Types of Single Women
Speaking as a 30-something single girl, I thought the guys should have a real perspective on being a bachelorette. Here are some categories to shed some light on the stance.
Fastidious - Those who have dated yet haven't found the right person. Maybe they are looking for an ideal person sucked in by the fairytales of Hollywood and the media. In reality, I think they have issues with themselves because dating is really about getting to know others and finding compatibility.
Career Woman - She is too focused on her career to pay attention to the opposite sex. She is looking for financial security for herself first. She tends to be independent in nature and have an alpha complex.
Serial-Dater - Someone that dates frequently or a lot and for whatever reasons never meets her type and has gotten a bad reputation for her dating repertoire.
Misfit or Loner- Someone who is quite different or aloof from the pack and needs more self-assurance to find the right match.
Entitled - A girl that has been given everything by her parents and doesn't wish to settle for anything less than what she is used to having.
Social Butterfly - The name says it all. She's at every party and knows all the right people yet when it comes to personal relations, it never works out. Maybe she's been given a bad rap or giving off the wrong image. Maybe there are intimacy issues.
Latebloomers - These gals could have traits from the above categories that create a delay in they're dating. Or they've been coddled and have worries of leaving the nest and their parents.
There are other categories but I can't think of them right now. Maybe you guys could add a few or modify the above. Thoughts?

I think you pretty much covered it. I'm in a relationship, so none of these for me.
But when I was single I was more of a "Loner" category.
Stuck up bitches who think they deserve to be treated like queens, and bitch about their boyfriends to their friends, and then mope and cry when they're dumped on their little materialistic ass.
There are a LOT more types that were not mentioned. I am the type who knows what she wants and won't settle for anything less. I'm too secure in myself to waste my time on guys who are jerks!
@haloed@xanga - That falls under "Entitled," I believe. :P
@Xx_IWannaWWIIRomance_xX@xanga - Question is, are you the type who carries the fairy-tale unrealistic shopping list of personality/physical traits, or are you the type who carries a reasonable set of standards?
The only other thing I could think of is the single mom, sometimes a guy you like just isnt good enough for the kids amoung many other things. Single mother adds a whole other ballgame to it, I think a single mom could also be any of the described above - however, its also its own catagory for several reasons.
there is the "I pretend to be single type"
eheheh i've met those. The ones that are "in a relationship" but flirt around with other people as if they were not.
I don't know which one I'd be. I don't really care too much, I'm not necessarily looking. I don't try to stay single, but at the same time I'm not trying to get in a relationship. I'm the "take life as it comes, if it happens, it happens." I guess.
No wonder you are still single.
@poet85@xanga - wanting a guy who is not immature and who is not superficial, I don't think that's unreasonable.
@RaquelHiggins005@xanga - Me too
@shimmerbodycream@xanga.com - You are such a smart ass!
I agree with these. I'm definitely the social butterfly. It mystifies everyone when I say I'm single, but if you think about it though, the only guys I meet are also partiers, 2 partiers usually never work well together. There's gotta be a balance somewhere. oh well. I know I'll be ok by myself or find someone eventually!
There's also your stereotypical girl next door... She's cute, nice, kind of a goody-goody, possiby nerdy, pretty average, but not at all a bad catch. She just sits in wait for a real man to show up. She makes men come to her, instead of selling herself to men. She's usually smart and knows what she wants.
I'm just happy being single. That should be a category.
i used to be a serial dater in highschool :[
more in love with love than the actual guys i dated
now.. i don't even think i fit any of the types listed ._.
Would th clingy girl be added to that? The girl that is so needy that every guy runs from her? Or would that fall under one of those?
@Xx_IWannaWWIIRomance_xX@xanga - Depends. About superficial people, I'll agree with you outright. Nobody likes a fake. Now, as for maturity...that again depends on how one defines maturity, etc. (I'm not trying to say you're unreasonable in the way you define such...I don't know you and therefore couldn't tell...just saying that sometimes people use vague wording like you have with less than reasonable intentions.)
@nodnarbassoon@xanga - That's me!
@MsKittyCatty@xanga - Ah. The Klingon. I've dated one or two of those. Scary things, they are. :P
@poet85@xanga - Yup, scary and very self concious. One of the worst types to date.
There should be a "comfortable with being single" category.
good categories.
Persian girls are the "entitled" type! I tried dating 2 of them and after a while gave up cuz I wasnt about to be their prince charming while they were playing games mannn! lol
I would bang... the one in the blue shirt and white shorts because she looks shy. I have a thing for shy girls. I would also bang the one in the really skimpy pink top and jeans. She looks like she would get drunk at a party with me and help me seduce another.
I've never met any of these "types" of single women.
all these are negative.
I'm sure there's plenty of women out there who are just simply content with where they are being single.
I'm personally in a long-term relationship, so I'm not saying this out of offense. I think just how there are men who are happy being single, there are women who are happy they're single, too.
i WAS in the entitled + social butterfly category until i met my SO...<3
