(Before It's News)

When you are in your 20′s, you feel like you have your whole life ahead of you. You date, you have fun, have a good laugh more often than not, but feel that time is still on your side. You have probably dated a bit, and think you know what you may want in a mate. You MIGHT not be interested in seriously settling down yet, BUT by your late 20s it’s not the outermost thing from your mind. In your 30′s, you may want to start planning the idea to settle down, or at least being a little more selective about WHO you date. If you ever pictured yourself with a family and having kids, this may also be on your mind, but this is the 21st century. I know I would have never settled if I was still single in my mid 30′s, only for the sake of having kids. But, if it’s something you REALLY want, by your late 30′s it may be on your mind more so then before. By your 40′s, things change drastically since 75% of your friends may now be hitched, have birthed a couple kids, and that same support system you used to have in your 20′s/30s, might not exist anymore.

Whatever the case may be, there are NUMEROUS reasons WHY you may still be single, whether by choice or not.  Let’s take a look at just 10 of those reasons:

Cool Top 10s

10. Money

There are many people who are single who feel they have not yet received the green signal anyone to spend their money on someone. Yes, there are people out there who honestly believe that loyalty means an expense. According to them, they have to give them gifts for birthdays and anniversary and all, and that becomes too expensive of an affair. Apart from that, going on a date also seems to be a costly affair. So, being single becomes one of the least expensive things for many people around. It seems to be a little strange but logical and the what not.

 

9. Your Personality

This is a harsh reality for some who do not want to face it. May be a person is single because nobody wants to be with them; simple as that. Their personality has lot to be with this. If they are a flirt and people around them know this you, they may reject you as a result. There are other parts of the equation that is worth mentioning too. Maybe they are just not attractive enough, by attractive we do not mean good looking but by the maintenance of personality matters. How you carry yourself? If a person is not tidy and wearing unclean clothes, it’s hard for others to be around them. So, if you are looking for a commitment you must have a makeover in your personality.

Perfect example was a girl on my coed trip. She bleach red hair and a crazy personality. She fell ill the second day on our trip. We went to a Shisha place where we shared a common nozzle to smoke.  Knowing full well she was sick, she put her mouth to the nozzle, and got everyone sick in the process. Never mind that she started singing the German national anthem on a trip to Israel.

 

8. Still love your ex

One of the major common reasons why people are still single is because they are still hung up on their ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. They are still not out of the failure of their previous relationship or maybe they still love their ex and cannot think of getting together with someone else. It happens sometimes that they are not mentally prepared to love someone else, as they still have feelings for their ex partner. From one viewpoint its right as it won’t be justice to your partner if you still love your ex; on the other hand someone is needed to make you forget your ex. Just watch Maury and you’ll  see how many people cheat on their current partner with their ex.

 

7. Too introverted

If you are introverted and are not getting out much – that may be a problem as well. There has to be a connection, in order for a relationship to work. If you are too shy to speak to the opposite sex then you are bound to be single. If you are so shy even to introduce yourself to a guy/girl how will you move from the first date? For commitment, you need to know and understand each other first, in order to take the next step. If you never take the first step, how would the next step after come? Communication is the first, essential step to a lasting relationship. Communication can make and break relations. So, if you are a shy person, maybe that’s the reason why you are still single.

  • When I say introverted…That means too many people are not my type. I am asexual now and also people annoy me these days. They are kind of dumb for the most part!
