I have no problems with a woman who clearly knows what she wants and if being single makes you happy ...more power to you. Much better to keep yourself happy and single, than 'do the kids adventure' to keep your mother happy.So in my opinion NOTHING wrong with you AD..........in fact , you know what you want and are taking responsibilty for your own happiness! I would say there is a LOT 'right' about you. From a mans view, I would like a woman to WANT me , not NEED me.

I don't think there's anything wrong at all. I guess the only problem would be if you started to "miss your blessings" because the desire to stay alone/single turns into a guard to keep out EVERYONE, even the good ones.<br /><br />@FINN yes the list. It must be balanced and realistic, of course. But i can't agree more w/ the happiness w/ ones OWN company. I remember i used to go to the movies by myself all the time in college (i still do), but ppl used to always say, "How do you do that? How do you go out to eat by yourself, sit in a movie theater alone? HOW?" Like i had solved the cure for cancer or something incredibly challenging. It's not that hard. You walk into the theater, sit down and watch the movie. I love it.B.

Now what about the women who embrace what these women are trying so desperately to not have: single, space, alone-time....I mean is it wrong to secretly not date or give excuse to avoid relationship due to just basically not wanting a relationship? So in other words, I'm the opposite of said woman dumped by the neighborhood's dentist. Is there something wrong with that too?<br /><br />ADAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5953151970700211833.post-49338666220352683752010-09-20T07:57:39.707-04:002010-09-20T07:57:39.707-04:00Funny (& insightful) Post Blackie.

How much more powerful would this woman be if she said "No Kids? Thats fine-I'm outta here!" but she did not have that confidence to be on her own.<br />You mentioned the 'list' we have when searching for a mate. I think this is a great idea but after we write out that list we should take a good hard look in the mirror and see how WE measure up to that list. IF I am a 350lb ,unemployed 3 pack a day smoker with drug abuse issues , seriously what are my chances with my list that nominates a 5'10" uber babe , that can run a half marathon in 2'10" and earns $500k per annum. Two essentials in life are BALANCE and REALITY. :-))MD "Dorsal" FINNhttp://www.thevultureperspective.comnoreply@blogger.com
