What exactly entails a great dating life before 22 years of marriage? Quantity, quality, frequency, variety? What are the factors. Dating varies from person to person. Is someone fundamentally wrong because their dating life doesn't compare to yours or your marriage? That's not fair.

Are you 22 years married within the dot.com age or well before the dot.com age? Monumental difference in dating practice now and then.

I would think that a great dating life is simply one that makes that person happy.

I don't approach ever. I would fail miserably each and every time. So I never have nor will. I know how to speak with women, I have gotten close to women over periods of time where we basically grew on each other or by introduction. The last time this hapoened was about 10 years ago. Unfortunately I ruined those few chances due to an overriding issue.

How can you blame them? Got a better option for them?
If are making an assumption that real life resembles the majority of the posts (complaining whining poor pitiful me) in this forum, you would be making a mistake.

They do not represent the large majority of people.
Nail on head.

They don't "prefer", it's generally not a choice
