Should Single be Desperate?

You shouldn't be desperate if you don't want to stay single for long.  Being desperate connotes that you want something real bad and there's a saying that if you want something bad enough, you scare it away.  There's some truth to that because the message you're sending to the universe is that by wanting it so much, you still don't have it.\n\nIf you want to create that situation for yourself wherein you will be happy and fulfilled in a relationship, you've got to get into that mindset first EVEN IF you don't currently have a partner.  Then when you're not even looking, that's when it will manifest.  All creation starts with a thought and when the thought is right, the universe will manifest that thought for you.  So don't be desperate. Be complete. Then you will Have.

It seems that usually unless your very lucky the answer is no. Often times people who turn to online dating sites are desperate and will go with anyone not a "real match". Also it is very easy to lie about yourself online so even if someone isnt desperate you may not be getting the real information about your possible match.

It actually depends on the person.\nSome people do not want to be trapped. They love the single life.\nFear of rejection is a great reason. Rejection not only hurts but it is embarrassing and demeaning. It truly hurts your ego.\nFear of loosing oneself, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, doesn't seem likely but is a possibality. Their upbringing has a lot to do with this problem. Insecurity is a great reason. For an abused person, it may be hard to believe that anyone could love them. soonandsoon\nI found that taking your time in a relationship may be what is needed. Most people cannot take an I love you with in the first year. Some want to hear those words two weeks after dating. You just have to wait for the other to give signs. Who knows for sure what those signs are for you? \nLike everything else in life, live one day at a time and the right answer will come. In other words, there are no right answers. Pray!

You are too desperate... You've asked this same question several times!  Perhaps if you work on making yourself interesting girls will want to talk to you... but they will run away if they sense desperation.\n\nBTW, the correct word is 'there' as in "Is there any girl out there (who is) single?"  Girls like good spellers too.  :)

ABSOLUTELY NOT!\n\nBecause some one is single, it could be that they are not looking at this time for a "mate".  \n\nIt could be that they havent met "MR/MRS RIGHT"\n\nIt maybe that they are simply not looking for something permanent, focusing on thier careers, school work, or other intersts, and find that a relationship could hinder them in what they are trying to achieve.\n\nIt maybe that no one asks them out!\n\nIt maybe that the person is shy, or lack self esteem on thier part, and wont talk to people, thus are going to be lonely for a very long time, if not until they are old.\n\nJust some reasons, out of a million and one reason...\n\nI wish you well...\n\nJesse

Absolutelly not go for it, from a guy we are very chicken at times especially the nice guys the more agressive guys that would ask you out without breaking out in a sweat are probably not nice guys. Being confident is a sign of knowing what you want and sure of yourself a rare thing. I wouldn't say it would come off as desperate. Just knowing what you want and going for it!

Take your time.  If she gets used to the idea, she might go along with it.  If she's determined to be single, you're wasting your time.

Before we can answer your question, I guess it's also important for us to know---why are you crying for single?\n\nIs it 'coz you're in a bad  relationship and you want to get out of it?  Or is it 'coz you've been single for so long and you want to find your partner in life?\n\nMaybe it all boils down to loneliness.  We want and need someone who'll be there for us, to share in our lives--joys and tears, happiness and sorrow... Maybe to enjoy being a couple, you have to embrace being single first---appreciate yourself, love yourself first...  Then, by doing that you'll value having a relationship...\n\nGood luck!
