I wouldn't say I'm sick of it exactly but i do want someone to be with and share a life

I am tired of it. After wasting a ton of time and effort on dating sites, I joined this site with the intention of meeting an attractive lady of an appropriate age range with no kids and similar beliefs. I haven't met any so far, but there are lots of interesting and friendly people nonetheless.

It has it's ups and downs. There are some things that are ok to do by yourself, but other things you just don't want to do alone.

Thats what friends are for.

Not me !! I am 74 years old and been single for almost 35 years. No thank you,nI don't like reporting my movements to anyone, shopping with them ? Aaargh !! Time keeping ? I am a stickler for it. Really, I enjoy my own company too much.

I've hardly ever been "single" during my adult life, so now is my time. I love that all my time is my own to do whatever I want, nobody controlling my actions. Not tired of my freedom yet, but it's only been a month or so. I don't even feel like dating yet. I just want to relish my happy freedom and enjoy being the "me" I couldn't during my long marriage and more recent long relationship. Happy to be out of that!

Well, people want to marry pets and dogs,why do they even come here seeking human connection when in reality they are anti people?

I just became single, so no. I wouldn't mind a friend whose company I enjoyed to run around with,see movies, have an occasional meal. Some physical attraction would be a bonus, too. But I'm not eager to get emotionally immersed again.

I'm sick of it. Yeah, sure, I know how to be alone and independent and bla bla fuckity fuck, but as someone else here already said, there's no rule says I have to like it. Because I don't. But I'm shite at finding a lady willing to date me, so there I am.

Right here!

After going a stretch of years being attached, I'm content for the time being to be single.

It gets old and boring after the initial surge of freedom wears off.

At times you just want a decent conversation, a shared activity, company for dinner and a solid bang after.

I wouldn't use the word "sick" of it really. It just is nice to have someone around once in the while to do things with, share things, etc. I've been single now almost 4 yrs and I sure as hell do not want to go through that crap every again with the last one. I like my freedom but I also like the social connection with someone too.

Me. It sucks

I am single but I am not sick of being single it gives me a chance tostudy and learn about myself.
I am pleased that I have joined this forum here and learn so many new things and make a lot of new friend too.If I was not single I would not have the opportunity to get involve in this forum or make new friends
yes time is a great healer and will eventually find my other half or my soul mate keep being positive here

I am not happy being single at all. I'm not a one-night-stand person, and I miss intimacy. I'm not about to jump into anything without a connection, but I'd like at least the chance to make one. My last LTR put sex off-limits, and I went with it to be with her.

I have only been partnered for about 10 years in my adult life. Being single has become such a part of my identity. I date and have had several meaningful relationships but they don't lead to commitment. I love solitude as I am a true introvert. I miss sharing life with and loving someone. Financially speaking, it's certainly easier with two incomes but.....but.....but....

Mostly single for past 25 years, all but 6 years of it, and totally single for past 14 years. Have a feeling I may be committed to it by now, even subconsciously and unintentionally.

I haven't been single in so long.......What was the question?

1

I am. It's getting old.

I like it. I don't have to put up with anyone else's bullshit.
Being coupled-up is overrated.

Hmmm, interesting question. My feeling about being single are like that of being hungry. Most of the time I am quite content being single, I have always been very independant. But like being hungry, sometimes I just want someone around. I have rarely managed that ballance of having someone who was equally independant, who was great having around because those times you want to spend time together they are there and the rest of the time they are not asking you to spend more time with them.
But it's easier to be single, I have a 10 year old and she fills my need for having someone around to pester inbetween what ever I'm doing. But I wish I could find a grown up who is equally independant and not in constaint need of my attention.
So I am not so much sick of being single, just tired of trying to find someoen who is a good fit, I think a flight attendant would be good, someone who is constaintly going away for days at a time so that by the time I get to missing them, there they are.

I am kind of hating it. It seems really hard to meet someone new once you hit 50, which I just did. I was in a long-term relationship that tanked about two years ago, I've done the work I needed to do, and I'm really ready to be a great partner but I can't find anyone. I miss it.
