To Delete Or Not To Delete?

To Delete Or Not To Delete?,that is the question.
I have 9 women's telephone numbers in my cell phone's contact list.All but one has gone out on me for a first date,but not a second date. They tell me that they are busy. Well,I am busy also,yet I occassional call them to try to set something up.

All of them are not attached.Only married women and women with boyfriends are very friendly towards me.

So,should I just delete their numbers and give up? I have had enough of their lame excuses why they cannot see me on their days off. I am willing to make time to see them between my very busy schedule.
If a woman wants something or someone bad enough,she would make an effort to get what she wants. I am fed up with all of this assinine nonsense! If they really wanted to see me,they would call me!
Maybe GOD gave me a self-sufficient personality,because I feel that I really do not need anyone to be contented in my life.
Right now,I can really indentify with this popular song by Simon and Garfunkel.:

A winter's day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

Don't talk of love,
But I've heard the words before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

I have my books (Hobbies)
And my poetry(songs) to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.

And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.

How about you keep the numbers for a year but don't call anymore? That way their name will still pop up if they do happen to find time and are interested.

I seldom cut people completely out of my life...but that doesn't mean I invest very much time in friendships that are completely one sided.

However, if the numbers taunt you...then delete them.

This is a true statement. You have found the answer for these particular women.

Keeping them for a year before deleting them? That sounds like a good idea. After a year,while deleting the numbers ,I will just play that Michael Jackson song, "She's Out of My Life"

Why...oh why...did I not learn this 40 years ago?

move on brother. It's not healthy. Deletion is in order here. They aren't into you. Stiff upper lip sir.

Nope, the hard honest truth was she never was in your life. One date does not make a relationship. At that point, you should be looking at the name and wondering "who the heck is this?", as in, you really don't remember because you haven't wasted one more moment rehashing it.

Well....the sad fact is that only married and attached women care about being with me.Yes,I do admit that it was wrong,in 1992,before I was ever married,to have an affair with a married co-worker. She kept comming on to me,while rubbing her hands on my hands.Why did not any single women ever pay attention to me? Yes,I was desperate. I justified the affair,because it was better than being with a hooker,or going to a massage parlour,in order for me to be touched by a woman.

Just today,a co-worker,who has been working for the company for only two months,told me indirectly,that she has a boyfriend. Yet,from day one,she has been very friendly towards me,always waving at me,tells me that my tennis shoes are cute,and she says that I make her laugh.She obviously enjoys talking to me on lunch breaks. We even had coffee together after work.She just wanted to vent. I just listened mostly. Other single women at my work place have boyfriends,and they are very friendly to me. Even my gay male co-worker is always glad to see me.!
I just cannot understand why married and attached women always treat me better than single and unattached women treat me. I never murdered anyone. My initials are SW, not........O.J.

Happy women are usually friendly people...and maybe feel safe to be more open with you because they know that you know that they are not available. It sounds like you are likeable...so I can't say why you aren't noticed by the available ladies. Maybe it is time to get one of those non-available but friendly people (gay guy included) to help you figure this out.

(I won't even begin to pretend I understand the married woman who came onto you.)

I will ask them. Some women,who are attached,do ask me why hasn't anyone "snatched me up". All I could say is that we do not live in an ideal,and a logical world. I see homeless men on the street and some of them have a woman. If,GOD forbid that should happen to me,I know that I would not have any woman by my side.Who would want me? I am not wanted now,yet I am living the "American Dream".
Yes,there are more important things in life than money. But....for me..
money is the "consolation prize" I will just have to learn to live with myself,by myself,and for myself. I will just have to spend my money on myself,by myself,and for myself. I tried,I really tried to live right,to find a wife,as it says in the book of Proverbs. If those good christain women,who rejected me,are not a part of the solution,they must be part of the problem.
