Am I the only one?

I don't have a licence(no, I didn't lose it) but I do have a truck.
I just don't have an interest in driving but I fear that my lack of driving directly correlates to my lack of girl friends.

probably don't help much ;)
it all depends on where you live. nyc or a place with good mass transit... who cares if you have a license (though to have a truck without one is odd...). southern california, however... get your fvcking license already :)

You very well might have a point there. Is there any reason why you don't have your license? I know some people that were scared to death of driving because of some incidents with drunk drivers. One of them is 24 and she refuses to drive a vehicle to this day (incident happened 6 years ago).

I used to hate driving anything but my motorcycle. Now that I have my dream car (Black 2003 Eclipse GT), I love to drive. I can't control myself sometimes.

The girls that you want are the ones that aren't impressed by your awesome ass car. If you're looking to get laid, that is different. I started dating my first girlfriend before I bought the car or knew that I would and then bought it while we were dating.

I know a bunch of people that don't...including me.

Kyle's like 25 and he doesn't have his...has no need for it.

I'm 22 in a little under 3 weeks, and I don't have or want a license. I can't get one due to my vision but even if I could I wouldn't want to spend the money on a car. Busses are cheap and if you live in an area where they are effecient you are set.

My best freind is about 2 months from 22. He's just working on getting his becuase he got a job that might require him to drive 100km once in a while to a backup server area if he has major problems at the main site (he's going to be the head system admin). So he's getting a car soon and working on his license. And for what it's worth he has a (very cute and very nice) girlfriend, who he also lives with.

So not all non driving guys have no girlfriends.

I'm 16 1/2 and I just got my permit....feels kinda weird, but, i guess 19 would be weird-er. Couple friends haven't gottentheir anything yet, and they're like 20 something.

I'm 21, and I don't drive. I really have no desire to, cause I have this feeling that I would just be a horrible driver and would be better to stay off the road and not get myself (and others) killed.

No I don't think learning to drive will get you girls. I can drive and I don't have a woman :(.

My roommate is 18 and has no license yet. Has a car though.

I don't drive but plan to get a motorcycle. Insurance for motorcycle is like 1/20 of insurance for a car for me.

Sorry this took so long, for some reason one of my new friends had the urge to goto Walmart at 12:30 am in her pajamas.

At first the main reason I didn't want to drive was bcause I was afraid to damage my new truck which I was certain I would do. Now I'm starting to do it more but I get really nervous for no aparent reason.

I didn't get my license until I was 18. I don't like driving but the bus sucks big time. I don't have a girl either.

I got my license at 18, but didn't really use it much until 20 when I graduated from college. When I was off in college, and never needed a car enough to justify paying insurance on it.
I got a car when I moved back to CA. I usually drive it a couple times on weekends to go shopping or what not. I bike to work every day. Keeps me in shape.
