I don't think I've really ever been bitter about it.
Before I got my first boyfriend I had a hard time adjusting when my big brother got a girlfriend. Like I didn't like he suddenly texted someone else all the time and didn't give me the attention he usually did - we spent a lot of time together growing up.

And I was hoping and wishing for a boyfriend for so long. Every New Year, I wished for a boyfriend. And I motivated myself to brush my teeth every morning with the thoughts that "what if this guy wanted to kiss me" xD
I was so in love with the idea of a boyfriend that when I got into my first relationship, I was much more in love with the idea of it all, than the actual guy.

But bitter? No. At most I've been hopeful

I’ve never been jealous of dating couples but I do feel bored because there is no one for me to wake up to and cuddle with.

Most of the time I like being single and when I look at the dating market I typically wish to stay this way. However, sometimes I’m annoyed about not being in a committed relationship or experiencing being with a girl I may like.

[NathanDavis]

nope... been single five times (in between, before and after four relationships) in my life and it goes months and I've always been fine with that, no reasons to feel bitter, frustrated nor desperate about any of it

[Celtero]

I suppose. Bitter for the fact that the world is the way it is to make being in a relationship undesirable. Those sorts of things should be natural and good but here we are where it's a huge pointless headache that winds up making you feel like shit no matter how you cut it.

[BurbankRob]

Yes, I've been bitter about being single. I sometimes felt like the women I knew were too picky. Then I thought that maybe there was something fundamentally wrong with me. Now I've decided that no one is willing to commit to a guy in his fifties who has never been married.

[ChrisMaster69]

Nope, I was single from December 2019 to April 2021, like the longest time ever and nope not bitter at all.

It’s just a fact of life we go through long dry spells, however it’s pointless being bitter etc.

[Celtero]

Wow, that's sooooo long.

Maybe in my past when I was younger. Not really now. I'd rather be with someone who truly loves me. Then be with someone yet still alone because the relationship was empty.
But I do think I'm like most guys. Ya always want to know why. Why didn't it work out? Why wasn't she interested. And you know it'll do no good to ask.
I've learned to keep a certain distance now. I'll never let myself care for someone so much that I'm not OK if they leave.

I've been single all but 10.5 years of my life! I don't like it at all but, I've never been bitter about it just, not able to understand WHY it's happening! I thought girls LOOKED FOR nice guys!! At 6' 9, you can BARELY miss ME!!

I wish that I was single. Maybe we all want what we don't have. The grass is not always greener on the other side, especially in marriage and with women. Consider that when you set your mental state,. It might not be as bad as you think to be single, unless you're a hypergamous female

[Jamie05rhs]

Nope! Never. I am grateful for all of the blessings that God has placed in my life. I have a lot to be thankful for.
My relationship status is just a continual quest that I will patiently pursue and continue working on day by day!

[Slartybartfast]

Nope, I've been single longer than gag has been around lol.

[genericname85]

maybe a little bit at times. but right now i'm putting no effort at all into "not being single", so i can't really complain.

[serious]

No, I am very happy. Always happy. Never had any regrets.

[pleasestopthis]

No but that's because I'm avoiding it. I prefer being single.

[Dchrls78104]

Not bitter: too busy simply trying to stay sane and survive.

[Anonymous]

Yes why the fuck don't you people want to hug and nuzzle me, I make warm cuddle noises

[Anonymous]

I was jealous for a while, but I have to say I'm happy for those that have found true love!

[Recurrence]

I’m not bitter, I’m anxious and sad about it

[BobbyC65]

Being single is starting to be very boring.

[Joker_]

Never been single in my life

[Texaskid1]

How do you date inside a closet.

[Joker_]

I date the closet

[Texaskid1]

As I suspected.

[ChiPaPa]

I was a very long time.

[siseñor]

[clampfan101]

No. Just lonely.

[Jmmmfi4]
