That they are better off alone and not with anyone and just remain single?

Within the last few weeks or longer I have kind of thought that I would and might be better off by myself. I mean I don't think I am asking for or looking for too much or even anything out of the ordinary, I think what I am looking for is fairly realistic. I am not looking for perfection by any means, if some think that the Barbie doll stereotype is perfection well that's their opinion and everyone is entitled to it but that's NOT what I am looking for, honestly its kind of a turn off and the qualities attributed to the Barbie stereotype.

I have been told I am a all around good guy and I think I am but because I don't play the games that some of the girls seem to play- all the ones I have meet or talked to seem to play that it means I should be single? -games don't do it for me. I have to wonder if there are really nice good hearted girls out there who really and truly are a all around good girl, and REALLY DON'T play games.

Everyone has flaws, I have mine and you have yours that's what makes us who we are one of mine is that I am honest, ok well maybe its not a flaw for some I don't think its a bad thing but because I am who I am its a bad thing? I don't know anyone out there actually like and really look for someone who tries to be as honest as they can with them selves and others especially one he is interested in?

What am I looking for? Well I will be honest opps there's that flaw again. Lol I would like a girlfriend/companionship but to start out as friends is more than ok.

I mean don't get me wrong I don't want to be alone for the rest of my life but I have seen and heard enough that marriage isn't appealing?

Were we meant to be alone? Or with someone? I often think maybe we were meant to be alone who knows.

Ok now that's funny, me and you - think alike! But were meant to be alone? Now before I answer your question I'll say something else. We humans ever since we are born are taught to be with someone else by our side, try to remember when you were at least 6 years old - who did you always play with? Who did you always walk with? Who always held your hand when crossing the street? Answer: a person! Who? It might have been your father or your mother, it might have been your teacher, your uncle, aunt, etc. Point being we were never alone! Just cause we choose to be alone doesn't mean all our lives we are going to be alone! Everything takes place in its own time. The question to your answer: NO we are not meant to be alone! Simple as that.

Marriage - last year in statistics 55% of marriages ended up in divorce but what we never realize is sometimes marriages don't work cause we don't even try to make it work! You know how many sites there are for married couples who want to cheat on each other cause they don't love the person they are living with and the only reason they are staying with that person is for security. You know how stupid that is to cheat on someone you don't love knowing that other person loves and cares about you. By the way this was on the Montel Show. People these days only get married for one thing - security not love. Love will never exist within that relationship maybe it will as the years go by - but that I doubt! We forget the true bond of marriage when two people are both given their vows - they don't really listen all they do is go "uhuh, go on - huh, what did he say? Oh well maybe next time I'll get it! " A lot of us pick that one person for their status - for the way they look on your arm as you walk across Broadway. Women especially we are so picky when it comes to getting married to someone - we pick one of the most attractive guys just to have good looking babies! And then we don't want to admit this but we all do this - no matter what anybody says we pick an unattractive person just to look better than that person! Do you see a pattern to this? We are all at fault for thinking the way that we do - marriage is appealing we just make it unappealing! The best advice I can give is do what your heart truly desires! You are not meant to be alone and the right person is just around the corner you'll just find her when you least expect it! And the fact that you wanna be alone for now - I get that same feeling I think you probably get it cause you see the way relationships end up so you start to think I will always be alone! I think like that I wanna be alone cause I see that but I still have faith and hope and that's what keeps me going everyday in life. No you won't trust me on this! NOBODY IS MEANT TO BE ALONE!

Question Asker No its not that I want to be alone, just every single girl all I ever get is lies likes and yes you guessed it more lies and games, the occasional crazy chic and it really needs to end I can't take it any more and sick of putting up with it. They actually think I believe them which I think is funny. I am not looking for someone less attractive, looks to a point don't matter that much I think but an attraction is nice and I think should be there. I really don't know any more, tired of it all. - 4 months ago
Answerer Well you sound like your losing it - question where do you meet these girls? Well at least you can see when they play games on you I know this guy who broke up w/his ex who was using him some1 explained to him that she was using and just got back together w/her again and once again she's using him and he doesn't even realize it & you shouldnt give up I'm not at least for a long time! If you need to talk just message me or here whatever you like! - 4 months ago
Question Asker No not losing it, just sick of it I meet the girls mostly online and yes I am sure that's part of the problem, but I won't ask a girl out in real life , I did a few times when I was younger but boy o boy did I smarten up fast, I don't have much or any desire what so ever to ask any girl out I see, so need less to say I have a theory on dating, its just one big game can't stand it and no desire to date(in the traditional sense) if that means ill be single for ever oh well - 4 months ago
Answerer Ok so wait you meet them online and they turn out to be jerks in my sense and the girls you meet in real life you have no desire for? Maybe ur problem with girls is fear of rejection I mean I could be wrong but listen if that's the case you shouldnt be afraid we won't bite and if 1 rejects you oh well brush it off plus she didn't deserve you in the first place! - 4 months ago

