Why are you single?

The last relationship I had left me high and dry that made me question my self-worth. I haven't dated anyone exclusive for almost 3 years now. I always wear my heart on my sleeves, even if its tattered but I always end up with people that just have problems with commitment. I'd get asked out a lot or get hit on a lot, but the things i'm looking for are always out of reach. I don't have sky rocket standards, and i'm not high maintenance either. I'm pretty much straight forward, and go after what I want. I don't have a problem telling a guy I like him or ask him out first. But genuine connection, man, that's all I want. I could care less about where you bring me for dinner, or buy me for presents. I just want to be remembered and cared for as a human being.

Life is too short IMO to play mind games. I'm too tired of those. I could die tomorrow and regret in afterlife why I didn't say what I feel or tried something new to me just because i'm too scared to put myself out there. I've just never met anyone who thinks the same and makes me think that my choice of solitude is shit. If someone is hot and cold to me I just leave.

I'll be single forever lol
