The grass is always greener my friend. There are tons of single people who feel lonely that long for relationships while others wish they weren't in one. I'm getting older, **most** single women around my age are probably the ones who made bad decisions in life and/or crazy + other baggage. I refuse to get into a LTR with someone who is merely settling with me because she cannot find someone else. I'm fit, above average looking (imo), but I cannot socialize worth a shit unless it's about networks, phones, video games, and sports. None of those things are of any interest to women. I have concluded that I'll never make an effort. Too many hurdles to jump and not enough time. At least being single, you're safe, and there will be a lot more money in your bank account.
