It does work for some people. It goes back to that thing where people assume that because something doesn't work for them, it wouldn't work for others. (not trying to target you)

In general I don't care about anyone else unless I know them. It's not worth your mental or emotional energy to care about people you don't even know. It's not that I wish death upon most people, but I'm not going to shed a tear if they die. The world is overcrowded anyway. Likewise if someone doesn't even know me, I don't expect them to care about me, that's just absurd. I care about my friends and family and wish them the best. That's about it. Beyond that who cares? It's silly and ridiculous that you can care about EVERYONE. And frankly the more I know a lot of people the more I think they're just taking up space and oxygen.

You'd better care about me.

I care about artsy, I appreciate his snarky remarks and comments, they are funny to me.

I'm not coming out, though, sorry artsy. As much as I think girls are hard to tolerate, they are still sexy as hell and unfortunately my biology is rigged to like them. It's a cruel twist of fate but that's how it goes. haha

I am single because breakups are very difficult for me to go through. My marriage ended 17 years ago and I have dated occasionally but going through a divorce brought up emotions never felt before in my life. One was being cheated on. Prolly one of the worst feelings ever. I am happy being alone now. Should I find someone that gives as much as I do in a relationship, I would get married. When I go to bars, which is a couple of times a year now, I go for the music. Since my divorce I am a firm believer that nothing is forever. Your relationship can be perfect one day and the next you'll be wondering why your girlfriend, boyfriend or spouse is acting different.

Sad story, but has some truth to it.

Everything does end. Whether by divorce, break-up, or death. We will lose everyone we are ever with.

Yikes, we're all so optimistic tonight... Turned out I've got a female excuse for the slip. What's yours?

I'm somewhat picky in the kind of women I want to date and I've heard from some women that I kind of intimidate them.
The local lesbian scene is not all that hot...and it seems like I am the really mature 18 year old surrounded by all these 21+ women who don't really have their sh*t together.

I also live in Arkansas so...that kind of explains a lot.

In any case, I'm talking to someone new right now but I'm not getting my hopes up or anything.
If it happens...it happens.
