No... apparently. "You're a great guy and I KNOW YOU'LL FIND SOMEONE".
Can't tell you how many women have said that to me.
Between that quote and the 'I can't understand how you're still single' line, if I had a dollar for every time they were uttered, I could buy myself a relationship.
I always wondered how I would fare as a single person. I'm geo-seperated for the next 8 months. I guess I could lose the ring and find out.
Im in week 3 of something similar. Its pretty fantastic having none of the advantages of being in a relationship and all of the disadvantages of being single at the same time.

Usually when we're apart I'm in the Middle East or on a military base in the middle of the desert (Yuma/29Palms), this is the first time I've been apart and in a place where the male/female ratio likely near the national standard.
But yeah, it's been a weird evening. There are three concurrent conversations going about the military right now on the board, it's just a coincidence. Wish there was a Pens game on to distract everyone from it.
Like in 2009 and I was in Iraq, and I watched the Pens win the Cup when I was on R&R...

I can't stand people in their 30's now that are still in on again off again relationships AND put up super passive-aggressive stuff on the web to let everyone know just how dissatisfied they are with their significant other. If you're in your 30's and you haven't figured out that you've been in a toxic relationship for years there is no hope for you. Close up shop and quit crying to the world about it.
It doesn't even need to be people into their 30's. My sister-in-law is terrible. New guy on the regs and every single one of them leaves her, and she posts non-stop on facebook about how hard it is to find a good guy, and how miserable she is. At what point do you take a step back and say, "hmmmm... maybe it's me."

I've seen this as well. At some point you have to realize it might be you. Know someone who just can't understand why the person they're pursuing isn't responding to them.
As for myself, I'm gonna take this time to reflect. Maybe it is my fault. Who knows. All i know for sure is that i have no barometer anymore for how my relationships are going. 3 hours of enjoyment, shows overwhelming interest, makes sure i kiss her on the lips, then BAM! Next day she says we aren't seeing each other again. Just beyond confused.

I married the first serious girlfriend I ever had. I would have no idea what to do if I were single.
I've been in a series of steady relationships without a break since I was 14. But I met all of them in high school. Without that forced socialization I don't think I'd fare well. It's not like it's good practice to date at work, unless it works out, and even then it has to be a pain.
I was going to ask what people do to meet women, as a curiousity. It can't just be go down to the bar and wait, right? That only exposes you to a certain profile of woman. If my wife were to die I'd probably be alone for a long time as I'd basically have to find someone without looking since I'm no social butterfly. I'm not the kind of person to make small talk while picking out produce.
if you have a good date with someone, but they don't follow up, there are a number of things that went wrong.
-bad kisser (this alone is a deal breaker for some girls)
-she was faking her enjoyment
-she's crazy
-in the moment, she thought you were what she wanted. but she slept on it, and it turns out you're not
-she cyber stalked you and didn't like your whole deal
-the kiss was a charity or a "good bye" from her
dating is weird. you want to find someone who you can read. the people you go out with who have a totally different impression of the experience than you do...those ones usually aren't worth it
