Quote from: monsta666 on Jan 31, 2025, 01:18 PMTo be honest I remain single and I don't really have a great desire to partner up. I feel, and this is only a personal feeling, but most women are more trouble than they are worth.
Sounds completely true to me. Which makes the entire exercise of going beyond just collecting a good time girl that much more important. I like the word partner.
Quote from: monsta666Life is what you make it out to be and the ability to lead a fulfilling life largely depends on your mindset and really understanding yourself and your personal desires/ambitions. If you can understand yourself and pursue the things you find important whilst maintaining some sort of social network you can prosper. There is no need for partners although if that is what you desire then go for it. Just be honest on what you want. Don't marry to impress people, conform to social pressure or do it for status. All those reasons are external validations, the desire needs to come from within.Who would ever confuse marriage with trying to impress people, conform or collect status? Sounds almost like a weak mind falling for whatever they've been spoon fed online or by their parents of friend or whatever.
"Yes, I'd like to wreck my life for as long as I stay married in order to impress mom/dad/Facebook crowd because impressing people is the most important! Oh yeah, and lets have some kids to make it better and turn them into little maladjusted shits because I just want them for the Christmas photos each year I send out to family!".
Yeech, the whole idea people are so easily manipulated by trying to impress others makes me cringe.
