What happened

[Smitty-48]

I did for a little while, but I’ve pretty much given up on women. Far more trouble than they’re worth, tbh.

not when you find your soulmate

I dated more girls than I can even remember now, I only fell madly in love with one

thus why I pray for you, because in your case finding true love will require a miracle

soulmate is like a utopia. Yeah, we think that shit but have you ever asked your wife if she could fall in love with another? Sobering.

I am not saying that everything is false but I am saying that nothing is set in stone.

I have asked my wife that, she says she will never take another man

she says she doesn't believe we will be together on the otherside, because she doesn't believe in that

but she says she knows I believe that, so she will honour the marriage unto death

she says she will be a widow after I am gone, she is past needing a lover other than me

[StCapps]

Fair enough.

I don't know what the fuck Capps is talking about. I think he is way over his skis. All hopped up on some Youth adrenochrome. Dial it back already. Never had it, not yet did it. Always the fuckers that have nothing to tell those who have something on how they should have done it.

doing what he is doing

is working out just great

whatever he does

he shouldn't change up

Haumana is right, dial it back

Grumpy heard you the first time, no need to belabor

I've said my piece on it

I think he read what I said

I don't think he comprehended the message at all

you can lead a horse to water

but you can't make it drink

hope he finds something better than the status quo

dialing back

[Smitty-48]

dialing back

that's all you had to say

I'm not coming down on you, but when Haumana is right he is right

Anyway, I’ve fallen in love. And kept falling straight into hell. Not interested in doing that again. That lesson kept me out of a few other bear traps through the years.

The negative experiences with women have far outweighed the positive ones, over the span of my life. Even mom and stepmom have failed me pretty spectacularly. I have no use for women, in general. They weaken and destroy far more often than they build up.

I’m actually somewhat content just being with my boys and watching the days go on for now. Don’t fight what won’t change. Accept the positives.

Not take another man, per se. Because I think that means sex, as a dude, and as the rest of your post indicated that you agree.

I am talking about companionship, could/would they find another to walk the path of life with them in that prime position of being the One who holds their hand. I am married 25 years, dedicated for 27. This is a 10+ year answer and I think times have change but the crux hasn't. Stakes and hurdles have gone up but the point... I don't think so. Transitory. HAHAHAHA You got to keep your shit together fellas cuz chicks are fickle like that.

Is this the second blue moon?

I know my wife, she will just live for her dogs, she's a crazy dog momma

my wife is very independent, she's not social outside of her family

she doesn't need a man, she just fell madly in love with me

after I am gone, she will just miss me terribly, no man could take my place, she said so, and she never lies

[Smitty-48]

my wife has one lifelong friend

they are inseparable, they have been together since childhood

when my wife is not with me, she is with her lady in waiting

I call them the Ladies Who Lunch

that woman will be my wife's companion after I am gone, I know

[Smitty-48]

this is why I live fast to die hard, why I don't care about smoking

I do not want to live without my wife

if she went first, I would just kill myself to be with her

so I am working on making sure I die first

I have no desire to be very old, I don't want to be a feeble old man in any case

don't know what you mean

you were right, I call it as I see it
