Did any of you choose to be single, especially going into your forties? Do you regret that choice? I'm facing a situation where a woman wants me to commit hard but I'm not sure I can give up the freedom.

Well I didn't choose it at first, I was widowed, but now I am choosing it. I have my children and my house, and now I have a full time job. I have no desire to start another relationship. And frankly I don't have the time. I'd rather chill in my sweat pants with my kids every night than bother with trying to talk to or meet men.

i was widowed youngish. been on my own 16 years. sometimes i wish i had a fella to hold hands with, and laugh with. i love men. almost everything about them, White ones that is. but i've been out of the game so long i am at a loss as how to even connect in a romantic way. i am scared, too. i can be suckered by a pretty face.

I'm 37. For me it's not just the time thing, it's also the pair bonding thing. I'm in love with a dead man. And I don't think I could give another man my full love. And that is not fair.

you are young yet. give it a few years. there'll be a yearning for companionship. don't let it go on as long as i did.
