Up here

Here in Alaska a man if he has tools and is good with his hands is in demand to build women assets for them. If he gets married and then divorced she gets his pension plan if he has one. So a man is a pension plan or sometimes it is only half so she has to get another guy with a pension plan- then she has a whole pension. This is of course in addition to her own assets. I have seen this happen so many times it is not funny. So I am cautious and have learned to live without sex. I like women for friends like on here because I live in a mans
world of construction and activities with old friends. I miss having a woman but I don't miss being a trained seal for one. So yeah single and loving it.. long term.

I would have to agreed to that because I kinda learned in a hard way.

True, people often felt they need to get married before 31 yr old, because they think 30 yr old is too old.

I know a friend who highly preferred to be an 'Old Maid' than being married.
She simply LOVES being single. She have her reasons to be an old maid.

I've been single so looooooong. Do get a little lonesome sometimes, but not very often. I've learned how to fix things when they are broken (or at least try)! The ol' saying...."once bitten, twice as shy" applies to me. Divorsed, and scared to try again....lots of relationships, long term (2-5 years or more)...but marriage? No way....Not to mean I have anything against marriage, it's great if a couple can get along and compromise.

My adopted boys, my pets ,my family, friends & neighbors keep me super busy, along with all their "drama". I like things nice and peaceful at home. Leave the drama to others.

um I've been single for exactly 2 weeks. When I revisit the good memories, my heart sinks and I miss her very much. The memories we made are very special to me. When I don't think about it all, I feel good to be single again. It's quite tough to manage both sides of the fence. Despite my hardest efforts at moving on, I still think of her often. Sometimes I wish that time could be turned back so that things could go back to normal (like when we chatted regularly), before everything fell apart. (Now there's ignorance or lack of communication) It sucks feeling helpless when I think that I could have done something different to change the outcome or make it work.

The biggest lesson I've learned is that there are things in life that one cannot predict nor control, and when it happens, it is best to accept the inevitable and move on.

That's hard to do cause there's that little part of me that doesn't want to move on.

No matter what, I'm still gonna keep trying and do what's best for me at the moment, which is 3D animation.

Honestly... I wouldn't mind being single for the rest of my life.

I came across this quote recently and it struck a chord with me:

"If you want to sacrifice the admiration of many men for the criticism of one, go ahead, get married." - K. Hepburn

I do not seek the admiration of men but I also do not yearn the criticism of one

I don't think there is a time limit on how long is too long to be single. With life, its so unpredictable, and each day is new beginning of something. I suppose, my out look on life is a bit different. I live each day rather than planning or having a blueprint. So, far my life has been good

I don't mind being single for, what, 5 years? Single life is fun and full of freedom, right?

for me how long for a person to be able to stay single is up to the individual themselves. I know of few that has been single all of their lives and just loving every minute of not being attached however I do know of people that have been married then divorced and their reaction to being single is really unique. So I would say how long is too long really there is not an universal answer for everybody.

Cool

I reluctantly trust with new guy since I become widow in Nov 2, 2006. It took me three years to anti-socialize into the Deaf Community. I need to stop feel sorry for myself to move on with my life. I realize, I could not replace from someone else with Andrew. Sometime, I am afraid to burden with their debts or involve with other their ex wives or children other side. I did not want to part his side of ex family. Some of guy didn’t want to involve with me to deal with my depression. I assume, I am too picky on the guy since I become widow.

Nowadays, I hardly become to trust with new guy. Will he be good for me and my life? Will we be last long relationship? My guts tells me that I will never marry again, may live together forever until we die.

Lick my finger up in the air, where I will be going to next the step.
