Over 30 and still single, post here.

Since I butted into this thread, let me justify it. I'm about 35 (beyond 30 it's a math effort to know my age) and single myself. Quite enjoying the life. Have friends with families and you can see the envy on their face when you get to enjoy your freedom!

You've got a year or two on me, but I'm in the same boat for the most part. It's a good gig. Loving the unmarried/no kids life.

I don't want the kids, at the moment, but being that all of my friends are married and most with kids, I'd like to not be the third wheel when I go out with those w/o kids.

That's a good thing to be. You need to be around them. That way, you'll be the "single guy friend" who gets set up with all of their single friend and coworkers. Tell them to bring along one of her friends so you're not the third wheel.

that's a great plan.

The only thing I question is the attractiveness of their friends. Everyone's taste is different, they say she's good looking and then I'm like... ehh, not really?

Plus, they seem to only know Mexican girls, which I'm not really attracted to and tell them (always exceptions though ).

I guess it's part of my pickiness (or pickyness? **** spelling)...

It's like you're going in after being vetted ahead of time. You start ahead of the curve.

So? Go meet them. If there's nothing there, you still had a nice night out. It's a numbers game. The more you meet, the better the odds of meeting someone special.

That's right, it's just practice for the night.

have to have an open mind. After all , its only a date, or an evening. Go into anything like that with the intent to just have a fun evening, nothing more. No expectations. You never know. I met my husband on a blind date that I almost didnt go on

True. I've been on a couple of dates and was kind of nervous, but afterwards I was in the mindset of, "That was fun. I'd like to do this again right away." But wasn't ever anywhere I could act on that, since it wore off after a days work. Lol

It really depends on their personality. This girl I'm just friends with now (friend zoned hard, because she didn't want a relationship)... Her and I just clicked I guess. I couldn't get enough of her personality. It took a bit to get over the door being slammed in my face, but I'm over it now.

It's funny though, the few opportunities I've had have just fallen in my lap. I never went out really looking for them.
