I'm a "miss" by choice. So far, I haven't had a good reason to change my status to "mrs."When I do, I'll say "I do."

I'm single because bad luck has become my best friend, I swear. I've tried to put myself out there several times, but each time it's never worked. It always ends up that the girl is taken, every single time. I don't purposely go looking for ones that are, but it just keeps ending up that way for whatever reason. I'm sick and tired of it.


That's why I've given up. I'm not taking a chance of this happening ever again.

I was curious as to what people's answers to this question might be. I am currently single because I have yet to meet anyone interesting.
Because Olga didn't call me back by Thursday at 3pm. I think she was passive aggressive when she handed me her business card, said "call me" but she didn't return my phonecall? Lol, dude that was killer.

Perhaps because and I say this most emphatically in a cogent and succinct manner, you haven't met a "colorful" wordsmith yet. Peace and happy grammering to you!

One of the main reasons for me is that I just never had the free time... I spent over ten years taking care of my father by myself before he passed away a couple of years ago, and it is just taking me a long time to even try. It's not that I necessarily want to be single, it's just more difficult for me to find someone at this stage in my life....

Guess I don't really want to settle for less But again, I haven't been looking actively and I told myself to concentrate on my job for now.

I honestly don't know why I'm single. I fully expected to be married to the man of my dreams long before now.


I don't date someone for a couple months and move on. I'm a relationship-girl. I have had 5 relationships that lasted from 1.5 years to 3 years each. Each time, he married the first person he dated after we broke-up (so I obviously didn't leave them feeling bitter about relationships). Apparently,they mistookme to be "training wheels" for married life.

I'm single because I seem to go for the wrong men. Now I'm trying to work on myself before finding my next mistake.
