No comment on the merits of Star Wars. Different topic for a different time.

Other reasons I am single:

1. I take horrible care of myself and I dress like a slob. On purpose. I don't care. My hygiene and fashion sense would need drastic improvement to date. Too much of a bother.

2. The type of women who would enjoy running iterations of algorithms or discussing the lyrical genius of Maynard are not the type of women I'd want anything to do with if I had an inkling for attraction.

3. I wanted unconditional love and loyalty, so I got a dog.

4. The world in general tells people they need to be coupled up in order to be happy, so I do the exact opposite. I think most of the world is wrong about most things most of the time.

5. I've been in an awesome relationship for quite a few years now, and it's been going really well. I'm pretty certain that I am the one for me.

I am still single because I had to realize that the Lord should be my first Love and I believe that the Lord will make things wonderful in his time. Glory to God.

I think as the years pass we gathered adjectives and arguments to describe and explain the why of our unmarried status.
"I've got the personality of a brick and I am as warm and inviting as a thorn Bush" "My issues have issues" "
I love life, but life only likes me as a friend.":D Like to others its funny for me but we can not deny that void at the end of the day. It will be necessary to be married to not feel that void?

Thank you Shekina for your post. I agree that we do have that void, but how do we deal with that void?
We can deal with that void by turning to the Lord, but then each person has his own gift either in singleness or in marriage as said by Paul.
I think it important to deal with that Void and anxiety and try to be self controlled by seeking the Lord even if you want to get married. The Lord will strength us and he will provide a spouse for his Children in time.
God bless you Shekina.
[h=1] 1 Corinthians 7:6-9[/h] [SUP]6 [/SUP]Now as a concession, not a command, I say this.[SUP]7 [/SUP]I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another.

[SUP]8 [/SUP]To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single as I am. [SUP]9 [/SUP]But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

I was married twice. I felt more lonely when I had someone in my life than I do now that I am contentedly single. I made poor choices in the women I got involved with, and I admit that, but I just can't see me in a relationship. I tried it in order to feel "normal", and it took me two very long and expensive divorces to realize that what is "normal" isn't the same for everyone.

Single white male with PTSD and a dump truck full of emotional and personal issues seeks single white female, preferably not ugly and hopefully not deep into "crazy cat lady" territory for mutual psychological torture. Infertile, celibate, Christian women only. No vegans, Star Wars fans, or readers of romance pulp novels.

and examine the mind,
to reward each person according to their conduct,
according to what their deeds deserve.”
God knows my heart but the society imposes age to marry or have children,this bothers me:mad:because only Good knows when , where and with who:confused:
