This ''bachelorhood'', when it is for a long time can make a man lose motivation for a relationship or even to long for loneliness instead of companionship.

There are some issues that show you it's high time to end up ''bachelorhood'':

1. You think women show rejection towards you

When a lonely woman passes by you and smiles, most men take it as a compliment. Being lonely for a long period of time you assume she laughs at you because you don't look right.

Confidence in you is what women like in a man, and the lack of it happens when men are lonely for too long, so having confidence in you again is somehow difficult.

2. You start the habit of eating junk food

It is quite an effort to cook, so it's easy to eat fast food which is unhealthy. If you have your fridge stuffed with frozen food that can be cooked in 5 minutes, this is a sign you've been lonely for a long period of time.

3. You share your feelings with women

At this formal question ''How do you do'', addressed to you by a woman you start complaining about your lonely life. Even your co-worker at the office who makes coffee can be embarrassed by your desperation and your necessity of companionship from the opposite sex. It's time you find a lover.

4. Your standards related to women went down

It seems that the time that passes affects a man's brain. Maybe too much beer and suddenly all women become attractive. It is very important to be conscious of this and do something about it.

5. You bought a cat

It is natural that somebody who stayed alone for a long period of time wants a pet. Before going to the pet-shop, take into consideration that women consider men that have cats as being...odd.

6. You consider your friends as possible lovers

Unknown women are not interested in you and arranged dates are too long. What to do? Concentrate on your female co-workers, of course. They like you enough to date you, so why not more than that. Well, they look at you as a friend, a brother and the fact that you consider them possible partners is a sign you've been lonely for too long.

7. You spend too much time playing computer games

It can be either good or bad. If you find a lover and continue spending nights on computer games you will end up looking like a ghost because of this and be unable to have a decent conversation. The chances that you can have a relationship are pretty small, or none at all.

...and examples can go on

There is nothing wrong in being alone but you reduce your chances to be with somebody and ending up as a bachelor is a possibility.
