Probably ninja'd, but I'm single because I never asked, never been asked, low self esteem, too weird, and I think I might be a bit picky...
The worst part is that I've realised just now that I have "chick buddies" who I'm very sure had crushes on me when we first met. I was even asked by the most beautiful girls I know, to dance with her, and I didn't catch the cue! Soo... all the reasons above (it's actually a little by coice as well, realtionships seem tricky) plus the fact that I have no idea how to see if someone really likes me....
*sigh* wow, a bit of a downer but it felt pretty good to vent... : )

I'm single because I'm too nice to girls. I start talking to one, and I'm so nice that she Friend Zones me (yes, that is a verb!). Everyone tells me I need to be a douche bag, but I can't. And all of this sucks even more because I have really low self esteem, and being in a relationship has been the only thing to ever help that. Fuck! It makes me angry/depressed just thinking about it!
EDIT: And the same reason as the post above me. There's a girl that apparently flirted with me for like 8 months and I didn't notice until she told me.

I would have to spend money on her, it would take time out of my life and we will break up eventually anyway
So unless she's made-by-gods perfect, its seems like a complete waste of time for me.
EDIT: And if you are an unemotionally attached person who only wants sex out of a relationship (i.e like myself)
then you will find that don't really need a relationship to get any. *puts up flame shield*

I'm single because I'm too fat...I've dieted for 3 years and have actually gained 4 lbs...I'm also too nice, I get Friend Zoned and rejected because of it. And, I'm just incradably nervous and shy around girls_I fumble words, sweat, say really dumb/nerdy shit...not to meantion, I like older girls, and not many older girls like a fat, shy, nerdy 16-year-old who does nothing but complement and listen to every word you say !!!.../rant

Where's the option for "I'm too awesome and no body could ever meet my standards"?
Not that I'd pick it....
Other than the fact I'm not what you would call a good-looking person, There are a number of reasons why I'm single...
For starters, I'm very quiet, so I feel not many people know the real me... Even my best friends, Also my quietness leads me to be unwilling to go up to people I don't know or even ask people I do know to go out. I picked the low self esteem option, But I feel almost all of them apply. So I'll give a response to each one:
-I really don't want a signifacnt other... I don't see the appeal (of course I've never had one so I wouldn't really know).
-I only asked once, and dispite the fact she said yes, It didn;t go well (I blame the self esteem on that one).
-Like I mentioned before I'm particularly average looking.
-I don't have much money, but I don't see how too poor is an adequete reason. If someone only liked me for the money, then they are not worth going out with.
-I do feel that I am a little different. Although, I feel I'm much more at home here, so I wouldn't consider myself weird here (or amoungst my close friends), But I would say most girls would find me weird.
-You mentioned Picky... And I do feel I am a bit picky. I don't just kiss any girl that I see at a party. I often find myself thinking, "yeah she's hot, but not THAT hot".
And theres another reason that I can't really put into words.... I would like to but I can't... That happens to me a lot... because I don't think with words... again, it's hard to explain...

Bad luck? I've been rejected more times than I care to count, and none of your poll options fit except "other".
I'm simply a social trainwreck and keep company with other social trainwrecks. It kinda circumvents itself.
Many reasons, mainly by choice because I have had too many stories about people who were abused, exploited, manipulated or otherwise misused for me to ever consider gambling my future on someone else.
Also, with my asperger's, OCD, tourettes, disgraphia, screwed up sexual orientation, possible schizophrenia and sexual anhedonia, I seriously doubt anyone would even WANT to get close to me.

At least you said it before I did. Oddly enough the dance thing happened to me as well. Ironically/tragically I actually liked the girl at time! Then when I moved on she was all over me, which I didn't realize until she was also no longer interested... **** what a parody. It was kinda like the Romeo & Juliet thing with them dying in the ending.Phenom828 said:
Also the only girl I actually asked out was seriously scared of me. Love turned to bitterness in quite literally minutes. The one girl who I can relate to and hold a conversation with is a good friend of mine and if I screw that friendship up I may as well start slitting my wrists.
My rationalization as to why I am single in three simple steps:
I cannot identify when a girl likes me (on his blindness)
All the decent girls are know are good friends and just that ( My attempts at romance are truly pathetic)
Life's a truly ironic *****. ('nuff said)
