0hpenelope Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Hah! You're gonna get different answers for this one. But generally, I would say that we're all similar in that we have a lot more hang time with the lady friends. I'm a nerd, though. When I'm single, I focus on school. To relax, I play a couple of video games, take a long drive (but it hasn't happen with the crazy gas prices!), write, or if I don't want to think... I sleep. Some of us might like shopping? I don't know, I can't really relate to the whole shopping thing. I only shop when I need to buy new clothes because I'm getting holes in my pants or shirts or whatever.
Lyssa Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Nothing extraordinary. Still do the same thing whether I am single or not. Spend time with family and friends. Play tennis or get into any sort of outdoor activities. Dancing, movies, road trips with friends. Usual stuff.
D-Jam Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 just curious =) I'm a guy, but I will tell you what I think based on female friends: 1) They hang with their circle of friends all the time and seemingly never let anyone new in. They'll go camping and hiking and other fun activities, but yet still never place themselves in arenas where new people could meet them (unless someone knows one of her friends). 2) They do their own personal hobbies, classes, etc. That could be an ideal spot for men to meet them. 3) They sit at home eating Hagan Daas, watching chick flicks, contemplating joining a dating site, but decide not to while complaining how men always pass them up for the "sluts". 4) They are out always in "girls night out" at the bars and clubs. Some stay open to meeting guys, others stay in the pack and never separate...but yet later complain how guys won't approach them.
JohnnyBlaze Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 The same thing they do every night, Pinky. TRY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD. Sorry, don't ask how that one popped in my head.

cutegirl Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 There was a time when I was single for 7 years from around age 20-27, mainly I focused on making money, it was all about money. For fun I went shopping and watched tv, I loved makeup (still do) so MAC makeup was my hobby. I also spent a lot of times browsing pics of celebs (I still do) and was really into fashion, hair, and makeup. That was about it. I am still single again (and am not looking for a man because I am happy being single, I DO NOT want kids and like being single) and do the same thing. I am comfortable spending time with myself and make my own money. I don't need anything from a man.
pandagirl Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 This question makes it sounds like women don't have anything to do if we don't have a boyfriend. I know it's not meant to be offensive, but it sort of is! I have to say, whether I am dating or single, I pretty much lead the same life. I may spend more along with my boyfriend if I have one, but I also still see my friends often, do my own things, etc. There's a lot to do out there! Or at least, in NYC there is.
D-Jam Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I hate that crap Eh...what can you do? A lot of times the girls do go out on the idea that they don't want to meet any men. Although by the way said girls dress, I think it's more they don't want to meet MOST men, but stay open for a few. I am comfortable spending time with myself and make my own money. I don't need anything from a man. Good for you. Unfortunately a lot of men would want you. I mean the "unfortunately" in that you want to remain single. A lot of guys like the independent smart savvy woman who can stand at his side rather than behind or under him. Keep it up regardless! This question makes it sounds like women don't have anything to do if we don't have a boyfriend. I know it's not meant to be offensive, but it sort of is! I think that's because many of us see loads of women who are all about their RLs and BFs. Seen a few who literally make the RL their whole life...like they do nothing unless it's with the man as a couple. Shows insecurity. In your case, you have your own life, which is good. Unfortunately a lot men are looking for women who have that mix of independence and yet DESIRE (not need) for a man. I have to say, whether I am dating or single, I pretty much lead the same life. I may spend more along with my boyfriend if I have one, but I also still see my friends often, do my own things, etc. There's a lot to do out there! Or at least, in NYC there is. That's what makes you cool.
Lyssa Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 The same thing they do every night, Pinky. TRY TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD. I told one of my good guy friend that I'd like to try to take over the world. You remind me of him by saying that. I miss him!
Trialbyfire Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 We date, hang out with friends, take in more clients thus more projects, work out more, play online more, IM, email, shop, swim, hike, walk, clean more, read more, okay, basically more of the same!
D-Lish Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Well, yes... masturbate is one activity I like to engage in. But I also do so when I'm in a relationship, so it's more of a consistent hobby. Otherwise, I walk my dogs, see my friend's, post on LS and go on dates.
xpaperxcutx Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 read, write, work out, LS, girls night out, shop, sightseeing I feel like I'm filling out a profile... It's more of the same things I usually do, and there's no guy constantly calling to ask me where I am. I love being single. ( and i'm not being sarcastic).
2sunny Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 i like being single too. i can do what i want when i want and with whom i want. which might include friends (men and women), family, my kids (they are a bit older) and my dog. i spend time: at the beach and in the ocean relishing our beautiful weather reading keeping up with basic things like hair and nails doing household and yard projects and chores exercising cooking with and for peeps i love playing games (as in board games or puzzles) enjoying sporting events especially baseball enjoying music and concerts (we have awesome venues here) i generally like to keep things simple - it makes me a lot happier.
cutegirl Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 single. A lot of guys like the independent smart savvy woman who can stand at his side rather than behind or under him. I prefer standing in front of the man actually. He can stand behind me.

Balthazar Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I call Jenny - 867 5309. I hope she is still single! I think part of the problem is that a lot off the women prefer being single than in relationships.... CHeers,
Ruby Slippers Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I really enjoy being single, even though I have spent most of my adult life paired up. I work on all the things that matter most to me -- writing and recording my music, getting into great physical condition, going out and doing new things with friends, going dancing all night, cooking new fancy dishes I've never tried, learning new things (pottery, spinning yarn, swing dancing, arts and crafts), doing art projects, massively cleaning my home and weeding out clutter, playing tennis, traveling. The longest I've ever been single was a year, and I loved all the light-hearted fun with men. Knowing that I wasn't interested in a serious relationship during that time, I could just have fun and keep it light. And of course, my lack of commitment only fueled their desire more. I got so much accomplished that year.

CHeers, You know,I drunk dialed that number a few times and they are usually not active numbers no matter which area code I put in front of it. However,one time I got an answereing machine with that frickin song on it lol
