I've been going out for longer than 15 years and never grew tired of it.

I was tired of going out partying before I was out of college. Different strokes for different folks.

Exactly, that's why LM assumption makes no sense.

Freedom is never boring. What you do with it can be. You may not agree but people can be entirely single and lived fulfilled lives. The problem is that they don't necessarily utilize it or their lack of resources will inhibit their ability to expand possibilities. I would listen to the song but I HATE country and western. He is implying that single men are just men looking for someone. I think it's safe to say that's the case of the minority. I believe single people just come across their future partners. Then again, I'm one who believes that humans aren't biologically wired to have to have a partner (relationships are overrated in that respect).

Marriage would not benefit you. It certainly benefits my husband.

Eta:
To answer the rep comment, yes I'm sure. My husband has a person who is entirely devoted to him and that's simply not something everybody deserves. You guys get shyte because you give shyte. That's how it typically goes. I am curious why any wo/man on this forum would be too cowardly to leave his anonymous userid. That's pretty goofy.

I was a male ***** during my single days. At first, it was cool, knocking them down. Afterwhile, i grew old, because i wanted love sincerely vs one night stand funk sessions. I finally found "the one." Yes i see attractive women all the time but i have no desire to chase them.

Money is the one and only entity that miss about single life.

Do whatever i want/live with expectatations? I am not trying to be homeless. I dont want to be a bum. I have a legacy to live up to, as do my children. I am able to do what i want as a team, sort of. I have accountability. I have children who rely on me. Doing what i want would very selfish and an example that i would not show to my kids.

Your line of questions sound high schoolish. I wanted to be something. I wanted to be someone. I wanted kids. I wanted to carry my family name. You want a life of no accountability, "f"ing every women...why?

Why would I want accountability? The less responsiblities I have, the better.

All I really want to do is make as much money as possible so that I can travel and sleep with hundreds of attractive women from all around the world. That's it, and if you gave me $5-10 million right now, that's exactly what I'd be doing. Of course, my parents will be expecting at least one grandchild at some point so I'll have to work something out so that we can all be happy.
