Can't imagine I'd be happy with any other woman - I don't care to put in the time to craft any new relationships. And I can't imagine any other woman would really want to put up with my shit the way my wife does. So that seals it for me.
I'll stick with the one I've got. We get along just fine...a few rough patches here and there but we understand each other, support each other, trust each other, are loyal to each other, and have each other's back...the way good friends do. And we're not unhappy together...I think if you can find something that doesn't make you unhappy, you should probably hang on to it for dear life.
Is it all romance and crazy wild sexy nights like all you single get big billionaires? Nope. But I like having my best friend around, and for better or worse, she's my best friend. When I'm old and decrepit and broken, she'll be there. I won't have anyone else, but she'll be there when I die so I don't have to die alone. I won't have to grow old alone, wondering if anyone cares if I come or go. At least she'll be there to remind me that someone does give a shit if I live or die. Some of you stronger guys on here don't feel you need that support or moral compass...I'm not ashamed to admit that I do. I don't think it makes me weak either...just different.
And if she dies before me, then I plan on being her rock when she passes on to at least ease some of her worries...she's my best friend, and best friends are there for each other no matter what.
I could care less about having some new girl every night. I like to think sex with random girls, and the baggage that comes with it, gets pretty old and tiresome. The emptiness of it, at times, would really depress me.
I'd be lying if I said I didn't find other women attractive. I'd be lying if I said I don't try to make myself attractive to random women or don't seek their validation or attention (I certainly do; as much as I fail at it, I'm still a man, weak in the flesh, with an ego that needs the boost that only a random woman's glance can give a man); but I never stray...never have and never will. Don't even get close to it. My wife laughs about how clueless I am about how other women view me. But I will never stray; I know what I'll lose...too much.
I prefer things I can trust and depend on. Same goes for the people in my life.
It's not for everyone. Plenty of guys would rather set themselves on fire than live the way I do. I get that and if you feel that way, marriage is a really bad idea...really bad. But for guys like me (however few of us there are), it works just fine and I don't plan on changing it or messing with it. Just going to hang on to it until I die. And I feel pretty sure, right now, that doing so will allow me to die happy.
