London, Nov 11 - Singer Alexandra Burke says she hates being single and wants to find the right man to settle down with.

"My sister calls me the girl that never needs a man. She says, 'You may as well just marry yourself.' But I hate being alone. That's a different ball game," femalefirst. co. uk quoted her as saying.

"The other week I went away on holiday for five days to Morocco, and it's the first time I've been away by myself. I cried on the plane. But I went to the souk, I ate every night alone, and I thought, I can do this," she said. (IANS)
