Have you ever gotten a reaction from them that says "I am not sure about this girl"?

Most of the time, they give hints through body language or the phone calls stop. These are things you should look out for and try to remember what you did that caused it.

You need to focus on yourself. Stop letting society brainwash you that you need a man to be happy. Hang out with your friends, take an art class, find a cool hobby, go to the gym, be busy bettering yourself. Work hard and save money. Enjoy being single and having good friends. The healthier, happier, and more confident you become, the less you will care about/need a man.
And ironically enough, that's usually when you end up finding a good man, when you don't need one. You attract losers who prey on people with low self esteem when you are desperate.
You attract healthy, happy, independent people into your life when you are healthy, happy, and independent.
And stop rushing. You're young. You can't get these years back. Enjoy them.

I thought the EXACT same thing when I read the thread title!

Do you like older men? Do you like sports and tv??

That was him who said that right?

cause you'll miss your chance and the next person will be enjoying what you cherish so dearly....
My young student, you have FINALLY come to your senses. Well done.

Forget dating and all that drama, and live the best life! You'll do things and experience things that otherwise wouldn't happen if you had a partner.

Hey, I'm all for singleness when the situation arises. It's best to be secure enough in yourself to know you can enjoy life even without a relationship.

Some seem to think you have to stop living when you're single! I'm going down to the nearest beach in Mexico next week and because it was kind of a last-minute decision I didn't book online and spoke with people. Every single one (American or Mexican) was mighty surprised I need accommodations for one! As if I have to put my life on hold until I can qualify for accommodations for two! They're the same anyway! Am I paying you? Yes. What problem is it of yours then?! Am I supposed to stay home until I'm coupled?! I'm used to that attitude down in Mexico, but it's quite common here, too.
