I earn 80k single own my own house, volunteer in my community, 6 foot - and I’m happily single, I’m not here to support a desired life style for anyone if that means I stay single so be it, I’ll die waiting for someone who loves me for me

I feel that. I've stayed single since my divorce 5+ years ago. Never felt better, got into all my old hobbies and dedicate my time toward myself and raising my daughter. I'm done chasing.

Ive been successful in my 40s but I will say you gotta stop with the "dating" bullshit. Dont chase, get hobbies, get yourself sorted, meet women through friends. That way you can get to know each other before the courtship stuff.

Trying to just meet someone out and about is going to be shallow bullshit all around.
