unlucky in love? Why I say that is that I went on a date yes a date I don't go on them often as they freak me out.. Usually end up beind a thearpist and they are talking labout how much their ex messed them up. They say that there is someone for everyone out there however I am starting to believe that my one has died or gone aboard. |

I live in hope that one day, someone who ticks nearly all the boxes will cross my path and sweep me off my feet.
In the meantime, I shall play with Mr. Wrong's until Mr. Right turns up! |

The one who provided me with the much needed fireworks was taken away from me unexpectedly just over 3 years ago.
I miss him dearly, however, life must go on, and I cannot live the life of a nun. |

In a quite frank post I am about to write I am disatrous with relationships being in a few really abusive relationships where I have been battered and used it made me think that every man is the same... I think the good guys get pissed off with me because I treat them so badly and the ones that treat me like crap I usually fall for. I do wonder about myself at times.. |

Neither of us were looking for love and a chance meet arranged by a friend has meant that Meg is moving in with me as soon as she finds a job here as the 175 mile commute is proving arduous. This is our first Christmas together and we are looking forward to it very much. Sometimes love is just around the corner (Sometimes at the end of the M62!)Never give up but if you stop looking, you never know. Merry Christmas everybody Jim and Meg xxx |

I do not believe I have the time and energy to invest in a traditional relationship.
For a start, I do not believe I could live with another person full time under the same roof again.
I do not wish to talk to another person when I come home after a hard day's work, to hear about how his day has gone blah blah blah, when what I need is just peace and quiet.
I do not wish to have to rush home to cook dinner every day, as it is seldom for me to leave work on time.
What I would like to have, is a part time soul mate, who also values his independence etc...
As I have said before, there are many boxes to tick. |

This may sound daft and silly, however, I shall use what I would call "would my mother object" test when choosing a life partner in the future.
If I feel/think my mother would be shocked by the person in question, be it physical appearance, intellect, financial security etc., then the person is unlikely to be right for me.
OK, I know at my age I should not need parental approval on any aspect of my life.
However, I have come to respect her opinions over the years.
A couple of gents that had made an impact on my life in the past would not pass this test.
One was completely against type in more ways than one, and I went against my gut instinct to give him a chance, and it ended up a total disaster.
I shall trust my instincts, as they are nearly always right. |

Indeed!
The onward and upward mentality applies to all aspects of life, and not just in relationships, IMHO. |

I don't think I am, no.
I was married for 24 years to the only man I've ever loved. He never bored me either.
Although I see someone regularly, if I don't see him I don't care or think about him. That may seem cold, but I don't want the complexity of a relationship.
I've become selfish and I like the variety of having several playmates to amuse me. Sadly, just as some women have the nack of attracting men that cheat, knock them about etc, I seem to attract clingy men. |

Ive met some right twats in my time who have treated me like shit. Ive met some lovely guys and for what ever reason it didnt work out. Then i met Jay. People can only do to you what you let them. Ive never been a baggage carrier. Also i have never gone looking for a relationship, ive always just stumbled into them. Ive never been needy enough to need a man in my life |

I don't think I am needy... or full on I think the times I have looked for a relationship I have met the dicks!! I guess that I would just like to meet someone to settle down with and have kids at least then I can say that I have done it.... |

I was in a 15 year relationship that just kinda fizzled out. I would like to think I'm not too ugly / grumpy / short-arsed to find someone else at some stage but I wouldn't say I'm really looking for one at the moment... but I am 36 so I guess I shouldn't leave it too long.
Whoever it would be with, however, would have to be a Villa fan |

My ex husband is the only man I have ever loved. We split 9 years ago and I have never met any one else I would want to spend the rest of my life with. I have dated twice since, but they only lasted a few months and that was over 5 years ago. I have had casual relationships since, but love was not involved. Not sure I will ever meet the one, but I intend to have lots of fun in the mean time lol x |

"I'd rather be happy alone than miserable with the wrong lass. "
totally agree with this sentiment. in the past 6 months I have been far happier being single than being in a bad relationship. besides there is too many cocks about just waiting to be sat on |

Definitely better and happier alone than with the wrong person, IMHO.
I have never wanted kids, been like that ever since I baby-sat a family friend's baby when he was 2 weeks old. He is now 28, and one day, I hope to remind him about cleaning him up and changing his nappy at his wedding!
Perhaps that is one of the reasons why I can just get up and go if a relationship does not work out, as there is no need to stay for the sake of the children etc...
I have never regretted not having children. It is not for everyone, and certainly not for me.
I would rather have a cat and a dog than a child. |

I agree - but being happy and being in a relationship don't have to be mutually exclusive.
I'd rather be happy in a relationship than happy alone. |
