compared with that gig.

    thats a dangerous bar to hold relationships too...a love movie.

    lol I don't... it's the emotions I had when I first met what I thought was the love of my life lol just to feel them feelings again would be amazing ( the laughter the butterflies ) it's more like moths these days :joy:

    ps. no idea what the movie is I just picked a gif :joy:

    I'll make you feel electricity. Come sleep under the stars with me.

    ps. It looks a bit like a scene from "The Notebook"? maybe not.

    I lost a wife in child birth. Ive dated... Usually not the right woman. Dated a 23 year old for a time but the 300 texts a day from her drove me nuts. Dated a woman recently but her life was even busier than mine so she just really wanted a FWB and I am worth more than that. So I am prob too picky. I want a woman who loves kids, funny, passionate, adventurous, stable, active, sweet and not crazy. Thats evidently a crap load to ask

    sorry to hear about your wife : (
    I know how hard it is to raise a child on your own... and no doubt you are doing an amazing job raising the little one ; )
    seems like you just haven't found the right one, and too right you should be picky! :joy: you have a child to think about and no doubt you want a women that will care as much as you do for your child.. and it takes someone very special to come into an already made family, and make them their own. hopefully you find the descripted lady :wink: she's out there! :agree:

    In my mind I'm single. Why is it so easy to get stuck in *kitten*?

    I'm just really really badly anti-social. I can't even make friends on here because... I just find it hard to relate to people.

    I didn't communicate better, and ignorantly believed in fairy tale happy endings

    Happens to every relationship, whether they stay together or not. Reality is a HUGE slap in the face at some point, but then it makes things easier once you accept it.

    Because the men I want are never the men I should have, and I know this.

    Because I am wildly insecure about my body, and when people ask me out or make moves, I firmly believe it's in jest.

    I know I'm not alone out there...

    Plus meeting guys at bars is annoying. Let's be real here.

    I'm with you on that one - goin to bars is something I do expressly with my friends, not for meeting people.

    The only people who are attracted to me are the ones who want a mother rather than a wife and I will NOT be a woman who takes charge of everything. My Mom was that kind of wife and I saw what it did to my Dad over their 50 year marriage.

    I am very content with myself and who I am. I don't need another for validation, although I do get lonely sometimes.
