marriage is a commitment and it's good for both my sons and daughters, should we have them, to understand that if you're going to start a family, then you do so with commitment.

that's probably my main motivation...

but, that whole family thing...not sure i want it anymore. too much work.

I was JUST looking online at buying a new pan. It is such a good deal, I can't not buy it. But if I never looked in the first place, I wouldn't be spending any money at all.

So confusing..... cow, milk, buy, free, rent.....

For MEN only: Why buy the cow...?

For WOMEN only: Why buy the pig when you can get the pork for free?


Since we are talking farm animals, what's good for the goose . . .

Negativity is such a "lovely" thing.

*shaking my head*

Not True! If a man cheats he could face a costly divorce + alimony + random kids (if there is no birth control).

If a women cheats she could face the first two, but that usually does not happen. Also, birth control=no kids=no problem.

Some men want to get married. Some men want to have children. If you don't - that's fine, too.

Get married and deal with a moody/nagging wife who even constantly drop hints until she dumps you and left single while losing lots of $$$. The other scenario is get married and have to deal with with a moody/nagging wife who even constantly drop hints whilst forever forgoing getting hot 18, 19, and 20 year olds.

You sound like a wonderful man. I'm sure that 18 year olds will be crawling after you when you are well into your 70's. Keep living the dream, man!