I totally agree with you. Personally for me, I'm tried of putting myself out there and having that not be good enough. And also, just like you, I'm tried of playing games and not getting to the stuff that really matters in a relationship. Sometimes I think that maybe I'm not meant to be with anyone. And other days I hope I do.
I think I could be content and happy all by myself. Not all people need a girl or a guy in their life to fulfill themselves. That maybe they're happy being who they are and doing what they love.

But to give you some hope, there are girls out there who want a nice guy. A guy that doesn't play games, who isn't using them, and is overall a good guy. We're all looking for someone special in our lives but don't want to get hurt. People play games so they don't have to open their hearts up to people and give them to the chance to be hurt. It's a defensive mechanism. And if you can get passed that, I think you'd be ok.
Also, marriage is something that takes time and effort from each person involved. I've seen my fair share of unhappy couples but there are always couples who work together and are happy. Just because some people aren't happy in their mariages that doesn't mean that all are. There is hope, you just have to believe the best in people. Understand why they do the things they do, and I'm sure you'll get some great girl.

I wish you the best of luck and may you find the girl that's right for you.

Question Asker I completely agree with you to a point and could discuss this topic with anyone. Little girls apparently want what they want so that means they will lie lie lie and play games and I am just sick of it all. I don't truly believe girls are looking for a nice guy without games they may say it but I have yet to meet a girl and actually mean it and go somewhere. I mean I know physically what I like and personality wise and the latter means more but attraction is nice only initial and should be there. - 4 months ago
Answerer Well if you can't agree or accept that there are girls out there who want a nice guy then yeah you should give up. You can't believe the worst in people. How are you supposed to get to know someone if you're judging her the whole time. You have to give them a chance to prove themselves to you. If they can't, move on. - 4 months ago

Human are not born to be alone, however there is time we have to leave the people and find your self, once you find it, you become the game. And you will no longer play the stupid game of others. So go find your self Jr.

I agree with anonymous any chance I can join the club.
And let me say you sound very mature and have a good head on your shoulders.
It seems like with some people they are damned if they do or damned if they don't
No matter what they do or how hard they try,i can relate.
How about a high 5

Question Asker Thanks, but seems how I bring up how I feel or how I have been feeling I somehow get ridiculed because you get some girl trying to defend all girls when believe you be there is absolutely nothing to defend I know what I have dealt with and heard so until a woman not so much a girl comes along and changes my view I am sticking to the original question/feeling - 4 months ago

Ya, I'm totally feeling that way right now. Not that a person in my life wouldn't be nice. But I'm begging to think there is no such thing as miss right. Anywhere. So I guess ya, I do feel I'm better off on my own.

I think SUM41 says it best, "I'm better off on my own. "

When you talk about girls playing games with your mind, it is so true and it is so cruel. Supposedly my ex-girlfriend whom I dated for one and a half years only liked me for the first month, and the rest of the relationship she was just playing a mind game on me. That stupid bitch. Well. I know how you feel, correct me if wrong, but what I am reading is that you are sick of going out with girls whom aren't your type, and having a crashing end to it. Well here's the thing bro, you're never gonna find that perfect girl unless you date other girls. For example, (i know its a movie) Heartbreak Kid. He sees this girl and he thinks she amazing, marries her, then holy shit! She's horrible! Life is the same except the other way around. You date a girl, and you find out later that she is that perfect girl you were looking for. I feel like I'm not making perfect sense, but what I'm trying to say is that, you need to try the girls in a relationship, otherwise your never going to be able to tell whether a girl is meant to be a wife/girlfriend or a really good friend. Good Luck.

Question Asker Thats messed up for the first month huh, if I found that out she would be gone. It never gets to a relationship nothing more than maybe hanging out a few times if that maybe even once then they just poof disappear- I swear they are all magicians. They disappear lie, or make things up that they expect me to believe no girl sticks around long enough because the must have perfection I guess, or I don't play into their game of chasing them see ya not for me, frustrating to say the least, can't do it - 4 months ago

What pickup lines do you use to start a conversation with someone you are attracted to?
PICK UP LINES SUCK!!!! really they do I believe that the best way to impress a girl is to either be funny or yourself, I opt for the latter although I am a bit weird :P ok a lot weird O_o

How do they typically respond?
That depends on the person some people love certain things others hate those same things you can never tell how a person will react

Do I have the right approach?
