Yes I have other interests, but they don't "take over" they just fill in the time I would otherwise spend chasing skirts

lol. Hmmm. ~7. I wouldn't consider myself ugly, but I don't make womens knees go weak from looking at me.

lol (again). I'm not overweight, my self-esteem is fine. It's not a "I'm no good for anyone deal"

This thread got be thinking back to ye olde high school days and something occured to me that hadn't previously. I asked out a few girls, and what I just realised was that I was relieved when they knocked me back. And by that I mean thoroughly relieved, I wasn't even the slightest bit upset. Which leads to the question of why did I ask in the first place. Beats me.
It's not a reaction to anything, it is just a complete lack of desire. I'm not stupid enough to comletely rule out the possibility, but I would never go looking for it.

It is not about a conscious choice to remain single. It is the absence of desire to seek companionship. Maybe it might make more sense if I gave some history. I'm an only child, raised by a single parent (mother) in a predominantly female family. I never had many friends throughout primary or high school and my friends at uni are all female. I've pretty much had to keep myself occupied and rely on myself to sort out any issues. I suspect primarily interacting with women may have had something to do with the lack of interest, but like I said earlier, it's not a resignation to singledom, just a lack of interest/need in coupledom
