Is it normal that i am single and only able to attract ineligible women?
I have been a single male for over 12 years. I like women and would like to be in a relationship, however I have a problem with shyness, so most single women don't give me a second glance.
I do have several ineligible female friends who I am comfortable with, thus I am not shy around them. I have repeatedly with several of them had to push them away because they are involved with somebody else and had become attracted to me in a way that is not appropriate for someone who is already involved with someone else. (NO, I will NOT take advantage of that situation...I will NOT be that guy.)
This has become a problem with my attempts to begin relationships with eligible women because it has become such a habit of automatically pushing back any attempts at a romance that I end up doing it with the single women I like! I realize what I have done only when it's too late. Help!
