Single and smiling

Yeah, I feel much better already by reading it.

If I'm supposed to be married, I will get married eventually. Finding a man with similar interests who is willing to wait a long time for some sex is near impossible in NY. I see myself not getting married till I'm forty.

delusional... she'll get married to a hitachi magic wand

[cyborg]

I hear you. Some people can't bear to be without someone. Some folks are in social circles where being alone is a stigma.

I wonder what her "wedding" invitation looked like?

Please come to my "It's All About Meeeeeee" wedding celebration. I hope she didn't expect the guests to bring gifts.

[martin_fierro]

She makes me ashamed to be Korean.

[gawatchman]

I agree. I am single, and try to live my life to its fullest, but I do not embrace "singledom", and I would like to be married someday.

[cyborg]

I used to watch her show on ABC. I used to think she was funny before she off the deep end!

"Consider the enormous popularity of Sex and the City"

yeah four single sluts living it up in NYC....and we wonder why the percentage of degenerate scum is swelling. the feminist propagandists are at it once again.

[SoDak]

I knew guys in college that couldn't fathom the idea of self-reliance, couldn't ever not have a girlfriend. I couldn't understand that. Many women I have dated in the last few years are amazed that I can cook, clean, and take care of my home without outside help.

[traumer]

Relax and enjoy life....

Valentine is just a big CONSPIRACY of the florist, chocolate and diamond business for the average Joe/Jane herd.

BAAAAAH - BAAAAH

To offer a new cliche: nothing ventured, 50%+ of your income not lost

I hear you, brother. Had that happen to me. But I'm dating again albeit with it understood there's no way I'm ever getting married again. Once bitten, twice shy.

"Janet Downes is sparing no effort for her June 27 wedding.
There will be a choir, a wedding gown, the usual wedding cake and flowers -- but no groom. She is getting married to herself."

Can anyone post her wedding night video ? :o)

[McLynnan]

I can see how you would feel that way, but don't settle! I think the desire to be a mother is strong in most women, and it sounds like that weighs heavily on your mind.

I was married 30 years, now divorced almost a year, and have a junior in high school. Now that I'm uncurled from the fetal position I was in when I learned my marriage was over, I am seeing a LOT of advantages to being single. I'm learning how to selfishlessly indulge myself (within the parameters of being a good mother). This is a new and fun thing for me after so many years of always putting myself second. While I have some sadness about the approaching empty nest, I'm also excited about the possibilities that are ahead of me. I'll never say never, but for now a new relationship is not even on my radar. I love my new independence.

[Enterprise]

LOL! Outstanding point - as usual!

Finding a man who is straight and not a liberal is difficult in New England and the mid-Atlantic states. Check out the South! Men in the south are gentlemen and their politics tend to be conservative. (They all want sex though)

[PackerBoy]

I was in no hurry to marry, and found the girl of my dreams and was married at age 40. If you had asked me while I was single if I was happy, I would have to say yes because I was. I am also happy now that I am married.

The people I knew who were unhappy single are still unhappy, married or not.

[PackerBoy]

Yikes! That could be me in a few years. Better lay in a supply of Grecian Formula.

[PackerBoy]

Kinda Like Sex and the City.

she'll get married to a hitachi magic wand

I don't get it!

Bwahahahahahahaha!!! (now I do)
