    I've been single my whole life and I'm really starting to f***ing hate it.

    If you really are 22 then you've got plenty of time.

    7 years I have been single and its been great fun, anyway last night I got a call from an old mate asking to nip round to watch a DVD as she was bored.
    2 hours later for no reason she leapt on me during the film and my long break has come to an end :D

    It was very very good :D

    :D - Stoked!!
    :blush:^_^

    Your money is your own
    Watch what u want on the telly
    No nagging burd moaning 24/7
    Go out when you want
    Shag anyone you want
    No fear of the other half claiming half your assetsafter the inevetible break up

    Why do so many people get married?

    Sometimes. I do like my own space and doing my own thing but sometimes I get lonely. Pity I am so ugly and odd that no one would be attracted to me.

    Due to mental health I'll probably be single till I die

    No.

    Not any more.

    I'd like to find someone special. I'm sure everyone wants that. The feeling of sharing your life with someone.

    Absolutely.

    There are times that I want to want to have a relationship, a partner but that is my heart, my hormones trying to tell me that rather than my head.

    IMHO, some people, and I include myself in this are not cut out for relationships. If it's for you, if it makes you happy, then great but for people like me, it is not the be all and end all of life. :)

    Apart from a few month relationship a few years ago, I have been single all my adult life. I'm 29 now. I'd love a long term relationship. It'll happen some day. I hope.

    I liked being single for short periods when I was younger just to recharge but the older you get the less appealing it is. I'm in a relationship and my best friend is single and playing the field, has had so many women in the last 5 years but is very very lonely by his own admission and wishes he had someone who means as much to him as my partner does to me.

    That's why having a relationship is not for me. I have little or no empathy. Relationships mean nothing to me. People don't mean anything to me in in that way. I'm not an emotional person. :)

    I've never been in a "proper" relationship so it's all I know really.

    I can understand that. I'm not really in a position to offer any real constructive advice considering my own situation, but I can certainly wish you luck and hope you do meet someone :)

    To say 'do you enjoy being single' is to say 'do you enjoy being hated by every member of the opposite sex that you've ever come across'.

    yes..I am bitter about it.

    That's certainly not been the case for me. There's been an element of curiosity, for sure, when I say that i've accepted i'll remain single for life, but nobody has ever been hateful about anything.

    I have an old friend who never wanted to get married when he was young, then when he was in his fourties he started to toy with the idea. He met someone, had a very short courtship and, after having been married for approximately three months, was getting separated. He ended up having
    an affair with someone pretty soon afterwards.

    Does anyone think the problem was he didn't get to know her well enough?

    I love being single even more given that I've just "dumped" a guy I went for a date with on Friday.

    Who then proceeded to text me endlessly, about 60 times a day, about what cup of tea he was having, what food he was eating, what music he was listening to, what he was doing in the gym.... etc.

    Would love to find real and true love with a good partner soon though, but he's gotta be a good 'un, and the appropriate one too.

    And therein lies the problem.

    My ex has just ended his marriage. Which lasted all of 26 days.....

    After 7 years single and after getting nailed by a female friend earlier this week I have decided that

    A) I missed Sex
    B) I am pretty good at it (and I am only average size downstairs at best - 5" to 5.5" or so)
    C) Making a woman cum is one of the best things on the planet ;)
    D) I no longer enjoy being single and want a bit more than a f-buddy asap tbh!
    E) - Doesn't matter - had sex :D

    Going back later for more after a booty call demand ;)
    lol

    Being in a relationship since i was 15, i've actually never been single in my adult life.
    I have no idea what i'd do if i was suddenly single. Wouldn't know where to start.

    I don't think thats true, you just haven't met the right person yet ;)
