If this one doesn't work, I'm done. I'll stay single and get laid when I can.

Good question


One thing I've noticed or thought about as it pertains to this ....as I've gotten older I'm 47 .. the coolest chicks I've ever known/met over past 20-30 yrs were the ones that smoked pot.

By far.

Im not saying i value smoking weed the most I'm saying they were the easiest going. Which I suppose is what I value.
Peace and non drama.

I have no concept of that in my current spot.

Same values as me. Married 44 years this year. I hit a home run and married my much better half.

Most underrated post in this thread, and that kind of woman doesn’t exist.

I’ve said it before, I’ve moved around a lot and maybe have met a couple dozen of these women.

There aren’t many, some of you younger lads have met one but don’t know it yet. A lot of ladies will want to lay claim to being like this but they are lying. It’s very rare.


Amen, my friend.

Looks, but looks are really a pass/fail test. If she passes it doesn’t really matter at that point by how far she clears the bar. What matters after that:

1. Is she a snob?
2. Does she laugh?
3. Can she cook?
4. Is she kind?

Would've probably pressed a little more on ambitions. Nothing like being in a marriage where the wife just goes to work and comes home and expects you to be the entertainment.

I'd search for my wife, again.

Find someone you would die for and who would die for you.

Well hell, maybe an Asian? One word of caution, they don't necessarily see sex as an intimate, special act between two people who love each other. It's more of an act or activity to them, so they may stray.

We don't really anymore either. That wasn't always the case but we get in an argument maybe once every few years at this point.

Yeah we kinda figured each other out and things that once were big issues are now generally worked around.

I try to be at peace as much as possible with those that matter to me.
