Singles bar

[Esmeralda]

Still single here. I'd say it's because I'm not looking, have noone in mind, and put my kids first.

Don't wait too long. After a certain age, they stop throwing themselves at you everytime you turn around, and you actually have to make an effort. Truth,

In my case, I'm 45 and have a son that's autistic (he's 25) that I'll always have to take care of. I don't expect any man to want to deal with that. It'd be stupid of me to even think that there's someone out there that would want to be part of my life when I have a child that will always require supervision.

I don't agree with that. There will be someone who wants to be part of your life though you have a child with problems. It would be a very special guy, but there are men out their like that.

I take a short hiatus and the Singles Bar closes??

Did everyone get married or hook up? I'm still single btw, and had a total disaster of an experience with a 20 something year old from Alexandria smgdh

Still single at 42. Just a few moths ago a 2 year relationship ended.

We were shacking up I thought we were doing well. I told her from the very start that I wasn't the marrying kind. Not that I am the type to sleep around or horn dog after women. I was very content to be in an exclusive relationship.

Then she started getting pushy about getting married. I held my ground, she gave me an ultimatum.

I don't like ultimatums so I asked her to move out.

C'est la vie

You would be surprised. I had a cousin who was autistic. She lived until 42, if I recall. If a man really loves you, then he loves the entire family.

That's what I've always believed, which is why I'd rather not hold out hope for someone to come along than to let myself believe in something that might not ever happen.

Good for you. Wisdom takes precedent over wishful thinking. You will be stronger in the long run but ready, in case something sweet does happen.

Thanks for being such a good mom. Your son is blessed and so are you.

I went through the same thing with my ex, we were together 5 years and I told her from the beginning marriage isn't for me, the last year she pestered the hell out of me about getting engaged and than the cheating started, smmfh.

Interesting!! Had she been wise, after you confessed your objections to marriage, she would not have entered into a living arrangement with you. She made a lousy choice.

If I were interested in having a permanent relationship with a man, I wouldn't do it without marrying him, not that that guarantees anything but it does speak to his sincere willingness to a committed love, rather than a convenient one. JMHO. It adds a specialness to a union, however temporary of permanent.

She probably thought she could change your mind lol.

I have been married, not sure I want to do it again. I would be happy in a monogomous commited relationship. But would also be happy getting married again if he wanted.

Getting to a point where I really dont care anymore lol.

 

[Connery]

I've had long-term relationships with women with children and the word love was more a verb than an emotion. In each of those situations I had grown to feel an affection towards those children, however, my actions spoke to a great deal of support financially as well as emotionally, providing shelter, giving direction and advice and cooking some great food.


I would not expect anyone to love or accept my son as I do, that is not a requirement. Respect for my relationship with him and for him as person is definitely required.

Hey!

If I were interested in having a permanent relationship with a man, I wouldn't do it without marrying him, not that that guarantees anything but it does speak to his sincere willingness to a committed love, rather than a convenient one. JMHO. It adds a specialness to a union, however temporary of permanent.

We talked at length about it I was completely honest about not wanting to get married or have kids she never mentioned that she wanted to get married in the future. I quite believed she was OK with a committed but unmarried arrangement. I think she had a change of heart about not having kids. I get it.

The old I love you now change for me thing.

I think she had a change of heart about not having kids so she pressured me to marry.

She knew that would end the relationship.

 

[Mad_Cabbie]

I am only single when viewed as half of a whole; yet, I surmise that very often ... one feels better than two.

Furthermore; it requires less maintenance.

 

[Noomi]

I have been single forever and I like it. Never had the desire to share my life with someone lol.

Sorry to hear that, dude.

My dog is dying, so that doesn't make things too rosy for me.

You must have a very tolerant cat who lets you get away with a lot.

It's alway excruciating to lose a pet. Sorry.
