Might be, I made alot of mistakes earlier and I'm behind the curve, don't make much money and I'm closing in on 40 and I'm a black male.

Could just be thstbim toast, I have no kids either. I get no responses on dating sites at all.

I knew from a young age that I probably didn't want kids (I'm male). But this knowledge has hurt my relationship options progressively over the years. You either have to adopt another woman's kids or have them with her, which cuts your dating pool down 90% or more.

And even when I was thinking I might come around and go for the single moms, their seriousness, money-seeking behavior, and narrow-mindedness (mostly just concerned with their kids), was the ultimate turn-off, the anti-romance.

So if you don't want to be single guys, you're best off wanting kids.

I love my life, not looking for a ltr.
I travel all over Europe and the world as I choose.
Would you prefer a relationship down the road? So you are into STR?

And I guess gay people are always single? Since they can't get married in most states...
If you are NOT married then you are Single. Cheating is a different topic.

I am heading toward that fast at age 36 i think. I do miss aspects of having a close, committed relationship. I have frequently posted about this.

I do want a LTR with someone I can grow old with. Just don't want the ceremony, title, name change, division of assets etc.
Same thinking as me.

What does you being Black have to do with this?

I know. I am very happy. This is exactly what I wanted. I do want a relationship though.
