How many of you have decided to be single forever

[MisterTinkles]

What Mr. Tinkles said. I've had my share of trysts, but I'm at the point of knowing that I'm not going to settle just because. I am NOT going to support someone who 'lives for the weekend' just to spend all their time and money at the bar. I live in middle America. We do not have a thriving 'gay scene'. There are all of 2 gay bars in a 100 mile radius. Maybe my standards are a bit high for most people, but I need more than just physical attraction. More than anything, I need mental stimulation. Intelligent conversation more than who is doing what to who, and what is going on at the bar. That type of shit I couldn't care less about. I need someone who knows how to hold a job, has the ability to take care of themselves, and not rely on me to take care of their material needs. Also, someone not bat-shit crazy, or who fucks around and then lies about it. The hardest person to find is someone who can be faithful and truthful. That doesn't apply to all countries, cities or states, but it's very difficult to find around here. Believe me, I've looked. And that's not whining, it's called reality.
