How come I pick the wrong guy again? So then it becomes a case of "Every guy I pick is wrong" so why bother? You want someone your physically attracted to in some way but I don't know, we have to "settle" to some extent because we all are not perfect. It's such a fine line; what types of things are we settling for? I want certain qualities in a male but am I willing to settle for a liar vs someone who isn't an drug addict or alcoholic? Am I willing to settle for someone who is controlling but doesn't cheat? Those types of things and quite honestly, I'd rather not. The truth is I may spend the rest of my alone, but it beats being in an unhappy relationship just to say I have someone. I'm seriously trying to come to terms with it. I've been in many unhappy relationships and it's miserable!!

Totally agree... You got one life... Why settle??? Its just leads to affairs and hurting others... I'm completely happy being single, and when someone comes along worth "settling" for, I will...

I wouldn't say "I'm Happy" being single, but I will say that my life is less complicated. I don't have the relationship concerns and worries that a lot of people typically have and your right, "when someone comes along worth settling for", I will too. Hopefully if and when that time comes, it won't come with any of the burdens that my previous relationships did. Best wishes to the both of us!!!

I have to agree. All my friends ##### and moan about "my girlfriend did this" and "my girlfriend did that" and .



I guess it's better being single than having someone biatch at you all the time.

I hate the word "settle"...

I see a vision in its light

But now it's gone and left me so alone
But I let the dream go
I know I have to find you now
And the promises broke
Can hear your name, I don't know how
And the make-believe ran out...
Why can't we make this darkness feel like home?
