I very well maybe. I'll admit, it's not like I try very hard to find a girlfriend. I'm not one of those guys who keep trying and keep getting rejected. In a matter of fact, I've never been rejected because I've never asked anyone. I sit on my butt and think someday the girls will be the ones who make the move. Yet, if that actually did happen, I'd probably say no because I would be startled.

I have never actively searched for a girlfriend so I suppose I am too lazy to find one. However I seem to accidentally get one every few months or so. I'll make a friend or just chat up a girl with random jargon (I really just want to hear myself talk out loud without being weird) and eventually they become enamored (Happened with a gay guy too). I'm not complaining but it's troublesome when they already have boyfriends and this happens.

:thumright:

I'm too lazy to go searching for a bf right now, but that's okay 'cause I don't have a burning desire for one or anything. It isn't my top priority.

The more restrictions you put in place the more difficult it will be for you to find a partner. Is it really all that bad if someone has different religious beliefs to you?

Ya, there will be conflict about what religious beliefs to raise the kids with. There could be other factors as well.


Don't raise your kids with ANY religious beliefs, just teach them right and wrong within the family context then let them find God their own way. Forcing it on kids who don't understand it is kind of like saying it's not worth understanding. Just my opinion, and it gets round the conflict of religion problem.

It's actually better when you don't actively look, but just go about your daily business.

I wouldn't say I was actively looking, but it's a lot of effort ot socialize in general (I have ill health in general). And plus I'm the girl so I expect the guy to make the first move.

I don't ask because I don't accidentally want to ask only to find the guy has a girlfriend. Women around here are crazy and have killed others over boys.
