Approximately never. I'm not a fan of too much boasting from anyone, male or female, but I'm never suspicious of anyone for choosing to be single. There are many benefits to being single, particularly for someone who has the attributes you listed.

I actually prefer women who stay single for awhile instead of women to jump from man to man. A women who can remain single for a long period of time shows the she doesn't NEED a man but instead has her own life going on and would like to have a man added to it. I know too many women who need a have a man in their life or they just don't know what to do with themselves

Like if she is so great, why is she single? Tread carefully, there must be a cancerous skeleton rotting in the closet or a fatal character flaw that will leave your personal, professional, and loving goals unfulfilled and your own life cut short.
I have a lady friend that is single because she is "unlucky"...didn't find the right guy...bad timing etc.. It's not because of anything else. Many men would be ready to not only say yes, but would be relieved and overjoyed to do so.


Then again...others are because of a serious character flaw. If she can't be nice to me and get along as a stranger, I'd hang myself in the oak tree to be her husband or boyfriend.

No thank yas!

Many women choose to spend parts of their lives--sometimes large parts of their lives--single. Men, on the other hand, almost never choose this. Because wanting to be single strikes most men as absurd, they become suspicious of a woman (or man, for that matter) who is single by choice.
That is excellent insight!

Really? I'm a man who has loved the everliving hell out of being single by choice, and I know plenty of others who do and have, also. Is it possible you're confusing being single with being sexually abstinent?

There are very few "single" good-looking women.

Sure they may not be in a relationship but very few good-looking women go longer than 2 weeks without sex of some sort.

You're not looking in the right places.

1) That's not true.
2) If it were true, it would be because they're having sex with guys who aren't judging them for having sex. Feel free to join our ranks. Membership is free.

I don't judge women who give it up easy.

Why would I? It's a free society and less work for me.
