I wont date, I have never ever had a single interesting conversation with a woman in my life.

Wow. I find women usually much more interesting to talk to than men. That is, when I'm not too scared to say anything.

The fact that they are women must be why you find them interesting when listening to them.

Sure. They have a different take. Plus, I just feel more comfortable with women.

im not enjoying being single, but girls for the most part, well they cannot match me, because lowlifes are too unintellectual/closedminded, but "highlives" are too engaged with life, i need someone with a good heart and a good mind and a good soul, and favorably a fair spirit while were at it, but none of them will like the lifeless existence of mine, yet girls with less engaged lives, can never intellectually challange me, and those few that would be able to, are very detached, theres just noone like me

I have a hard time reading girls. And I never approach unless I sense interest. So I almost never approach. My single periods usually last between 1 and 3 years while my relationships last 3 to 9 months.. Though I will always have one girl I am fixated on for several years at a time. I'll see them daily but never even a kiss.. very frustrating. This usually lasts until they get married, move away, or I move away, then I cut all conections.
I've given up for the time being and really have been getting a ton of things done. Happier alone than always settling for second choice.

I'm twenty-one years old and I've never been on a date. Nor have I asked, nor have I been asked. I have no rejected anyone nor have I been rejected. I have not felt the desire to have a relationship nor do I believe that I am prepared for one. Afterall, I can't afford the results of a relationship. Marriage, kids, and et cetera. I'm too broke to make a woman feel happy. When I haven't got the desire to be in a relationship, and can't think of a good reason why I should, then why would I go through all of the trouble?

I'd be willing to give it a shot. But I highly doubt I could ever really make a woman happy.

Anyway, that's my reasoning. Not dating FTW?

I can't quite get some girls out of my head, but I am enjoying being single also!

I suppose I could get a girl if I really worked hard enough at it but I just don't think it is worth it right now. Most people bore me and I need a lot of time to myself. That doesn't really seem to work very well in a relationship.

On the other hand I'm not happily single. I wish the ideal of love that I have in my head were possible but I very much doubt that it is. If anything were to happen between me and a girl it would probably be a drunken gropefest which she regrets in the morning and then goes to the dean's office to accuse me of sexual assault.

Keep hope. I felt much as you do, and found love. Sure, I lost it. But it will happen, as long as your ideals are there.

I'd been trying not dating for quite awhile. Now I'm just failing at getting dates.
