So I found myself thinking about this the past few days as I continue to get pressure from my brother and sister in law about settling down. Not so much about myself, as I'm perfect , but rather the women I've dated the past 6 or 7 years. I went through them one by one and asked myself what would each girl bring to the table in a long term relationship? It seems like the same scenario time and time again. Maybe its the women I've associated myself with, but debt and mental instability came up repeatedly. And kids too, most women my age have a couple kids. Most of my friends refer to these women as DG (damaged goods), but personally I don't mind rug rats as long as mom can keep them under control. Am I suppose to be looking for anything in particular here? Is it wrong to view this in dollars and cents? Society tells us men to be good providers, which I can do, but when I'm brought up to see things in business terms its hard to want to adopt a bunch of dept I had nothing to do with. Where is the benefit to finding someone longterm? The only things I can see myself needing are better eating habits and a cleaner house. There are areas in my house I haven't dusted since '04. I just swept the kitchen and hardwoods yesterday and found some interesting things hiding in corners and behind appliances. And my eating habits, those seems to be worse when I am dating. Is it just me or when you guys date are you taking her out to restaurants 3-4 times a week? Do women even know how to cook now days, or is it just not as important as it use to be? Do you women ever ask yourself, "why would I make a good wife?" (no hate)
As for the rest of you, what the hell do you bring to the table? What makes you a good choice as a mate?
