Ive been single for such a long time now. And now that valentines day is coming it seems im going to have to do some reflection about my love life. Lol! Sometimes i feel tired of being single but there are somethings i need to prioritize and getting in a relationship is not my priority. . So are you tired of being a single?

this just hits me. i can relate to this topic since i have been single for a LONG time. i mean, really long. i don't know what is it that makes me soooooo serious about school and made me stop thinking and worrying about love life. ahem! but now, since valentines is coming, it's all coming back to me again. (song, eh?) i get jealous of lovers around me, especially in school. i get tired when people ask me whether or not i have a date on the 14th. geeez, its just so annoying. i guess i really am tired. i am. at this point. well, not really but yeah.

i think it is the nature of hard working student like us... we give all our time to our studies and other activities than we forget to have or pay attention to our lovelife.. because lovelife isn't our priority at all.

Yup, i am tired of being because i am single. But when i am in a relationship, i miss the lifestyle of being single. I am single now for almost a year now and i can say that i'm beginning to get sick of it. I miss the time when i have other responsibilities to a specific someone other than myself. I miss the time when i need to make a call just to make sure if she's already home or not. I miss the time checking out on someone's whereabouts. I miss telling stories that one person would listen willingly.

Wait 'til you see me. People treat me like a kid so getting matured is a lot more difficult for me. I've got a pretty colorful lovelife. I fell for a super possessive mormon, singlemom, half muslim, underage (...now you see why i settle for a girlfriend, because i can), boyish, etc.. Seriously, i'm looking for a wife-potential girlfriend. I just fall for the wrong person all the time. I wish i was 21 and residing in Cavite. Lol!

Well I guess at a certain point in time in our singles lives we do come to that point where we question our being single. That is a natural feeling I guess and I think its high time that you give that thought a time to reassess where you are happy in your life right now. If you are in a relationship but is not serious about it, it is high time to question yourself if it is time to get serious about it. I guess in achieving something we want in life we should balance things out, meaning you should have something meaningful for your life.

Well then I guess you should find time looking for one to make you happy. Actually it could help you even achieve what you want when you're inspired by it.

oh, you are so young and pretty to be worrying about this sort of stuff. I guess it goes with the age. When I was your age, I didn't want to be single either. I hooked up with all the wrong guys...got married twice...had children. Now I am much older, I love being single. I do have a man that I see on occassion but our lives aren't all tangled up together and I love that. Don't worry....you still have your whole life ahead of you. I'm glad a relationship is not your priority....you will probably make wiser choices when your own life is in order. Valentines day is just another day anyway....it is a day to give a boost to the card and flower people. One of my girls who is 22 was just saying how she seems to always be single on Valentines Day. She's ok with it....I think. She, too, has a lot in her life that she needs to work on and says that now she is focusing on that. I hope so. I think she'll have more confidence and make better choices once she has her own life in order somewhat. Now if she sticks to this plan...remains to be seen. Last time she had the plan to take time off from dating....she took 2 weeks!

hi, thanks for your response.. maybe in time, if i already got a partner in life, i will be tired of being in a relationship.. it seems that for us, valentines day is just a normal day.. applied to all singles out there...

I think it sometimes tends to make those that are single and wishing that they had someone special more aware of what they don't have. For those people , I do feel bad.

Hi lockheart, I have forgotten how it feels to be totally single. I mean i am single per civil status but not alone. I have a boyfriend now and it too has its ups and downs. I don't wanna rush things by marrying so soon. I wanna enjoy more this freedom that I have before settling.

work and activities help us to forget those kind of things.. but you know, we can avoid times like we were alone and we are thinking iur own sentiments.. and then everything just pop up in your mind.

i already have a hubby now... so i don't feel tired of being single anymore... but in the past, there are times when i was single and i used to feel lonely and envy my friends who already have partners... but i think being single also has its own advantages... good luck with your love life... hopefully you will be able to find your prince charming soon... take care and have a nice day...

There are times when I am tired of being single. SUre I am seeing a guy, but it's not official. But when I am single i take that time to focus on myself and work on getting my life in order before concerning myself with a man. I think at a young age thats what we should do.

maybe you are right, but life is too short and time is too fast.. sometimes we evn dont notice anymore how much time already pass and loneliness he regret that we think we should have already someone who will fill up those empty spaces within ourselves. lol. and that's too deep.

Well when I was single it didn't really matter that much to me since I was still young and really didn't think about that. For me having a relationship is a big responsibility and when I was single I just enjoyed my life.

I am also tired already of being single for such a long time, in fact I really want to get married this year, but seems my destiny refused to follow my instinct. I still have no boyfriend and I don't know if there's somebody who is interested of me. I pray day and night for that special person to cross my path but no result at all, I am beginning to worry to end up a spinster. I prepared my life to get married and raised children and I just couldn't imagine myself grow old with out a family of my own.

Well, I am proud of being single and in fact, I just started a discussion on the same topic! I have seen that hurriedly getting into a relationship does not work as your heart is not really into it. You just feel sometimes that you need someone to be there for you but after a while the same person becomes a headache. So, I have decided to take life as it comes. I do not go out looking for a relationship but then I am pretty open to a relationship.

I find that I long to be single when I'm in a relationship. The second I'm single again I wish I was in a relationship. Right now I am single and I think I am ok with it for the first time ever. I can't imagine being in a relationship. It's just been so long and I'm so out of whack with what is going on in the dating world. Like girls are supposed to put in more effort than guys now? I'm all about 50/50. This is what I'm hearing from my friends. Apparently a lot has changed and I missed the memo. Lol.

It's fun to be single. You have all the time for yourself and you don't have to answer to nobody. It's true it get's lonely at times especially on holidays. I was single for ten years before I got into another relationship. I learned to love myself first. Sometimes it happens when you least expect it.

being single does not mean to be boring. enjoy the things that you want to do as an individual like travelling, making friends, indulge your self in your favorite hobby, there are a lot of things that you can do. dont get tired of being single you will never know if that is your purpose in life. just keep on waiting for the right one to come. i have been in your shoes for sometime, i wondering why i cant find a bf who will love me the same way that i can faithfully love him. time will come that the God given partner will come your way. same with me just keep on waiting, keep on praying and let God do the rest.

It is hard to remain single as we are not expected to be like that.We have to find out our pair and live the life to the fullest.But I don't think that valentines day should trigger you and go for a quick lover.Let you wait until your mind shows the real passionate man for you.Hope you will find a good pair.Cheers!

If u say u are tired of being single. Its like saying you are tired og being free. Although i will have to hook up someday i (cos i can't remain single for life) still i can't be tired of being single. The only reason i will marry on the long run is because i'll love to have the kids of my own. I love being single cos i hate someone else influencing my life for me. In other words i love being single because i I LOVE BEING FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@lockheart (1405)

well, its not about being free that's why i'm tired of being single.. of course, the love a partner is different to the love you receive from your peers and family.. that is something special is different experience to have that feeling.. and everytime you think of it, how you wish you are loved by someone and you love someone.

There are lots out there who live a single life, not because they have chosen to live one but because they can't seem to find a mate that is right for them. If you sometimes feel tired of being single and would like to meet someone special, then maybe it's time to do what other singles are doing and try your luck online. You may give online dating a try or find a chatmate. You may also try going out with those people you know. You may be single but you are, of course, not alone. Try going out and meet new people. Just enjoy life.
