Haven't people been tinder fucking all pandemic long?
yeah, but Capps doesn't want a floozy, he's looking for a girl to marry and have children with

he's not into the hook up culture, he wants the real deal

but the problem is, you don't get to the relationship until you are fucking first
Uhhhhh ... someone might want to tell him marrying the first girl you hook up with inevitably leads to "what did I miss" syndrome ... which later leads to divorce.
Everyone has to find their own path, but there's something to be said for maybe dating a few floozy's before settling down.

Or not. Man.
Whatever.

this is what I tell him, but he's got the Millennial disease, the perfect is the enemy of the good with Millennials

it's like I did fall in love with my wife at first sight

but she was the only one, out of dozens of girlfriends, it took me a decade of dating to find my wife

it's like at first I did think Shanda was going to be my wife

she was spectacular, Katy Perry swimsuit model, country girl next door

but when I started living with her, then I found out that we were not compatible

it was two type A's in the same house, so we fought all the time, then had make up sex after

that's great in a girlfriend, but it wasn't a foundation for a marriage,

I just realized I was not in love with her

whereas with my wife, we can't even bear to be parted, that's when you know it's love

But you have a point of reference for comparison.
If you just married your wife right out of the gate, and THEN Katy Perry Swimsuit model came along, and you had no other experience to reference - THAT'S where trouble begins.
At least, for the divorced people I know who lived through some variation of that experience.

exactly, I mean, I went on an epic chick bender after me & Shanda broke up

Julia, Trudie, Dawn, Danielle, Helena, Maude, and a slew of one night stands

then Jodi was there accross the room, at the Windsor on St Paddy's Day 2000, and it was love at first blush

I lived life in the fast lane, I had beautiful girls at my beck and call

but Jodi Erin was the most beautiful of them all, she stopped me in my tracks

I walked across the bar, and we just hit it off, right from the start

I didn't ask her for a date, I asked her to be my girl for life, on the spot, and she said yes

in German, my wife's name means "Praised Ireland"

a gift from God, divine intervention

that's another thing about Capps

he respects my wife, he worships the ground she walks on

it's not hard to be a friend to that

THE PROPER ENGLISH GENTLEMAN

He's a proper English Gentleman who never spills his beer.
He dines with all the ladies and never shows his fear
Of picking up the wrong fork or swearing at the soup
When it's hot enough to burn him, or jumping through the hoop
Of English Society, and all it represents.

But he's a damned good soldier in front of all the troops
And marches like a gentleman in his fine leather boots
And eats in the reg'lar mess and calls the men by name
And shares the dirty work with 'em, what's called the killing game
Of English Imperialism and all it represents.

But by his own hearthside he's a different sort
And he beats his tenants quarterly and no one dares retort,
He takes their wives and daughters, and never stops to think
That a man might someday shoot him when he's had enough to drink!
Of English duplicity, and all it represents.

He's the finest of examples, and there's others of his kind
Who keep their secrets closely and never seem to mind
That the man who sits at table and has their deepest trust
Might carry in his bosom the foulest kind of lust,
Not English respectability, and all it represents.

So watch you step, my laddies, keep your distance, ladies dear,
Watch out for English gentlemen and don't ever let them near.
Their faces won't betray them, their deeds are fine and true,
But put them near temptation and it really will not do --
For certain English gentlemen and all they represent.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

oh yes, Jodi Erin knows you are a scoundrel

none the less, she just wants you to find a good woman to take care of you

she thinks you have a good heart,

she doesn't think you should waste that on the sheep on the farm, they have no internal life
