Whats the biggest reason why your single?

[Weaver31]

Not in the best financial position

Too much damage from past relationships

Less tolerance for BS

Low self esteem

Not wanting a burden....need someone who can help me too

 

[Silkk]

The ones I date that are worth settling down with I don’t wanna settle down with cuz I know I’d get bored.

The ones that are fun and great sexually aren’t ones I should settle down with, they all have issues, party too much, don’t have careers just jobs

Lot of chicks don’t bring much to the table these days except for vagina, and they give that up like it’s nothing. Who am I to invest in someone like that who doesn’t invest in themselves.

As such I use my time being on my purpose...ie working on business, working out or doing other positive things with my time. Been killing it business wise the last couple years, I’m not taking any distractions. Gonna pay off my place completely and keep getting my money up. These broads are a major negative cash flow item.

If y’all focus on your own success and don’t let these bird brains throw chaos into your life, you’ll prosper and a lady will fall into place. And if she doesn’t, who cares, you’re living great regardless.

Real Deal Holyfield

No wonder some of y’all hate everything

Because after being disrespected and dismissed, I calmly told my ex that she was disrespectful and dismissive. She couldn't handle the truth and asked me to leave.
This was yesterday.


Thank God I smashed her beforehand.

Another reason

American women are emotionally damaged. It's only foreign women or American women raised in a foreign household from now on

 

[FeverPitch2]

I need a weird mix of intimacy and being left alone
I fully realize that it's not easy for a woman to navigate that
Once I get involved with a woman, they want to attach themselves to my hip
Smothering me like that only causes me to shut down, which causes deep resentment in women, which leads to big trouble
I need a woman to have my back and keep me company but also allowing me the space that I need to function
I know it can be done, I've had some pull off that balance

I really tried with someone last year, and she broke things off with me. That would have been my only traditional relationship, and I'm 33. Career/lifestyle differences. Options abound, but I have a hard time establishing that kind of deep emotional connection needed for a traditional long term monogamous relationship.

 

[Yinny]

Massive fear of intimacy (emotional)
Trust issues
Not where I want to be
Terrified of tying my life (kids) to a partner

Only man I let meet my fam put me through the wringer, also was the only one I saw as a good friend, confidant and potential hubby/father to my children. Took me a long time to let it go and kim-even worse because people would like to bring him up. There was another I saw potential in but really turned out to be a massive waste of time and energy.

Social anxiety

 

[Unknown Poster]

I enjoy being single too much and having nice things for myself!

Never had this in NYC...but had some women I was dating. Eventually I got exhausted chasing women and stated chasing the paper and my goals.

The dating game has changed. I don't know if its for me anymore. I wanna find the one...but damn...things changed.

The dating game is the worst I’ve ever experienced in my lifetime

 

[CW_1991]

- Late bloomer (the longer you wait the worse the potential prospects to choose from). Took longer than it should have to get my shyt together in life which is what comes first before even trying to be somebody to take seriously in a relationship. At least that's my view. Not the case for others.

- Emotional unavailable/selfishness (don't be caring about most people's problems and needs). Honestly just be looking at these females as a means for me to get my nut off and that's pretty much it.

- Relatively unrealistic expectations (I'm past 30 and finding a single, childless, interesting chick around the same age, with similar hobbies and interests to mine and with a good head on her shoulders is basically impossible to find). That's not even getting into the looks department.

- Too much of a loner/introverted type who doesn't even put himself out there in the real world to really find somebody to begin with. Spend most of my energy on these lame unrealistic dating apps...

- From the Southeastern part of Alabama and the dating pool here is unideal. I feel as though I can't relate to most of the blackw omen down here. I'm also somewhat of an a$$hole/judgy type and usually find something I don't like about the person after a short period of time. Have a low tolerance for BS as well.

- Get bored very easily and find it hard to find other people interesting. I've yet to meet somebody who I'd rather spend time with rather than by myself (in a relationship capacity).

I've pretty much accepted that I'm more than likely not going to have the wife and kids thing happening for me.
