I'm single because:
我单身是因为：

I am very, very, very picky. I figure I'd rather be single than be stuck in a relationship with someone I'm not totally crazy about.
我非常、非常、非常挑剔。我想我宁可单身也不要和我一点也不喜欢的人锁死。

Unfortunately, the few who pass my standards do not seem to like me that way.
不幸的是，少数达到我交往标准的人似乎并不那么喜欢我。

I'm lazy. I don't make much of an effort to meet people and get to know mildly interesting people.
我很懒。我不会花太多精力去结交朋友，也不愿去认识稍微有点意思的人。

I'm busy. I work a lot. Also, I do a lot of other things when I'm not at work and most of them do not involve meeting single men.
我很忙，我工作繁重，我在工作以外的时间也有很多其他事情要做，而这些事情大部分都不包括和单身男子见面。

I'm shy. I will not make the first move because rejection sucks.
我很害羞，我不会走出第一步，因为被拒绝太糟糕了。

I take relationships seriously, that is something I can't help, so I become pretty emotionally involved. This results in me being extremely picky. Also, because relationships are so important to me when I have one, it's not really compatible with my being extremely busy at this younger stage in my life.
我会情不自禁地认真对待感情，所以我会过分投入。这就导致我在这方面非常挑剔。另外，因为恋爱关系对我来说很重要，所以无法在我年轻的时平衡好恋爱和忙碌的工作。

Or maybe just because I'm young and don't really know what I am looking for, and thus I’m commitment-phobic.
或者也有可能只是因为我还年轻，并不知道自己真正想要的是什么，因此害怕给出承诺。
