After breaking up with your partner, what is the reason why you are still single?
It have been 7 months when we broke up. and still i haven't found my new one. It is because that i still love him? i don't think so maybe it is because i'm too busy with my studies and i haven't go out to date as well. I'm so focus in my studies. I think that is the reason and not that i still love him :)

i'm single for like 5 or 6 years now. hahaha.. my last relationship was a long distance and i kind of used to being alone most of the time since then. during my last relationship, i thought that it's not that bad when you're alone but having someone who cares. when we broke up, getting into a new one is not really something i should give too much of a thought. i'm still single but a lot of people cares, no need to be attached or commit to some intimate relationship.

I am single, but in a relationship. I stay unmarried and it is my choice. I am not prepared to have a family of my own because I know that stage is quite a serious thing. I still want to accomplish something.
Well, on your situation, when you are single, it does not necessarily imply that you have not moved on. As you mentioned, you are busy and focused on your studies. That is your choice. Never rush to be into a relationship. Love will find you and do not chase it.

Well, I've been single since the day I was born.. hmmm. I think the reason is that I still haven't found the right girl for me.. I'm not easily impressed with a woman you know.. I guess I'm picky.. And another thing is that (though this sounds funny), I'm an old school, I choose to be the first and I choose to be the last... hehe

The reason behind this is that when a person is bitten by a snake he would definitely be afraid of rope also. So same is the case of relation ship, after broke up, no one want to be hurt or disguised again, thats why s/he want to remain signal and the other reason you already mentioned it may be due to love for your partner that you dont want to accept any one else in your life....

I've liked this guy I'm been seeing for quite awhile. Hes perfect for me but aparently I am not perfect for him. I am not really attracted to anyone else. I've met 8 guys since he and I started hooking up but hes the only one that kept my interest. If I date anyone else then I cant hook up with him anymore and since I like him I dont want to end that.

Ok your right I should have phrased that different. He is about as perfect for me as I have ever come with any man to this date. He is just an amazing person but he doesnt see himself like that. I'd give up the other guys to be with him but he doesnt want it that way so the other guys keep me entertained when hes not around.

I have been married and i have been single. I didn't choose to be single. it is just a fact of this life. i will remain single until that someone special comes into my life. it happened for me once. i can only hope that it can happen again.

I'm not interested in finding a partner at the moment. I think there's things in my life I need to clear up first and things that I need to do before I find a partner. When I find him, I want it to be for real. Like forever type deal. I don't want to just casually date and such. I want someone that will stand by me. But I need to accomplish things as a single first before I start looking.
But if God happens to throw him in my life tomorrow, then I will start dating. I gotta do what God says.

you could be right. it's not because you have broken up with your partner you would have to look for somebody who would replace him/her. it's also important to give time to yourself, and to the other people around you. the right time will come to meet another person..so we dont have to worry...

Uhm.. sometimes... I ask that question to myself too.. maybe i was not into rush because.. none of my friends have love relation.. though some are have.. it really not affected me too much...
but sometimes.. i ask what's the reason why i don't have one? i found myself answering that
1. because you're childish
2. you're not impressive.. or you doesn't look nice..
3. have moods wing that why people thought that i'm hard to please
4. when someone giving motives and i don't like him, i avoided him..
i guess.. those are the FEW reasons why i'm still single... :)
anyhow.. it's okay.. as long as I knew that the God will be preparing the one for me.. I can wait..

everyone may have the following reasons as to why they are single:
1. "I am single because love sucks" --- that is from someone who gets rejected everytime.
2. "I am single because I still love him/her"--- that is from someone who just broke up.
3. "I am single because my parents are strict"--- that is from someone who is a very obedient child.
4. "I am single because I haven't found someone who can measure up my expectation" ---that is from someone who is a success-oriented person.
5. "I am single because nobody likes me --- that is from someone who has a very low self esteem.
6. "I am single because I am too hot to handle --- that is from someone who is very confident to the point of being conceited.
7. "I am single because I am waiting for my prince charming/princess --- that is from someone who believes in serendipity/destiny.
8. "I am single because no one can compare to him/her --- from someone who just broke up and still looks up to the person he/she broke up with.
There are many other reasons for being single...and I may say that in my case, it is more of "It is not the right time for me yet"...yeah, I guess I believe in destiny..=)

I think your studies are not the only reason why you are still single. May be you have not come out of the pains yet.
