I though Id dedicate my 3,000th post on living the single life. I used to live my life thinking that having a serious long-term relationship and eventual marriage was all that I wanted. Seeking a soul mate to share afternoon picnics in the park, a significant other that "completes you", someone that makes you laugh, cry, and feel happy. I spent a long time searching for that perfect person. After years of psychopaths, posessive freaks, snobs, b!tches, whores, and my personal favorite - DRAMA QUEENS, I have come to the conclusion that being a single man in America is really a great thing. Maybe this is a selfish notion. No it is a selfish notion. Do what I want - when I want. Have my apartment as clean or neat as I want. Save hundreds of thousands of $$$$$$$$$$$. Little responsibility. I ask the single people this question: Could you live the rest of your life single? I think its possible for me...... Of course this is probably just a weird phase in my life....
I've always hated being single, though. I love the feeling of being in love and having someone in love with you.
I think we all know you hate being single. How you holding up by the way? Me, I'm young, being single is how I like it right now. I'd like to get married by the time I'm 30. I'm not gonna force it though. If I find the right one, I'll try and marry her.
If not being single is what you want, and you want a girl who is generous, nice, and good looking.....and perhaps you are ready to settle down.......I guess the best bet would be to go get a Christian girl.
You lonely b*stard So what your saying is that a jar of vasoline and a box of kleenex will take you a long way. Kidding ... Congrats on 3000 mark and your true girlfriend .......Hannah
AMEN MY BROTHA!!!! I've honestly never been happier in my life. It's been 3 months, but I have no desire to be in a serious relationship anytime soon. Having too much fun. You just described my ex to a T. Get this, I get back from Surfside Saturday evening, and the callerID tells me she called twice during the day. So I'm chilling, eating star pizza & watching a movie with this girl, and the phone rings. It's the ex. Between the hours of 10PM and midnight, the crazy beyotch calls 28 TIMES. I never answered, and she left no messages. Just kept pounding redial I guess. I unplugged the phone for about 30 minutes, and when I plugged it back in, as soon as the jack was connected, the phone rang. So the phone stayed unplugged for the rest of the night. Freakin' uberpsycho.
had a VERY similar situation happen to me one time. new girlfriend was over...ex calls out of the blue (knowing i had gone to a concert with new girlfriend that we used to talk about going to when we were dating)...new girlfriend can totally see in my face that it's the ex calling...that i'm uncomfortable...then i have to explain that there's nothing left between us. blah blah blah.
Drewdog, I absolutely agree with you. Being single f*ckin' rocks. I too have had my share of b!tches, pyschopaths, and drama queens. I can't say I've ran across too many whores though, although I wouldn't object to it. Anyway, I recently left a four yr relationship and didn't realize what hell it was until afterwards. My house is clean, I can clean something and it doesn't get dirty unless I muck it up. I have a lot more money. I can do WHATEVER, WHENEVER I want. Yea, it's nice to always have someone to do stuff with. To share things with. But the trouble isn't worth it. I'd rather date and have that new feeling all the time. To have the girl wear her good underwear for me. -High Fidelity F*ck marriage. F*ck having kids. I don't think it's for me. So to answer your question, yes, I can be single forever. The only caveat to this is the women you meet. As we get older, women will be wanting to settle down more and more. So that leads to shorter and shorter relationships, which isn't a bad thing. But I'm beginning to wonder, I'm 27 now, plenty of single women out there. But as I get older, into my freakin' 30's and 40's, how many good ones will be left? And then, how many will be without kids? PS. For those into that whole marriage thing, no offense meant.
No offense taken! Do us all a favor...if you don't want kids...please, please, please don't have any. We have enough of that already.
