I cry myself to sleep over it. Cant get more single than that.
This thread is 5 months old and I'm still single, OP. And I have also resorted to online dating and get no replies to my messages. I was told to stop messaging girls in Victorian prose, but my natural language still yields no results even as I tell them I look better in person than in my photos and if they can say the same. Someone go out with me.

It depends on your social circles. I'm not single, and very few of my friends are. Where you live, what kind of places you hang out at and how old you are is going to play a big factor into this.

What a borrible, evil trick to play on someone. If that happened to me I'd probably be so upset I'd make a thread

Hold camera up at an angle to obscure the fact that you're the marshmallow giant from Ghostbusters.
On the previous page you replied to someone who stated they met a girl who'd lied about their weight with a considerable difference, and seemed to think that was okay.
That's really not okay, and a terrible way to begin a relationship.

Like six years ago me and a friend of mine met a girl who seemed to be pretty into us both, we hanged out a lot and things got a little invested let's say. I told my friend "dude it's ok, you need someone more than me", and left them to their devices.
They married and i'm still single.

I don't see where I did that, so I guess you're just using my post to air your thoughts and don't really care what I type. Ok continue.

Still single. I've dated a few people, but none of them clicked. They seemed to like me, though I didn't like them for a relationship after going out. I feel like I'm too strict.....so many crushed hearts.....
....oh well!
....oh well!

Well, there isnt anything wrong in expecting up to date, honest pictures in dating sites.
If its exaggerated, of course. Like years or looking very different to how they look now.

You're such a good friend.
There's nothing wrong with that, no. But I also doubt that person I quoted actually knew they were 50-60lbs heavier than their photos. Hence the paranoia comment. Sounded like an exaggeration.

If you're like many people, being overweight is a deal breaker regardless of how awesome you may be, it's fair to be upset about it. If you want to be represented as a thinner person, get thinner. Otherwise tell the truth and you'll attract people down with it, it's really simple and prevents a horribly awkward moment.
Now if it's just a friends thing, sure, why not?
Respect.
I once told a good friend that I had a crush on a guy from work (years and years ago, when we were all coworkers). Then I quickly learned she started banging him behind my back. :<

I've been single for a while now
date here and there
whenever I feel like chatting up women I bring my dog though
"Oh he's so cuteeee"
"Why thank you, he's a rescue"
"Oh my goddddd"
"I had to nurture him to health when I first got him as he was dying"

Imagine if we went to the Bar together. We wouldn't even be in this thread.
You know, if you're going to take the superior tone, you could at least pay attention to your own posts. To be fair, I wrote "the" previous when I meant "a" previous, but you should probably remember your opinion on these things, unless you're just arguing for the sake of talking down to people?
And this exact thing has happened to me. In the girl's pictures she was in great shape, looked like she worked out a lot.
When I met here, she looked completely different. Very overweight, and much older. The photos must have been from a significant amount of time ago.
Now, I have no issue with weight (to a point, call me shallow) if I get along with a person, but this didn't exactly set us off on the best terms. I'm sure you'll agree, this kind of deception is not okay.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Also how attractive and charismatic you are.
1) This thread is like 6 months old.
2) I offered up a reason as to why they chose those photos and said that they were paranoid.
3) You're popping in to argue in a 6 month old thread. It's kinda silly.

I was speaking more towards the appearance of everyone around you being in a relationship, not your own ability to find a partner. But yes, of course, being more attractive, charismatic and otherwise appealing than those around you will help your odds.

Lots of people are single. But the odds of meeting somebody that is also single, looking to be in a relationship, has reasonably common interests with you, is simpatico in personality and habits, is intelligent, is attractive enough to meet whatever standards you have, is not too far apart in age, and is decently close, geographically, are pretty low, especially if, like me, you're an odd loner with a very specific worldview and a combative personality.
Thankfully, life has much more to offer than romantic love.

I should have expected you'd make an excuse for it instead of levelling a decent debate, forget it.
Dogs are the ultimate wingmen. The ultimate I say!
Sounds good 👌. I wasn't looking for a debate.
The grass is not greener.I miss being single

With work, I just don't have the energy to devote to a relationship. I've gone on a bunch of dates and even seen a few girls for multiple weeks, but it always took the energy out of me. I have to fret about each text, make sure I am on my game when I am with them, and I have to decide if I even like them beyond that.
I think it is a case of being fine that I am single and also not meeting the right girl that makes it feel worth the time and energy investment needed.

Not to be rude, but have you been single that long from choice?
