Friends In Low Places

The nice thing about being single is that I get the house to myself.
The down side to being single is that I am alone in this big house.

Ok, so I share it with my cat and yes, he does own 75% - or at least thinks he does!

When a smoker quits smoking, the habit is usually replaced with some other oral fixation.
When I quit dating, I filled my social life with friends.

Problem is after ten years they are all getting married off and some are even on their second!

Nothing like a 40 year old single man trying to make new friends to fill his need for companionship.

So at the end of the day I have to send all my friends back to their families and I'm left alone.
I'm reduced to hanging out in virtual worlds online with weirdos.
For all I know, I'm actually one of them by now!

God help me...
I have friends in very low places.

I'm Single Therefore I Am

Where does one start when introducing himself to the world?
I'll begin with, "Hello."

My name, for the sake of the Blog is The Single Guy.
I'm forty years old and single.

Single by choice mind you.
Being single and 40 is no simple task.

There have been and are family, social, career and emotional considerations at every turn.
The worst of it being that I love Love.

I love being in love, loving and being loved.
"You're nobody 'til somebody loves you," right?

Maybe - but this nobody is somebody too.
And that somebody is The Single Guy.

Hello.
And welcome to my little Window.
