Why are you still single?

Any reasons?
Anniedlr · 26-30, F
My fiancé died in an accident a couple of months before our wedding☹️☹️
Anniedlr · 26-30, F
@SilentObZerver No but I’ve not found a suitable replacement
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@Anniedlr what makes one a suitable replacement?
Anniedlr · 26-30, F

MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
Because I’m a pain in the ass.

I’m single because I refuse to put up with BS.
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@Jeephikelove that means every guy you've ever met gives you BS?

I decided to stay home, and am ending up caring for an elderly parent, and just don't see how i could live alone even let alone with anyone else, which means that alone will be difficult in the sense of getting essentials using a Taxi and so forth, calling businesses to get things fixed, paying the bills, being responsible.

If at the age of i dunno 55 or so and i succeed at being responsible and meet someone then, well maybe, but highly unlikely.

@SW-User

We will always need others and it is okay. I am relying on you right now in a way. It is inevitable no matter how detached we tend to be.

When it comes to how I see dependency, I am very much a realist, struggling with an ego shaped by abandonment. It is difficult to accept help when you grew up with wolves and can't trust others to see you as anything other than their next meal.

I met good people I could/can count on later in life and had to learn to bond. I wasn't born with a good healthy heart and though I am doing great and lead an active life, I will eventually need more help and company to keep the same life style. And I should be more open to the care I am offered by loved ones.

It is smart to accept one's limitations with grace and focus on better ways to experience existence than the conventional. We all are here just trying to find peaceful journeys that grant us purpose. Never look down on your own. When we let others help us too, we are helping them just as much. It's mutual growth.

@Miram You are such a wise soul Miram, i rely on you in these kinds of instances for a cleansing kind of perspective on things, thank you, and i hope we can live through all our trials together via SW for as long as possible. Bless you ♥️
Miram · 31-35, F
@SW-User I love you 🤍
AnonymousJSS · 22-25, F
In a relationship but I think I’ll end it soon.

I’m just too picky.
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@AnonymousJSS picky but you easily let go?

They fear marrying a brain tumor survivor.

@Bleak Yes, maybe it was for me to have focus on spirituality in my life with renunciation of the worldly things.
Cat2001 · 22-25, F
Its complicated, but its my choice
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@Cat2001 how complicated?
Cat2001 · 22-25, F
Because it's my choice now
nedkelly · 61-69, M
@Bexsy You are too beautiful to be alone
Ambroseguy80 · 56-60, M
Because I’m married. 😂
LemonWorld · F
Because he hasn't asked me out 😴
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@LemonWorld but why are you still indoors....just go out with him then
Ontheroad · M
I'm too old and set in my ways to partner up.
RedGrizzly · 26-30, F
By choice. I had to be honest to myself and my family: I'm really not cut out for the family life, let alone having and maintaining relationships of any sort that are healthy. I'm just too spirited, occupied with other things, and have insatiable wonderlust. Then, if I was tied down to someone, I get addicted to them and any ounce of care they give me. Paid the price for that (modern day slavery, credit was destroyed, losing my vehicle, homelessness and lost my pets) because I was love blind to users and trusted them. So....I'm sure there are wonderful people out there but I don't think I'm in a good situation to have a relationship again nor am I the right person to have something like that.
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@RedGrizzly hmmm ....interesting!

Is it the case you fear love because you think it wont be reciprocated?
RedGrizzly · 26-30, F
@SilentObZerver not necessarily because of reciprocation. Even when people I generally like, normally probably would date, and they make it known I caught their eye...I freak out. Not all giddy but like I saw Jason Voorhees out my window. My brain literally said, "one person screwed up your life, lied to you for four years, tried to slander you in public...so anyone so much gives you a wink. Run!" Yeah, I'll get butterfly feelings maybe but I can go back into survival mode really quick from that. I'm no good for it.

Plus, I'm physically unwell and if I somehow managed to have a healthy relationship...I couldn't put that on someone else.
Repete · 61-69, M
Been married twice first one was great , the second time around was a complete disaster and after actually before the divorce I and my daughter moved out and now I’m happily single and planning on staying that way.
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@Repete if the first one was great why did you move to the second one?
Repete · 61-69, M
@SilentObZerver she has passed away, but before that we had to separate because of our daughter ,long story I’ve been through on her years ago.
twistedrope · 26-30, M
Because I'm just not that great at trusting people with pieces of my life and people tend not to be great at handling it.
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@twistedrope interesting
twistedrope · 26-30, M
@SilentObZerver Is it really? I think its just how it is.
nedkelly · 61-69, M
I am NOT allowed to be single, I will be married for 44 years in August 2024

I do go up for parole every 5 years but parole denied
zonavar68 · 56-60, M
I'll be single soon - oh crap I already am. 8-) But like Alice Deejay says you're better off alone.
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
@zonavar68 I love that song.
Sapio · 51-55, M
I'm too comfortable being alone.
KiwiDan · 31-35, M
I don't even know any more
zonavar68 · 56-60, M
Because I want to be.
mindstruggle · 31-35, F
• where to meet people?
• confidence an attractive trait, and I do not have it.
• I’m fat and I work a LOT
• haven’t found someone who can handle my collection of memes 🤨
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@mindstruggle you work a lot and you dont know where to meet people?
mindstruggle · 31-35, F
@SilentObZerver
Yep. ☺️
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
I've been with the same guy for more than 20 years, we just haven't got married.
SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
@MaryDreamilton
You have kids?
MaryDreamilton · 46-50, F
@SilentObZerver No, I haven't. I'm one of four sisters and the only one out of the four of us who never had any kids. All my nieces and nephews are adults now, and my oldest niece is a mother-of-four herself.
Selah ·
Lots of reasons but mostly bc I'm not motivated enough to pursue relationships.
Shadyglow · F

SilentObZerver · 22-25, M
