Married since 1980 to the same women, funny we still joke around like when we first met. My family tree has no divorces dating back to around 1840.

I'm single, never been married. I would like to be one day, but in the mean time will travel as much as I can and enjoy my stress free life(well not completely stress free). I've been told too many times that once your married, life is over. Now that I think about it, it makes marriage seem a little scary.

I wonder why
That sounds like fun if one can find such a spouse!

You're smart to do that. I fully intended to remain single my entire life - and didn't even date for about seven years. I traveled and enjoyed my life tremendously. I felt really lucky that I didn't have the "sress" of being married. I certainly thought I could never stand to be around the same person every single day.

Then I met my husband. He completely turned my world upside down - in a good way. I never get tired of him. He the best man I've ever known, next to my father - and unsurprisingly, he's a lot like my father. I knew pretty quickly that I'd marry him, and we've been married for almost six years now.

Don't be afraid of marriage. With the right person, it's a beautiful thing. I think a big key, for me anyway, is the fact that I was so happy being single. I know it sounds odd, but it really isn't. I married my husband because I love him, and I wanted to share my happy life with him. I didn't marry him to "save" myself from being single.

So, go on being happy as a single woman. Enjoy your life. It's wonderful to be able to be happy on your own. But don't be afraid to get married if you meet someone pretty wonderful.

Default Hoping to meet lots of people

I have been living in Sosua, Dominican Republic for over 5 years. Its not easy to meet a guy here as this is a tourist town and generally men come here to meet the 'Chicas' !

I love meeting people and hope that when we make our move to Tampa there will be lots of things to do and lots of people to meet.

Look forward to meeting some of the people from this site too.
