Ok, im seriously fed up with people these days. To make a long rant short, I really REALLY dislike it when people put their single in their profiles (on any site) and then say they're taken.
My response:......THEN WTF IS WITH YOUR PROFILE SAYING YOUR SINGLE??! CHANGE YOUR STATUS YOU LAZY ASS!!!
Usually people say they're too lazy to change it, so you rather laze on your ass then do something good for the single community and make it clear your not on the market anymore instead of giving peoples hopes up. Nothing pisses me off more than that >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(
Has anyone ever experinced this and how you deal with these people?
You sound really horny :( . . .
Wanna go out for coffee some time? Your treat. :P
I have always found that quite irritating myself VanFox. How I deal with it is that I just don't worry about it too much, I have come to the realization that most people are ridiculously lazy I accept that fact and move on with my life. Besides I think I have grown too accustomed to being single. :p
It happens. Alot of people are lazy.
It is rather annoying, but you kinda have to just brush it off. Move on with it. Iunno.
Online relationship status's are funny that way.

And this is why I don't bother with online relationships
I'm single and not taken, and that's not going to change, by my choice alone. :P
Blame the profusion of sites that exists. People join something, discover their interface/user base/whatever sucks, and then abandon it. Or they have other, more pressing concerns. Eh.
You're going to have to keep in mind that just because someone is single doesn't always mean they'll want to be with you or date for that matter. I'm single but I prefer to be single til I find someone who's worth my time.
But if they're single you have a chance
What if they're seeing someone else? Someone could be single but still have an interest in someone else. And if someone has a boyfriend or girlfriend doesn't mean they wouldn't try to cheat on or dump the person they are with just to be you. There is no lesser or greater chance. Just be patient.
Theres a chance that people don't want to make it known? Some may feel no need to change their status so that they get little to no attention from peers.
I could also be a way of saying "sorry, but I'm not interested in you"
In some cases, too, it's that people don't want to be taken, that they want to be with new people, but once it comes down to it they feel guilty and change their mind. Selfish/trying to keep their options open, or a slew of a million other reasons that boils down to an infinite case-by-case basis. Just keep at it, eventually someone'll be worth your time. x3
meh its the internets you never know whats real and what isnt and i dont see why anyone would bother with internet relationships soundslike a whole kettle of issues and problems in itself

real life dating is where its at.
I dont post my relationship status. If you dont know it, I dont know you well enough, and its none of your business.
Social sites are making personal information easily accessible. Only a few years ago you had to actually have a conversation with someone to find something out about them. I Like having a private life outside of the public domain.
Oh hey, a thread necro. Now, um. Just to salt things a little bit (No offense, but I find this whole thing patently absurd; why do you need to hang a 'date target' bullseye on every single person around you casually?), how many of you can actually tell me what my own relationship status is at a glance? Do you need to be able to, and if you don't know, do you really have any business knowing?
Just wanted to revive this thread to still say that the trend is and always will be Van_Fox's tagline: "Why are all the females taken? T^T"
Now that I've gone through 2 failures from 2 completely different people that I have met in real life at one point or another, I'm starting to lose hope. (or maybe that's my 3AM hopeless mind talking) This isn't even internet dating, this is Fursuit Bowling dating. (since both my recent rejections came from people I met through bowling)
So as to not hijack the thread, anyone interested in giving helpful advice to me should PM me that advice.
BooHoo. Life goes on. Females are taken, It happens.
People are lazy and don't change there status, ext... There are MANY reasons.
If you have had more than 2 failures, your doing something wrong. Try something different.
Nuff said. Life is harsh. BAWW me a river. :angel:
LOTS OF LOVE

Well, to those that are curious, one was well documented in the "Rejection, need help..." thread and the most recent one was documented in the comments of one of my FA journals. (2nd newest one as of this posting)
But think of it this way: What if you saw so many couples in your age range and that it was "the cool thing to do"? Wouldn't peer pressure cause you to cave into desperation? (I cave to peer pressure on things I'm interested in all the time, hence why I needed an iPad, before the peer pressure came...) I felt I was on the edge of "belonging" to the couples community at one time. Now, 2 people giving rejections later, I feel so out of touch with people of my own age group and I feel sick looking at couples now. I don't want to feel more introverted, play TF2 more, and be alone... I want to find "The One".
Anyways, this can split off into a whole other thread if this gets carried away, so please PM me helpful tips to this so that this thread doesn't go off-topic.
Edit: Again, sorry about speaking out my mind getting too detailed.
I'm technically single, but my heart is taken. Meaning, Theres someone i want, therefore i'm not interested in someone else.
-shruggs-
For some, perhaps its their way of saying "I'm open to some things, so i keep it as single, but i don't want romance, etc." Who knows.
Really, its nothing to really get upset about. Sure its annoying if your looking, but if your looking you are bound to get turned away from some, so just accept it and move on? XD

I understand what you are saying I think.
But I think the best way to deal with it is to stop trying to.
I my self have been single for ever. And watched many people get together and brake up. Yes its lonely yes I feel left out and left behind but I find I let that get the better of me to much. all we can ever do is try to be happy with who we are. and like it or not a being in a relationship dos not make you any more or less who you are and as nice as it wold be to have someone to share my feelings with I only have my self to depend on. If I can not make my self happy then how can I expect someone else to make me happy.
The only way I can think of is to just be my self and wate... and hope someone will find me.
till then Ill just be my self. its the only thing I can be.
Since I posted that, I have pretty much no choice but to be introverted at the moment since:
1. I have a TV Diploma to finish.
and
2. If I "make a move", it's too sudden.
I pretty much have to give up now and hope for my well being becoming good enough to survive to my late 20s to late 30s. AKA, not getting into an unstable relationship now.

1. I have a TV Diploma to finish.
You can get a diploma in TV? How many hours do you have to watch? I may have a doctorate.
Ahem.
On a serious note, this is my diploma course: http://www.bcit-broadcast.com (http://www.bcit-broadcast.com)

agreed.
how can you ever hope to have a relationship with someone if you don't take the time to have not just
a conversation, but numerous ones. how do you know you
like or love someone, if you don't know them, first? 'love at first sight' is a nice sentiment, but i think most of us are grown-up enough to realize it's a fairytale. or maybe just translates to 'damn they're hot- i want them and don't need to get to know them because THEY'RE HOT AND I WANT THEM.'
I've just given up for the time being. As clearly stated by my previous 2 posts in this thread. /mrobvious.
The one single, fundamental truth about starting a relationship that 90% of men cannot grasp:
Don't try for it, just let it happen.

But if the Disney channel tells me it's true, then it MUST be so! True love is entirely based on just seeing someone who's hot. Personalities ALWAYS work when the main characters are pretty.

I would live in a nice big house with my talking animal friends. It would be well staffed, and we would all sing songs throughout the day as we cleaned and cooked. :D
