I have contemplated that maybe there just isn't any girl there for me so is it actually possible to be single forever? What do you think?

I agreed on one of the answered here that you need to find someone to love and be love, you gonna regret what you said that you want to be alone in your life. You will miss the family life which is very nice and fruitful to see kids to grow and love by them and with your future wife to be. so search now even here in internet you can join any social network or friends site that offer for friendship maybe your future wife is just waiting for you, Good luck.

It is possible but it's up to you if you want to be single forever or not. It might take you a long time to find the right one, or maybe you're too picky! The downside is that you might get to 40 or 50 years old and realise that you're lonely and that you wish you had gotten married and had children. It would be horrible to regret that. My advice is not to think about it too much, don't stress about it and if you put yourself out there the right person will come along one day.

Thank you for your advice. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places. Hopefully she does come. :)

All my aunts in my father's side are all old maids, I don't like their attitude they are very irritable and meticulous on any thing. I also hate the fact that when they get old, we their nieces and nephews will take care of them, sorry to say this but they didn't even care about us and why should we take care of them?. For me it is not okay to be single forever, anyways I don't have any experiences with old single male.

Well I don't want to be an irritable old man...that would be just sad...I think I might reconsider being single forever. Thanks

I am still single. And I guess I would stay one unless I get to meet a guy who's not a user and treats me with respect and honesty. Yes its lonely but I can't be the first to ask for marriage when I know he is still enjoying his career.

I think it is all personal preference and will vary per person. If you find that you are happier being single forever, then it should be okay. As long as you are happy.

hello gothblade,
sometimes it is possible to be single forever until you die. if that happens or is happening to you, just remember there are millions of people on earth who are trapped in miserable marriages, weighed down with mortgages, car payments, college tuition for their children, debt up the ears, dealing with annoying in-laws. the grass isn't always greener on the other side.

I've said many times that I'm going to be single forever, but all that means is that I haven't found someone who can change my mind yet. At the moment I feel that there isn't a guy out there in the world for me, but I think things like that take time. You can't really rush it. I think it's something that just happens in its own time.
However, there are some people who stay single their entire lives because they enjoy being single. I think it all depends on the person. I'm just going to remain open to the possibilities out there and if I meet someone then that's great. If not...oh well :)
