The reasons behind remaining single are as diverse as humanity itself. For many, it's a deliberate choice. Concentrating on career aspirations, pursuing passions, or even traversing personal milestones, singleness offers undistracted opportunities. Some cherish the freedom, the silence, or simply the space to be unabashedly themselves.

Past Heartbreaks:

Every heartbreak etches a mark on the soul. Some emerge resilient, while others tread with caution, shielding their hearts from potential pain. The shadows of past relationships can often act as barriers, making one hesitant to leap into new romantic ventures.

High Standards:

Seeking a partner who aligns with one's values and desires is natural. However, if the checklist becomes too exhaustive, it might hinder the possibility of finding someone who, while not ticking every box, brings unforeseen joy and companionship.

Social Circles & Interactions:

Often, our social circles dictate our interactions. Remaining within a familiar zone might offer comfort, but it can also restrict exposure to potential partners. Exploring new hobbies, attending diverse events, or simply expanding one's social circle can pave the way for fresh encounters.

Personal Growth & Self-awareness:

There's a beauty in embracing solitude for self-growth. This period can be a sacred space for introspection, understanding oneself better, and fostering personal evolution. Some choose to be single as they craft a better version of themselves.

Fear of Commitment:

The intricacies of human emotions mean that fears, often deeply rooted in past experiences or inherent insecurities, can hold one back. The commitment that relationships demand might seem overwhelming for some, leading to a preference for the safety of singleness.

The tapestry of singleness is woven with myriad threads – choices, experiences, fears, and aspirations. In the grand scheme of life, it's vital to remember that individual timelines vary. Whether you're cherishing the joys of being single or yearning for a partner's companionship, the key is to find contentment and happiness in your present. After all, it's not just about the relationship status, but the richness of experiences and emotions that fill the pages of your story.

    My problem is very simple. No one that's reasonably attractive replies to my messages. Except for a few exceptions where the woman is accusing me of being a catfish, or is going way too far. Trying to come off as if they are flawless, is just a half and have not type of situation here I cannot imagine that I'm the only guy having this trouble. But I am really tired of looking at attractive profiles and putting effort into communicating and getting nothing but the once in a while. Nice guy response. And I do feel empathy for women who are struggling with the same scenario. It's the law of unfortunate averages.

    I'm still asking myself as to why I'm still single and not married by now ...yet. I still can't seem to wrap my head around it. Maybe ...maybe I'm yet to settle some scores with the universe. LOL!

    Meeting wrong men, and currently one who lied he's single with just a kids, while I found out he's married with 3kids. It's so painful. But that won't make me quit looking for the bone of my bones.

My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.

She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.

My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.

I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.
