    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.

    My wife thought my girlfriend was a selfish, immature brat. Ironically, she was right. /fml

    Only attract people that are: married, crazy, weird, and/or only want sex.
    And online dating sucks. :smiley:

    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.

    are you a pod?

    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 for the loss of your wife. You ARE worth more.

    As for the question, I am single because I'm widowed.

    There are not a lot of men trying to date me, there are a lot of men trying to f me. There is a big difference. I'm allergic to BS, so I'll just date myself :D

    I'm boring

    If you're a Scorpio, I highly doubt that. You just need to find the one that gets you out of your shy shell, so you can bloom into the life of the party.

    Because I haven't met anyone lately that I can't imagine being without. At least no one that is available to me anyway.

    my self confidence is low and I always seem to end up liking people that are out of my league and being too scared to talk to them.
