very good post...
I am married to my profession and business. I'd likely be divorced due to lack of time. Why go that way? You can have a fulfilling life without matrimony.I can't tell you how many hundreds, if not over a thousand, patients, male and female, when getting to know them, tell me they should have not gotten married, they wish they were me, etc, etc,...yes...your NYC example rings true.Its a big world.Do what is best for you.
What about when you're 85 and you have no kids and all your friends are dead? Don't you want a wife there to talk to and change your diapers?
I feel so much better about myself now, thanks to all you damaged bastards.Married people yearn for independence, single people feel they're missing out. You can't win.
BB, people end up where they are supposed to be. To worry about things and force outcomes is inane
I feel the same way! Great post. One more point is? Love don't pay the bills!
Just because one decides never to marry? They don't understandThat doesn't mean there won't be companions?Of course there are After my Grandma died. My Grandfather told me that he's never had so many women in his life! Save and invest your money wisely.Very, very sage advice, rarely followed, Chef In America the only reason most people take care of their aging Parents is to get an inheritance! Disgraceful. Work Hard. Count on nothing. I hope my parents outlive me. Both are 68.
Anyway back on topic.
If this is not your post, then I am mistaken....Sandra
If its meant to be, then so be it.Feel happy, energized, and full of pep when you spring out of bed each day.If you are this way, change nothing, if you are married or not.Moosejay approved

Do you save for retirement or simply live for today?Good question. I have always delegated 50% of my gross income for investments and savings. Inordinately high compared to average, but that's what I do...18 years now.For every guy like your grandfather there are 10 living in nursing homes with no visitors and a bunch of people they cannot stand. That is sad. Life is all that mattersMost? I don't believe that. The average American has little to no savings anyway.Don't believe everything the media tells you. Many do fine...it is all a matter of choice. Drop the trucks and SUV's a 7 dollar latte's , and there is some savings for ya
[/Whore=MonjeySlut=No moneyThat is why marriage is still so popular. REALLY? Marriage=emotional attachment.(nothing wrong with that IMO)Sandra quote]If you are not the originator of this response, I apologize.Sandra
Sandra, are you Sang that a stint in timeout might teach Moosejay not to classify all women as whores or sluts?
I sense a strong hate for women in this thread or at least no respect for them? Is this correct?
too many men are being taken advantage of by wives, hookers, and strippers overcharging for the puss.

Definitions:Whore=Does it for moneySlut=Does not do it for moneySimple definitions say nothing about my character. I have never misogynistically disparaged women here or in any other forum, for that matter.
Dude, I know some do fine as I doing fine myself. But it is fact that most Americans don't save. You need to step out of your bubble and talk to working class people sometime Moosejay. $7 lattes and suv's are not even affordable for most of these people.
In your view, are there any women who don't fall into those 2 categories? Are there any women who are not defined by their sexual activities?We're going to need to see some backpedalling here Moose.
I am in no bubble.They can save. They just don't.Not affordable bc folks are products of their own actions.Solutions toi all of these supposed problems liw within us all.
