    ^No amount of time is 'bad'. We all have different needs and wants - some people need to move on quickly, others can sit back and wait for someone special. :)
    It's bad for me mate!

    I've been single for a year and I've made the most out of it, but recently I've been looking for more than just sex but no luck.
    Girls just seem to be intrested in one thing nowadays. Dirty lot. :p

    i'm seeing that more myself too! i think it's with women trying to be more independent and realising that at a young age not many lads want to settle down so we may aswell play them at their game. ;)

    and to those people that are like 'omg shit i've been single 18 years': would you really count a 3 day relationship you might've had when you were 5?

    I personally wouldn't; to me that's not what i'd class as a 'proper' relationship.

    sorry perhaps i didn't word it properly..

    what i'm trying to say is while you moan that you've been single all your life if you think about it you haven't really because there are ages when you don't really have relationships.

    please tell me that makes sense?

    Yeah you've missed having no money and everyone conveniently choosing that moment to come up to you in a club, despite no-one ever doing it normally.

    Couple of months for me, but that only lasted a month or so. I'm into someone at the moment too, but I'm planning on moving to Manchester in September/October time, and she's going to uni, so I don't see any point in exploring that further (for want of a better phrase). Don't plan on getting a girlfriend within the next six months or so either, until I set up my life there. Which means I'm bound to meet the love of my life and fuck it all up somehow.

    i understand but don't agree.


    why?

    yes, technically you may have been single all of your life but realistically...

    You, hopefully.

    I'm sorry, I'll go and stand in the corner.

    Nah my mate's buying a flat and he's gonna have a spare room, and I want a job making TV programmes. Not many of them where I live at the moment. So I'm gonna move in with him and use all his contacts in the TV business (all three of them).

    I was just thinking this as I was reading over this thread - "I've been single for 18 years" means a lot more if you're 40 than if you're 18. It makes more sense realistically to say you've been single since whatever age you were when you started being interested in the opposite (or same) sex. Personally a statement like "I'm 20, been single for 6 years" makes more of an impact that "I've been single for 20 years" because it shows how long you've wanted a relationship rather than just how old you are and haven't found the right person yet.

    I've been single for 5 hours now. Broke up with my girlfriend tonight, she is moving to the States for good on Sunday. It's all good. Can't really call 2 months a relationship anyway....(not being bitter, I swear...:))

    Been misbehaving ever since. Though I seem to recycle people lol. I probably won't want a proper boyfriend for another good lotta months yet.

    21 months for me too.

    In the time you've been single, have there been guys/girls at all? Kisses, one night stands, brief flings but nothing that could be classed as a relationship?

    perhaps one or two brief snogging sessions but that's about it :(

    mind you, i also don't go out as much as i used to (am in middle of changing that)

    but i also have a very high sex drive and it's a frigging nuisance :eek2:

    i'm buying new batteries like every other week :eek2:

    Its been 6 months for me. Until last month I was quite happy being single cause I was making the most of my last year at uni/spending time with my friends etc, and there was no point in starting anything anyway as I was only living there for 4 or 5 months longer.

    However, now I really would like a boyfriend, unfortunately I just don't seem to be meeting any men!
