OK...Being Single Sucks!

If you're a Capetonian then you get no sympathy from me. Women in Cape Town tend to be dismissive, arrogant and difficult to approach then they wonder why they don't meet any guys outside of their little group - whining about all the guys being taken or gay.

Here is a tip. If you see a random reasonable looking guy looking at you and he smiles at you when you notice - smile back.

couldnt agree with you more ( i live in cape town)

I was in PE for about a week, and I was shocked at how friendly the girls were there... even in a flippin SPAR! lol

I recall one positive experience with smiling at a girl I did not know at the end of last year, it was at a pub. She smiled back :D so I got off my arse and went and spoke to her... and guess what, SHE WASNT FROM CPT!! LOL
 
Yep, we moved to a security complex and two women so far have had a cool conversation with me so far. One from the US and the other who moved down from Gauteng about two years ago. The locals treat me like a known rapist when they see me looking in their direction and lets face it - there is no way they could know.

Okay, so I'll smile back at everyone, m'kay? Lately my point of view is that all b*tches tends to get the guys. Don't call me stuck-up for having standards, most of the guys I know has shown my their real colours. One of my friends told me 'you can change him', but I just don't have the energy. My ex use to come home at 3 / 4 in the morning, and for those wondering why I didn't go with: I was preggies. Maybe the girls (some) in Cape Town are so grumpy because the guys made them that way?

But even though it sounds like it, I'm not trying to make excuses, I know I can be antisocial at the best of times, but:

Being single sucks!l

I had the same problem last year when I tried an online dating site. I had more hits from Joburg / Pretoria / PE / Durban and even as far away as Namibia, than I got from the locals :wtf:
 
I love being single, at first it was a bit depressing as i had quit smoking so i think it made it worse but i am glad we never got back together.

No more wondering how am i going to get out of a braai or someone's birthday or going out in general, no more dealing with moods. No more wanting sex all the time with a partner that never gave it a thought. Being single is actually awesome for me as i can happily chill on my own, watch sport and play on the pc :D. I love doing those things so for me it is awesome.

Obviously you get those days when you wish you had someone to love or to love you but then i think about all the shyte you need to do to maintain that way of life and i get as huge smile on my face :D.

How many of you go on dates via online sites? It must be pretty damn scary :D.

Unfortunately there are only so many bronzed, toned, rich pretty boys that most Capetonian women seem to be waiting for and most of those are either gay or taken.

I think you're just making yourself feel better ;)

It's OK to cry and miss her, killaddoob. We're here for you ...
 
Not really it worked both ways so we are better off, it does take sometime to realize it and get over it though :D.

Although i must say if i never go out with a girl/female/chick/lady then i would not worry, so maybe i am traumatized :D.

yeah great point! but you see im not 16 or even 20 so this single thing is getting abit ridiculous at the age of 24.never had a serious gf..... which is kinda embarrassing to be honest. :wtf:
Im up for ALL that whining and getting out of ppls braai's etc , oh and hell yes bring on the sex part :p
I mean a pc,movies,games,series can only please you to a certain point (insert porn jokes here) but after awhile it gets damn depressing knowing that the wkend coming up will either result in you having drinks with your fellow single mates and MORE than likely not meeting up with any decent ladies. and i completely understand what some of the above that are talking about girls not wanting to hear you out whatsoever. The rapist part i laughed at though :D

Ive been thinking Jhb is pretty lame of late but its not the place but its actually my outlook. I need to meet more people = the potential of meeting a decent girl.Im sorry but Clubs just dont do it for me....its actually fcking wierd how strangers just start making out within 30 minutes of meeting each other. EISH. And we all know the club is not a place to have a decent chat with all that doof doof doof. Ag il survive...anyways im leaving the office...time to go see my err .... ps3? EISH :)
 
Just keep in mind that there are girls out there who's got the same mentality. The other day I saw a pic of my nethew on a dating site. He okay (no no not in that way) so there must be some potential on the dating sites. But I must say that's its hard for me to chat with complete strangers.
