I've found that the older I get and stay single, the more I make married people envious. It's weird, right? You'd think they'd be happily married and not worried about you but in reality most people want to "settle down" and start a family because that is the way society has conformed us to live. So when they see a single person of the same age living by their own rules, they feel envious. That's the vibe I get. But then again whenever someone does anything different from the norm they get hated on.
Another thing that is cool about being single and approaching 30 (and you have to be good looking to pull this off) is making married women jealous because you're still dating new women, especially if you get someone younger. If you've met a pair of 30-somethings who've been married for several years, they tend to look bored already. They're still young and good looking and they're trying to get over that marriage honeymoon stage. Sometimes I'll just stare at a young married couple and I can see it written on their faces --- they wish they had played the field a little longer. And here I am doing just that --- playing the field. Most of my friends are married and whenever I bring a new chick around they look at me like, "Damn he's still doin it". And my married lady friends hate my guts because if I bring a hot chick who is 5-7 years younger than me then she will be like "Dude you're sabotaging my marriage". Basically married people hate single people. It's a psychological benefit for us.
