Totally true. The interesting thing is how the amount of drama one wants/is willing to tolerate changes as one goes through life. Some gals that were a whole lot of fun in college and shortly after would get a brief smile as they were guided directly to the door these days.

These days sandwich making skills are more important than the perfect figure.

A few years ago me and my girlfriend split up for a year or so. At that point we had been together for about 12 years.
It was the usual split, and we started dating other people. I totally ago with what slosig posted.
The whole dating scene was painful, and I had a few first dates but no second dates. The stuff I was able to tolerate and overlook in the past (if the girl was hot) drove me insane and I could not wait for the dates to end.
If we break up again, I am getting a goldfish. I am less tolerant now than I was 8 eight years ago so I cannot imagine dating again.

Eight years ago? Ha! I was already less tolerant twenty seven years ago, when I got back together with the woman who would become my wife. If I lose her, for whatever reason, it's gonna be just me and the cats.
Yes, I guess I'll be the neighbourhood "crazy old cat guy."

Somehow you make me want to wait 6 months and post it again.

The words "foolproof and "female" are rarely used in the same sentence. There are many reasons for this.

My wife and I both thought it was hilarious back when we first saw it. For Halloween one year I wore a t-shirt with the hot/crazy matrix on it. She rightfully dressed up as a unicorn.
My solution to finding a wife was to join the army at 17, to go to Germany. Travel 60 miles from my base to a very small village.
Met her the first night I was in that little village.
Been married to her for 60 years. Never looked back.
