Eh...typical arfcommer I guess (well the stereotype, not how most of y'all are).

23, had two girlfriends, one for 6 months, one for a year and a half, neither one worked out.   Hard meeting people at all.     Liked having someone around to be around/connected to.     Would be nice to meet someone but after the last two super-burns I'm not in a rush I guess.

 
    Rather be dating than single that's for sure, even the shitty times with someone were better than the shitty times without.  That said, I'd rather be without than choose a shitty one again.

I'm happy a lot of the time.  Sometimes it'd be nice to have someone to spend time with.



I'm 30, financially comfortable, and it's nice buying toys whenever I want and still saving plenty of money.  My bank account keeps growing, and so does my gun collection.  I have a truck, a classic car, and 3 motorcycles in my garage.  I live alone in a pretty nice house in a nice part of town.  And I can vacation wherever, whenever I want as long as my work schedule allows it.  I can get laid whenever I want (this wonderful thing called tinder makes it unbelievably easy!).  So all of that is pretty fuckin awesome.




But there are times I really miss having a good woman to come home to, and I'm old enough and financially secure enough now that I think I'd like to have a family.  I won't force anything, but I do hope it comes around in the next few years.

Being single had quite a lot of good points....being married with kids is the polar opposite but also has its good points.  I love my kids and my wife.  I do miss the freedom of being single.  Wouldnt trade what I have for anything however.

Nah, don't worry about me. I broke it off after she decided to shout at me and give me the silent treatment. I can go pretty far and escalate things.




If I'm right, she's probably feeling bad about herself for the past few weeks and would probably try to get back with me sometime in the near future.

Attempt #1 was a NSFW Snapchat pic of her sent to me. Wondering what Attempt #2 will be, and it ain't gonna be a pregnancy play for damn sure.

Dating is hit or miss for me.  I've been out with guys I liked but who aren't done skirt chasing.
I've also been out with guys who want to settle down but who brought little to the table, or guys who were needy and clingy to the point it was a complete turnoff.  
I wont settle.  I'd rather be single than settle.

Never been married, last long term relationship was 13 years ago.

To be honest, I prefer being single.  Lots less drama, and it's really nice being able to do what I want when I want.

It'd be nice to find the right woman, but after trying the dating scene here for a couple of years, it's a lot easier to say the hell with it and do my own thing.

Too much crazy out there.

so the story goes.

like the yes song says. "there's no real reason to be lonely."

i guess that's true. hell, on this forum alone i've been told to get out more, change my lifestyle, ect. a million times. i appreciate the advice, but i just don't care enough to do any of that stuff.

i'm not me anymore. i'm someone else, who has been on autopilot for about a year and half. nothing really makes a difference to me anymore. it's all just a waste of time..

i'm just comforted in the knowledge that some good people here are having a happy, cheerful christmas season with their wonderful families. i wish them nothing but the best.

it's also my understanding that some users have experienced great loss this holiday season. i sincerely hope they find peace.

I haven't had a girlfriend in 7 years.  Nor have I ever been great with the ladies.  I find a friend every now and then, but nothing ever comes of it.  I feel resigned to being alone.  It's not all bad, all the time.  It's nice being able to do whatever, whenever.  I do get lonely as fuck sometimes though.

I've never dated an Asian, but from what I have seen, most of them are like American girls that take it a little even further to the extreme.
They are sterotyped as being the most desirable women, so I think it is getting to their heads.

Same here.

I'm mostly happy being  single. Sometimes It'd be nice to have a relationship, other times I'm all; "Fuck that. I can do what I want, when I want." Provided I have the funds and time, that is.

Then there's other times where co workers say things like: "Man, don't you just hate when your old lady does / says / tells you that you can't / etc. etc."; and I just look at them and say, "I wouldn't know".

Ok I am no bible beater...You can tell by how many cuss words I use on here *lol*

But I am going to tell you, he hears you and he answers prayers, I promise you.  He might not give you the answer you want, but he listens.

It's a whole bunch of horse poop when people say things like well if you are happy with yourself, then single life is awesome.  It is soooooooo not true.  You can be super happy with yourself, and when you crawl into bed at night, cuddling with yourself is pretty unhappy.  Going to the movies, I don't care how happy you are with yourself, sucks donkey testicles when you are by yourself.

Keep praying for God to send someone into your life.  I will be praying for ya.

It is not easy, but there has to be something around the corner.  Misery can't last forever...
