    Hugh Hefner's Goal For 2012: Stay Single

    As the dawn of the New Year approaches, Hugh Hefner has one resolution for 2012 - to remain single.

    "This year has been a very interesting year for me, I almost got married," Hef told People magazine. "And as Holly [Madison] - a dear friend and former girlfriend - said, 'Well, you missed a bullet.'

    "I think that's accurate," he added.

    The 85-year-old Playboy magnate said the devastating events of 2011 (former fiancee Crystal Harris, then 25, called off their impending marriage less than one week prior to their wedding in June), made him realize being a husband simply isn't in the cards for his future.

    "I am clearly not meant to be married," he told the mag. "Married life isn't for me."

    While the bachelor is happily dating "two very special ladies" - Shera Berchard and Anna Berglund - Hef said walking down the aisle with anyone in 2012 is out of the question, adding that as long as he doesn't take a bride next year, he'll be "on top of my game."

      At 85 years old his goal is to "stay single"?...I would think it would be to "make it to next year".
      • Elly 4 mths ago

        Well said Thomas....... I agree with you.... At this age, there's no point in marrying.. And he knows that marrying is onjly for one thing and y to marry when he is already getting the one thing...
    • Kevin  •  4 mths ago
      Wow, at age 85 he finally realizes ,"I am clearly not meant to be married," he told the mag. "Married life isn't for me." I guess some are late bloomers. Sheez.

      HALLO SIR!LET ME GIVE A PEACE OF ADVICE,WHY WAISTE TIME FOR MARRIAGE WHEN YOU CAN SLEEP WITH ANY WOMAN, AND HOW MANY WOMAN AT ANYTIME?WHAT YOU NEED IS GOOD CARING FOR OLD MAN,EVENTHOUGH YOU STILL FEEL YOUNG FROM VIAGRA OR SUPERVITAMINS,GET A GROUP OF HIGHLY PAID EFFICIENT SERVANTS OR MAIDS TO TAKECARE OF YOU FOR 24 HRS ROUND THE CLOCK, WHICH IS BETTER THAN HAVING A WIFE AT THAT AGE! AND ALL THOSE BEAUTIFULL MODELS OF YOUR PENTHOUSE AND PLAYBOY MEGAZINES ARE ALLWAYS READY TO 'SERVE' YOU TOO, AND YOU WILL SPEND LESSER TO PAY THEM RATHER THAN HAVING ANOTHER MARRIAGE WHICH IS WAISTE OF TIME AND MONEY ! IF IT IS NOT ALLIGNED WITH YOUR LIFE PHILOSOPHY ,OR IF YOU VE A BELEIVE OR RELIGION ,THAN I RESERVE MY COMMENT AND WISH YOU, AN 85 YEAR OLD MAN, ALLWAYS IN GOOD HEALTH !I AM STILL BUYING YOUR MEGAZINES SIR!! TQ.

    • jimmyae101  •  4 mths ago
      hahaha..more sex with new girl with big boo and big bum..
    • A Yahoo! User  •  4 mths ago
      It all depends on what type of woman comes into your life. A nice mature lady may be a good thing, but wouldn't recommend anyone under 25.
    • beatmehard  •  4 mths ago
      Why is there so much hostility towards the old guy? So what if he says he wants to remain single or that marriage isn't for him. Let's be more open and less hypocitical or prudish. It isn't like he is having an affair with a minor. I recall there being far less derision expressed when a certain Mormon evangelist tried to bed a minor recently.
      As far as I am concerned, Playboy is an awsome publication and I have nothing but respect for Mr Hefner for creating it. If any of you hypocrites have actually read Playboy, you'll find that there's so much more than tits and ass.
    • Shurfire  •  4 mths ago
      Marriage is a very cool thing. The Hef and I agree on that one non-commitment. I shall remain on the "other side" of marriage... by design!
