daryn,

I wanted to finish reading the thread before responding.

The subject line is ambiguous, and judging by the responses I think a lot of people are interpreting it as I did, in which "single" means "not dating anyone but their hand" and then citing some personal issues/deformities as the reason(s) why.

So if I was to interpret it you're way, then the answer is that I'm single because being married is f'in retarded IMO.

[/ QUOTE ]

I didnt. Single = having no ties to one particular girl, if you consider "dating" single, than Im not single, but thats a dumb definition imo.

classes of commitment imo:


marriage
girlfriend
dating
cuz hound
loser/socially inept

i just broke up with my girlfriend of 3 years. she wanted to get married.

anyway i'm single now. it's alright. haven't been single in a long time (was in a long term relationship before the one i just got out of) and i'm going to probably keep it this way.

pros:
[x] have some money
[x] in decent shape, always in the gym and getting better
[x] have nice clothes
[x] am a jerk to women which they love
[x] have a ballin' downtown office

cons:
[x] i am not white
[x] i live in seattle where there are not a lot of single women
[x] my car is a piece of dicks
[x] my apartment is not in the greatest area (for now)

Maybe, but it was just some sort of abstract visual of an angry white guy yelling at people.

If I like them, they don't like me, and if they like me, I don't like them.

[/ QUOTE ]

sums it up pretty well

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm translating this as: I'm into girls that are out of my league, and not attracted to the ones that are in my league.

I have a friend who is eternally single because he refuses to lower his standards. He's looking for 9's and 10's and he definitely can't pull 9's or 10's for various reasons.

[/ QUOTE ]

Somewhat true, but not exactly. I get wasted and lower my standards all the time for random hookups - and lower the to below my "league."

On paper, I'm a pretty damn good catch (looks, intelligence, aspirations, dollars, car, bedroom abilities, personality etc etc are all above average in my own opinion). I'm just not very good at meeting girls and getting them interested in the first place. So I just get wasted and go home with whatever sloot is desperate to bang someone. They always want to keep hanging out but when I'm sober, I want nothing to do with them.

I get lucky once in a while and meet someone worthwhile. Just doesn't happen often, which explains why I've been single for coming on two years. Basically I just need to work on my confidence and game with women I could see being interested in instead of trying to pick up whoever is dumb/drunk enough not to care.

I know I'd only date them as a temporary solution, and I'm not into using people. So, single it is.

[/ QUOTE ]

This is another thing for me. I quickly decide what girls are "long-term" material, and am somewhat picky (similar to Cardo's response.) So even if I know some cool chicks who I'd enjoy dating, I have trouble approaching them about relationship stuff and can't shake the mindset that "I'm using them," even though I know that's somewhat ridiculous.
