I am turning 36 years old come this March. Oh my God I am still single. The problem is I still feel young at heart and have no hurry to get married. I am enjoying my single hood life now to the fullest. What worries me a lot is that I don't even have a steady girlfriend now! In your opinion, it is bad to be single at this kind of age?

Yes enjoy your life first, male and just going 36? It's not that late , maybe your just in a job or a place of work where you do not have much contact with the female specie. come on man , go out and get your self exposed,show them why they should want a guy like you, show them your assets, physical, material or otherwise, go out and enjoy life more before you settle down

Its not bad to be single at almost 36. I am 38 years old and am about to get married for the first time. Its alright to not have a steady girlfriend. It takes time to build a relationship. You don't want to rush in to something and be miserable. Take your time and find the right woman for you. In the mean time have some fun. Enjoy your life.

Well,i can see from your post that you are a positive person and you got a very young heart.I think it is the most important things:to be keep young and active in heart.Personally speaking,i think one should be get married and try to have a kid to enjoy the fun and take the responsibility of being a father. But here in my place,there are more and more people choose to be single in 30s.There are too many reasons. And marriage is a very holy and serious thing,i think we can't be more serious on it.So we should not be in hurry to do this.You know,in my opinion, i would rather keep single than marry a person not suitable to me then get divorced.

As long as you're enjoying your single hood,there's no need to worry. Girls come and go and you'll have all the time to wait for the right girl. My husband married me when he's thirty-five and we have a good marriage life. By the time you get married, hope you've kick off all that single hood ways!

hello Alok, Being single is not that bad at all it is good that you are really enjoying your single status, it is hard to have a serious relationship if you are not ready yet i mean it will be useless if you are going to force yourself to become a mature one. It's surprise me that a man bothered and worried for being single i thought only women are bother about this kind of issues . happy posting

I am bothered/worried not so much about being single hehehe I am worried so much because 'why am I not worried of not getting married :-). A lot of people asking me when will be the time for me to end my bachelor life but they do not know that I have no worries of being single. You are right, I am really not serious in having a relationship for now so better for me to stay away from it then in the end I break some girls' heart. What do you think?

Breaking a girl's heart is not a good thing to do, next time if the people ask you again when you will going to end your bachelor life answer them "it will going to be end so soon but don't know the exact date" if that person is a girl asnwer her are you willing to be my bride?. hey i'm just kidding! i also experience that question everytime i am with my relatives so i get used to it

As long as you are always around people who truly love you and care for you then I think it is alright to be single even all through your life. It is a matter of choice. Some of the people I know, who married early have problems that could have been prevened if they have thought over heir decision to be married first. As you may already know, having a partner in life is only good if both of you supports each other as much as possible.

No steady girlfriend? why, what happens in the relationship and it does not last. Being happy and single is an option or choice. Others cannot just dictate what is best for you. As long as you are financially stable and you know that you can be comfortable in your future, I think nothing is wrong with that. But you also need to ask yourself what is your goal for this new year and what are the things you have to do to attain it. So are you happy to be single forever? if not then I guess you need to have a goal or plan for this year to achieve it.
