Moderator cut: snip I don't have girlfriends. I don't have relationships. F it.

I don't put any effort into meeting women b/c it's just difficult for me. From approaching them to entertaining them to maintaining the relationship to meeting their friends/family to having to impress them to having to be some macho guy all the time. Having enough money to having the right friends to dressing right to surprising them to...well you get what I m saying. It' soooooo much work.

It's just so much work and most of the time it just doesnt work out.

I'm pushing 30 and I don't think I will ever get married or have a serious relationship. Anybody else like this? Is it wrong to not be interested in pursuing women all the time and looking for a girlfriend or trying to get laid all the time? I just don't really care anymore. I guess I will be solo til the day I die.

I feel this way quite often, but the truth of the matter is that you'll never know if you don't try. Will you be happy with that at the end of the day?

We have to be happy with ourselves before we could be happy with someone else.

If you're happy with it now and think you can be happy with it forever, why change it? Some people truly are fine without another person, and if you're one of those people then more power to you.

What makes me a little hesitant to apply that to you though is that you're saying "it's so much work" and all that... which makes me think that you feel defeated rather than accepting of your 'situation.'

I know I'm defeated, that's for sure. But I'm not quite so willing to give up just yet. A lot of the stories on here give me hope, that's for sure.

I'm looking at you, Gnutella

Yea. I've been that way for long periods and had just been that way for a long period. I've had a little bit of sex in the past few years, but no relationship to go with that.

Eventually, you'll fall for somebody...

I think your misconceptions about what women want is affecting your pursuit of them.
