Seriously... I'm lonely, no doubt. My "last single friend" proposed to his girlfirend on Friday so I feel like I'm the last one. I have lots of random work people I go out with who are single, but my close circle of friends is literally composed of a non-single bunch....Everyone is married or engaged (my two best friends are already married)....I know I have so much to offer to that lucky female, it's just that I'm so damn picky. My friends say it's a bad thing, but you know what? Fuck it! I want what I want and I won't settle for less..... It just sucks when all of your friends get married and start having kids and you feel like you're the last man standing.... I wish them all the best, but I keep hoping for the woman of my dreams....

Don't be sad You'll find your woman

You just have to be patient

Don't ruin my good mood now

Seriously I'm sure you will find an attractive woman you're cute, crazy in the head and you have a good sense of humor so.....


If only I wasn't married

Dook, I'm the opposite of you - I'm 44, been single all my life, and I love every minute of it. For me, marriage is too much work & aggravation. I'm alone, but not lonely. A lot of my married friends envy my position.

You're making yourself miserable thinking about it. Just go out, meet people & enjoy your life. If it happens, it'll happen.

lol, I get that from a lot of folks.It's a decision I made years ago. I know deep down that I'm not the marrying type. I just don't want the responsibility of marriage & fatherhood, and I have a roving eye. You have to be honest with yourself. IMO, the divorce rates are so high because folks aren't honest and marry for the wrong reasons.

I'm picky too Dook! Nothing wrong with that!
I'm alone for almost 4 years now, had a short relationship with a guy who was a sweetheart, but there was not much action, so I ended the relationship! (there was no chance that it was going to be better)
They say a relationship is about giving and taking. Been there, done that! Done with it.

I want it to be good, no fighting for my own space and my personality! Or his! (I don't want to change myself OR him!)
(does this make any sence? It's difficult to explain in English )


Ofcourse I get lonely sometimes and I miss the intimacy!
But if I can't have it the way I like it to be, then I'd rather be alone!

I completely understand what you're saying, it's even worse if you think someone you know might be that special person but isn't interested. BUT that's just the way things go sometimes.

Knowing exactly what it is that you're looking for and being patient will be worth it in the end. At least that's what I keep telling myself.

Have another beer, this one's on me. You'll be alright:

just came back from the wedding of my last single friend...

it was a great time and i bought myself (tongue in cheek) some bling bling since all the girls have rocks on their hands now

i even had my hands on the bouquet for a moment

nah.....I hope you find what you want. Some people are like you and find EXACTLY what they were looking for sooner or later. Don't rush it. You'll drive yourself crazy just thinkin' that you are alone when you have all the opprotunity in the world to go out and get a woman. So babe, be patient. Let live and let love. You'll find it, trust me.

Did U break up with your girlfriend around the same time I did in October?

I'm still looking for the man of my dreams so I know where you're coming from.
