    Does anyone here choose to stay single?

    I don't choose to stay single, but I don't go looking for dates. Yes, I do have a dating profile, but I haven't updated it in a few months. There was a time a year or two back when I delved more deeply into the world of romance. Where I put more effort into finding someone. And I did meet some...
