I've been single for quite a while now shouldn't something give. Ask for numbers and get blown off or go on dates that I have to end earler cause I don't want to waste they're time(or mine). I think they all moved to the east coast. If god has a porpuse for keeping me single I sure would like to know what it is. I own my own business and work for a construction company. I make my own way and take care of myself quite well. Isn't that supposed to be appealing. I don't care for fancy things tho I do have soon nice things. The is more to life than what you have or what you can bring to the table. The only then you should have to bring to the table is yourself and who you are. Anyway I guess I'm just ranting. Hoping others are out there feeling like I do.

I think we all feel that way at times but what is to be will. I guess you just have to wait it out hun and when the time is right it will happen. Hang in there and good luck to all of us

Wow 3 years... Well, I don't know you personally but could be one or a combination of the following. I'm not saying you fall into these categories but just a guess because I know a lot of men and women who are single with some good tangibles but don't get a lot of dates. Intangibles are just as important of tangibles.

1. No one wants to blame themselves, but it could be you. It's hard for someone to look at themselves but it's easy for someone else to see you how you really are.

2. It could be your demeanor your conversation etc...

3. Maybe you are too picky with the small stuff

Remember, money, and tangible assets are good, but the bottom line, a person's character will outweigh those things and how they communicate with the other person.

I know a lot of people who make 100,000 and can't even get a date It's not all about money as it is in personality.

Again, not saying this is you, but you have to start looking from within.

I think we all feel like that some time. People keep saying good things come to those who wait........well a lot of us are still waiting. I've been around so many blocks at this point, even I don't know how I haven't given up yet. Determination, I suppose.

Have lots of patience - LOTS

God i just sent you a wink, and you are almost 2000 miles away from me LOL...and yes i am on the east coast. Don't sweat it, i have been almost single for nine or ten years. I am very very picky....I cant fall short this time. This guy has to be it as i am not getting any younger. My god i am going to be 38 in June. How am i supposed to enjoy my life, when i could have gotten married in my 20's like 23 yeas old? I could have been happy and had like two or three more children by now....sigh....well i still have time.....if i find a man now i could be mating and live happily ever after and get three more kids in and i would be what 58? for a good 20 years before i croak? Life definitely does suck kids.

Hi, Maybe you might be thinking they are the one and you might be trying to hard to find love. we as woman want love to but we want it slow ,so that we can know that he is the one. If you are pushy or to clingy that is a push off. Take your time . know what you want and let it flow.And learn from why all the others as to why it didn't work. good luck you are handsome.

You are kidding me right? Worried because you've been single for "3" whole years? Well there could be reasons for this...are you picking the right type of girl for yourself? Are you "hurrying" relationships and running the girls off? Sounds like you are basing "attracting a woman" by what you "HAVE" and not by who you "ARE"...yes, we like to see that a man has some things he's acquired on his own...but the bottom line is a woman is making her decision on whether she "likes and enjoys the company of the guy" not "what he has". Did you stop to think that if you sit back, quit looking, and enjoy life you might run smack dab into the girl of your dreams? You might try it...I heard it sometimes works! lol

As for being single for 3 years...darlin, I've been divorced for 22 years, and it's been by my choice. I am looking for the man that I can spend the rest of my life with, and I'm in no hurry to settle with someone just to have a man in my life or be married. Settling will get you right back in divorce court since eventually you'll find that you really aren't as happy as you thought you could be.

Take your time...you are still so young and have your whole life ahead of you!

P.S. Take a class, find a hobby, volunteer for Community Service...there are places to meet people everywhere! Find what's available in your community/city.

What would you rather have:
1. What you have 30 years of age and potential
or
2. 55 years of age, good relationship & good earnings

Remember this happens over night.
You go from 30 to 55.

Choose wisely.
Remember #2 is still #2.

I have been single 4 years. If I find someone great, if not, I ain't gonna cry over it. And I am picky, why settle for Mr. wrong, again, cause Mr. Right is out there some where.

Thank you for the advice. I find that I'm not rushing them or clinging to them. It's just that the chemistry is wrong or we have nothing in common. Then there is the morallity thing. To give you an idea I ended a date a cpl of weeks ago because she had been with a child molester the night before. (My sister informed me) When I asked about she went into something about how he had gotten two 14yr girls pregnant and it was no big deal. Well sorry folks this does not cut it at all. the guy deserves to be shot and publicly hung by his testicals not out and about. The fact she was ok with it blew my mind. So in the middle of the meal I got up paid for my meal and left her there. Too bad cause she was cute too. That is just one of the many times I have ended a date do to my values or morals.

3 years is nothing. I went for 15 years at one point in time in my life. It is a good time to really learn about yourself anyway. Then just be yourself. Eventually someone will come along that will fit right in with who you are and things will work out. Cupid will hit you with his best shot when you least expect it. Just don't try and rush into something is all.
