Is it normal to want to remain single?
Previous relationships have made me anxious about relationships in general and I was wondering if it's completely normal to want to remain single until you find a guy that you like back?
There are a few guys who are interested in me but, I'm not looking for a relationship. Being single is stress-free for me & it's actually more fun.
So, is it okay to turn down the guys who are interested in me because of my want to remain single?

Of course it's normal :)
I feel that way right now. Sometimes relationships are too complicated and i think it's a lot easier to stay single until you find the right guy that you can be comfortable around but still love.
& Yeah, turn down whoever you don't want to date. Don't say yes just to spare their feelings.

• Hi well here are 4 starters to help u on the road to a more POSITIVE image and will help u overcome those conversation blanks & low self- esteem issues Ciao♥ **************************************... 1. BE SELF-AWARE AND DEVELOP A POSITIVE SELF-IMAGE When you trust yourself, are self-aware and can frame yourself in positive terms, your confidence soars 2. TAKE CONFIDENCE CUES FROM PEOPLE YOU ADMIRE You need to fake it ’til you make it! Consider the way a confident person behaves—observe a friend, relative or colleague 3. FOCUS ON YOUR STRENGTHS, NOT YOUR WEAKNESSES If you have a realistic understanding of your own strengths (we all have our strengths) and apply that to your most important and meaningful goals, you have a powerful tool with which to build self-confidence. 4. BEWARE OF BARRIERS TO ACHIEVING YOUR OBJECTIVES If frustrating obstacles or negative feedback cross your path, don’t give up! Developing confidence takes a little persistence. Set realistic expectations: those lacking self-confidence often see an everyday barrier as a signal to throw in the towel. For example, if in conversation and it goes quiet or u say dopey things then LISTEN and ANSWER accordingly about subject don’t expect to be the life of the group right away—this unrealistic expectation puts too much pressure on you. A good talking strategy is to give others your full attention. This not only shifts your focus away from thoughts like ‘this is a disaster’, but also makes people around you feel wonderful—a two-way confidence booster! Now go and let others see your no shrinking violet YES!!…… Candice ♥ Life experience

i think part of you wants to be in a relationship, but the other part that feels not-hot holds back the other and this cuz the stress-free feeling you have when you're not in a relationship. first part is your subconscious and the other is YOU. let go of yourself, the winner part will show itself sooner or later. then you can make your decision about being single or not.

Of course it is, why wouldn't it be?
I can do whatever whenever I like and not have to worry
or say I am single and not have to lie like others
who are not single because it feels better to you
