Comments on: Why I’m Single http://www.flyguychronicles.com/2007/04/why-i%e2%80%99m-single/ Love Advice Will Never Be The Same... Fri, 15 Jul 2011 17:58:14 -0700 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 By: Monet http://www.flyguychronicles.com/2007/04/why-i%e2%80%99m-single/#comment-45 Monet Thu, 18 Sep 2008 18:27:17 +0000 http://www.flyguychronicles.com/2007/04/17/why-i%e2%80%99m-single/#comment-45 I started out being single because I wanted to be a role model for my daughter. When my LTR ended, I opted to date "away" from my home, and my daughter never met anyone I dated. What started out as putting serious relationships on hold for 7 years quickly turned into 11 years. Now I am 41 and she will be 21 on Monday. Part of me feels like I sacrificed a lot having not taken advantage of a few good men along the way, but when I see the woman my daughter has become it also feels worthwhile. Luckily, I still have quite a youthful appearance and I hope it works in my favor if I decide to get serious in the near future.

I really believe the real reason shes' single is she's a single mother and most men without kids don't want another man's kids, thus leaving her with men that have kids. Biggest reason I think is she's in love with a man that's not in love with her, therefore any new guy that comes along will have to be bigger and better than that guy and also interested in her. Some guy that causes her to stop looking from afar and admiring the platinum producer and begins to admire him. That’s a lot of reasons to be single right there.

Can't say the same for these pseudo "superwomen" At least she admitted at times she sucks at this male/female thing. Can’t say the same for these pseudo “superwomen”

And someone mention earlier on if these women stop allowing these men to do what ever when ever we would have more mature, respectable, and decent men. If we stop acting like we just have to have a man for the sake of love we would do fine relationship wise. I find myself in some of those statements she made. I beleive a lot of women go through and deal with bullscrap because they did not have a father figure in there life. I did not and it took me a moment to get me together as a black woman in this society. I deserve to have a man respect me and who i am and i accept no less. Or I have the kick-your-a-to-curb-attitude also. I love this post also.

I can definitely understand the red flags thing. I think I'm a red flag hunter, I'm not trying to be surprised by BS. Overall, this was a Great summation of why so many women are single.

Some of those really hit home, especially the one about the stand up father! Its harder for a man to fill the shoes of a real man who has been in your life since day 1... if its not worth working for its not worth having!
