Interesting question.So does your SO know what "Single" means? Do they think it means "not married" or do they understand that it means "no buddy"?
In the context of what WE know about this board, yes.
You're still having to deal with the broader range of folks out there, though, to whom the term 'single' means unattached/unmarried through common usage in society. It's one of the reasons I proposed the addition of "The Buddyless Diver's Organization" to our name from time-to-time.
Think back to SeaSpace, Kamala--how much time and effort did we all spend explaining--over and over--that the 'single' in the group's name means 'buddyless'?
--and that it's not a dating site for divers?

Well, my definition, is "neither married nor engaged". If I have a girlfriend (rare these days, given how impossible a person I am) I consider my self "single but with a girlfriend".

In the context of this group - yes.
In the context of - "who were you chatting up at the bar when I got there?" - No

No aquarium, no tank in a marine land, however spacious it may be, can begin to duplicate the conditions of the sea. And no dolphin who inhabits one of those aquariums or one of those marine lands can be considered normal.

Very good observation!In the context of this group - yes.

And even more cool that your wife understands that SINGLE means no buddy in the diving venacular.
Any other Married or Spoken For divers having the same issue?

I think my SO still thinks that it was just one week-long Roman orgy in Bonaire.
