Poll: How long were you single?

Re: Poll: How long were you single?
They see us rollin'...they be hatin'.
Left 6/11, divorced 9/11, single now
ETA: I guess I've been single for 4 months. I checked out a while before I left my XH though...
I voted 6-9 month after XH. That was a huge mistake. I should have waited.
After XBF I waited a year. Much better decision.
3/12 5 mi -- 49:22 Pace: 9:52
5/1 Half Marathon -- 2:11:22 Pace: 10:01
5/22 10k -- 56:29 Pace: 9:00
5/24 3.6 -- 29:03 Pace: 8:18
7/10 15k -- 1:44:46 injured Pace: 11:14
10/29 5k -- 28:24 Pace: 9:04
We're kind of going out.
I seperated from X in June of '10 and went on my first official date in May of '11 so almost a year.
(I hung out with a couple guys in April, but never even kissed them. I was just testing the waters)
Technically I have been single for over 5 years!
I date, I just haven't had a serious relationship. It's all about the fact taht I just haven't found a guy that's worth the compromise yet. I'm confident that I will one day, and until then I have really grown to love my life as a single lady.
ETA: I dated a few guys for 2 or 3 months, but I still say I was single because it never became serious.
My husband left April 2010, we were divorced October 2010, and other than 1 guy I dated casually for about a month in January, I've been single and still am.
It looks like something I would have written...this is me EXACTLY. Over 5yrs, and I too have not found a guy worth the compromise yet
Excluding FWB, I was single for 2 years. I tried to turn that FWB into a relationship when it started (single about 6 mos at that point) but it didn't pan out, which was a good thing in the long run.
I just think it's extremely unhealthy to start a new relationship while you're still having full-on rage and hatred for the person you broke up with.
Good things are worth the wait.
Also,I have seen so many of my friends settle for mediocre relationships. I am too happy now to settle for anything that doesn't just add to the life I already have created for myself.
