Why are you single?

[LayshK]

Low self of esteem and confidence where I just don't feel like I deserve any of that.
Also scared of ever dating because people at my age only care about sex, so I know most will just lie to me and I don't want to be just for sex anymore. You just start to feel hallow.
also mostly it is that the guys I like are always straight >.<

i was in a wonderful relationship for 10 years ... he died 10 years ago

since then i haven't made much of an effort to re-enter the dating world ... i've allowed myself to say everything from "too busy w/ work" ... to "i'm emotionally unavailable"

truth is, i'm just too lazy right now to invest emotions and time into a relationship

i have a gay friend with benefits whose partner also died about the same time as my guy, and we are great friends and have occasional sex, but just never seem to make the hurdle into a "relationship"

i really do miss having my man to cuddle with and just share the evenings with ... i hope i get over my malaise really soon .... i'd love to have a good man again to share my life with ... and i'm a damn good, decent person and i deserve a man

Wouldn't have it any other way!

In a second thought, if I would know the answer probably I wouldn't be single

God made me single.

1. Because I'm not gullable enough to believe in "trust or love"
2. I'm complicated...
3. I'm a whore...

I am single because I live on a small isolated island and do not put in enough effort to go to the city. The young gay men here are lacking a brain, the gay old men are lacking youth, tact, and power of attorney.

I like being single. I didn't know I liked it for a long time, and kept trying to not be single because everyone else in the world seemed to be not single or hell-bent on becoming not-single. But then one day I realized that I don't much like sex, I don't like sleeping in the same bed with anyone or even the same room if I can help it, I don't like cuddling, I don't like holding hands, and I don't like anyone in my space 24/7... so there was absolutely no reason in the world for me to be in a relationship.

Boy was that a relief! I am so much happier since I discovered that. I still hanker occasionally for romance, and will occasionally consider dating websites, but the urge passes.
