Do you think you’ll be single forever?

Question

I do. I don’t know how to show interest in a girl. Without making a fool of myself

Kaamraj · Accepted Answer

I do not feel that I will be single forever because I have put in the work and earned the reputation and finances that make me an extremely attractive match in my country for marriage. However, for the decade or so that I was alone, no one paid any attention to me. I went through two life threatening surgeries, rehabilitation, and because of that had to leave my old job, re-educate, re-train, and re-certify for a new job that is completely different. During that time, I tried my level best to get with someone in a relationship, but because I was struggling, no one paid any attention. Had I found someone and they had invested in me, I would not be single nor looking. However, now that I have realized that anyone who finds me attractive would be doing so for the near sole purpose of my status and finances, I refuse to get into such a relationship, so yes by my own choice, I wish to remain single.

Like the majority of men I know, I gave up trying.
. the players with ten tinder accounts and an std collection are the ONLY guys left still playing that game.

Online dating, and obesity ruined normal male female relationships. Who wants an obese women with a list of demands who thinks she's a ten when she's a two? Who expects a six pack and a seven figure bank account and thinks guys under six ten are invisible?

Who would want to marry a women who's slept with ten guys?

I'll take a pass and buy a dog.

I don't really like to say things like this in predicting my future.

They say sometimes the things we speak have a way of coming true.

So I will say this:
This is the longest time since I've started dating that I've been single, not had a guy approach me or have anyone suggest a guy for me to go on a date with.

But a lot has actually changed in my life currently.

So I have to trust that this is happening for a reason.

I've had bad relationships in the past that have left me feeling rather emotional and insecure.

I need to find what makes me happy again.

If that means my future is one of singledom then that is probably what is written, but if I so happen to stumble upon a person, I really hope they are worth breaking this dry spell for, no one wants another page burning chapter in their life least of all not me!

You won't be single forever.. trust me. That would be nearly impossible even if its how u wanted it. How old are u? Well anyways, im pretty good with helping guys out with issues like this whether they're my age or younger. So if ur post is serious & u are legit concerned or want help with this, just let me know. I know how woman & girls think & I understand men pretty damn well too. Plus, I've been through every struggle possible for myself too at some point & got through it & learned from it each time, including issues I probably dont look now like I'd know anything about! But looks are EXTRA deceiving in my case, trust me on that.

aWes0MeNeSs · Answer

I think there's a good chance I will be, considering I simply have no desire for a relationship or much of what one entails. I quite enjoy being alone and don't see that changing any time soon.

Jaumet · Answer

So, you think you will be single forever... because you are scared to make a fool out of yourself with a girl. First thing you must realize is that making yourself a fool for a girl is not only totally acceptable but downright expected of you. Girls are the only ones that if we really like and want are more than willing to be a fool over! There is nothing that you could do to feel foolish about that has been done to the power of infinity before you. Acr the fool, every single one us guys has done some downright foolish things to get a girls attention. That is just called normal male behaviour around a girl we will trip over our own feet for thinking about her.

MarkyyG123 · Answer

I didn't think so but now I wonder very hard, when you try so hard and strive for so much for someone and things happen and choices are made before you can even process it, it makes you wonder what life is all about and do you really know what you thought you know?

lightbulb27 · Answer

no I've been single since, we'll... day 1. I think I'll be married soon, but I'm glad I found a committed girlfriend and we work well together.

It was a loooooong road though... due to my issues. Ya don't get to 55 single and not have some issues going on unless was lost in the amazon or studying apes in the mountains.

Kaneki05 · Answer

Probably.
Since I find too many people dumb for me, and not in the sense I believe I am the smarter than everyone and perfect but more like how the smart kid is the one bullied in a school, meanwhile the dumb jockey is the one who gets the attractive cheerleader girlfriend.
The smarter one finds it harder to get along with people, finds it harder to fit in and finds it harder to find a mate. Which I think I fall into that category.

The_Maphio · Answer

I'm not single since 20 years ago, which is something around 2/3rds of my life so far. Before this one I had short stories for a total of about 4 or 5 years, so I don't really know what being single for long means.
Sometimes I'd really like to feel free and alone, but I hardly ever can.

JBlade · Answer

Probably, I've never met a girl who I thought was special or worth all the trouble for. Trying to court women is too much of a hassle and there's little to no reward for all the effort. Also, most women want things I'm not willing to provide or compromise on (marriage/kids).

AnggieGirl · Answer

Probably be single for the reminder of life. I’ve ready reproduced, I’m done there. I’ve already been asked marriage two times and said no, I’ve been in two long term relationships that ended brutal.
With all that into consideration, why bother again. I’m content and I’m the bread winner anyways

Drumlin2001 · Answer

The only thing holding you back is your own insecurities. Trust me when I say anyone can find someone. I was a 35yr old virgin, never even had a kiss. I would freeze at the thought of getting close to a woman. 4 years on, I've been with my OH for over 3 years, we have 2 beautiful kids. If you want to change you can do.

slatyb · Answer

It's a skill you can learn pretty quickly. Just start saying hello to people you see regularly. I have notes on my phone of the names of the staff at the restaurants and bars I frequent. I don't hit onthe women because I have a partner. If I didn't I would have no problem asking some of the women out.

kitty71 · Answer

Im already in that state. I been single my whole life no boyfriend, no dates no seeing anyone, no kids and currently im still that way. I already give up finding love im not in that age of finding like a real love to be married, my tiem passed for searching that anyway. If I ever find one in the future years but I doubt it it has to be for him to spoil me and take care of me but not in the goal of committment or anything like that much less have kids. No way

For sure, the only time a woman is going to touch me is during diaper changes when I'm a senile old man. The only thing my dick is every going slip into is a shit filled diaper. Man my life sucks But you, you're still young. You might have a chance to turn it around. Me I'm fucked. But I don't care about it anymore. I know my faith and just accept it.

captain_voidwalker · Answer

I don't think I'll be single forever, I know I will be single forever. From a combination of genetics that makes me about as sexy as hot vomit over a pile of hobo shit. And the fact that even if a woman did find me attractive for god knows what reason, I just have to much to lose to risk having a relationship

Avicenna · Answer

There's no reason to think you'll never get a girlfriend. Live your life, though, and become the person you want to be

Anonymous · Answer

I don’t think I will, but I wouldn’t be surprised if I did end up single forever. I have “high standards” and I’m very selective in partners because I don’t want to just settle for someone that is incompatible with me.
