You know who you are...

Please allow me a quick rant. Not often that I do this...especially not on this forum, but today was a "day". Alarm clock went off at 4am and I got back home at 8pm. No one there to greet me at the door...no food on the table...no kids to play with.

So for all you guys out there that take for granted a woman that is there when you get home (usually after a hard day of work herself), children that want to hear about your day, need help with their homework or a bedtime story read to them, and food on the table that you didn't have to cook(I don't care what it tastes like)....You can kiss my timeclock punchin, lunchbox carryin, bluecollar, big, hairy powerlifting ass...

so I assume this post was written before the project moved in.

I usually come home to two screaming cats that won't stop trying to lead me to their food dish which is always full. I don't get this.

..same here..and you can't change the food w/o going through a period where they regurgitate half their meals

For the life of me, I will never understand this obsessive desire to be in a relationship. It's so prevelant in our society -- get married, have kids, and PRESTO -- all your problems will be solved and you'll be happy.

What garbage.

I come home to an empty house, and I LOVE it. I fucking love it! I have complete freedom with my time -- I have no responsabilites to anyone other then myself.

I look at my friends who've gotten married or (ick!) procreated, and I honestly feel sorry for them. They don't seem paticularly happy to me, that's for sure.

Here's a qestion for you relationship junkies -- if you're not happy with yourselves now, what makes you think you'll be happy with someone else?

There's a reason the divorce rate is as high as it is, ya know?

AMEN BROTHER !!...I LOVE living on my own, wouldn't want to have it any other way. Enjoy the privacy, peace of mind,bring the occassional date over ;-)

I know what you're talking about Hannibal. My married friends used to tell me how I had it made, with my motorcycle and my car. How I didn't have to worry about when I came home or where I went. They didn't think about coming home to an empty house every night, while they went home to their wife and kids. They will never know how good they have it.

..thats one of the reasons i prfer to have a roommate..someone to shoot the shit with and watch a movie..plus the cooking chores can be split..its easier to cook for two...my current roommate is only home M-Thur and returns to atlanta on the weekends..really cool as during the week I've got company and then the weekends are mine and I can bring a gal over and have the house to myself..omelettes in nighties

Ok, there's no PRESTO, you're happy. It's just a different kind of happiness that comes from sharing your life with someone. Sure, it'll be rocky at times, but that doesn't mean you won't be happy. And yes, some people do need someone else in order to be happy. I know people who are much better with someone than without.

Secondly, sure you have freedom and sure, you have no responsibilities to anyone else. But you're not a kid anymore. When you hit a certain age (say maybe 26), you need to start thinking about more than how much fun you're having. Sometimes, it's just time to think about more than yourself.

One day, you're going to meet the one woman that will change your mind, and you're going to say "Damn, why didn't I do this sooner?"

No, this is no flame....just my 2 cents which you get a lot anyway.

Why at that certain age (26 to be exact lol) should you be thinking about more than just having fun? Life should be just that..having fun
And nothing is guaranteed in life my dear...I'm 35 and the right woman hasn't come along yet,may never happen,but I'm not holding my breath, nor looking to get married(not a goal of mine) But I have been in a number of relationships. I just think people 'settle' for whatever they can get...

I chose 26 because that is his age. And who says that being married or in a serious relationship can't be fun? Ask Kronk and Lil K or any of the other couples on here if life is not fun for them? Guess the answer you'll get. And just because the right woman hasn't come along yet, doesn't mean she won't. Hell, I'm not holding my breath for the right guy either. Blue is a wonderful color on me, but I'll pass. It's not a matter of settling. It's a matter of keeping your options open.

What I meant was the ones who are married or in committed relationships 'settle'. I'm all for keeping options open.

I'm glad you are. But I don't think those people are settling. It's what they want to do. They are not necessarily saying well, this is all there is or what it all boils down to. It's what they want to do. I plan on doing that one day myself, and I can honestly say I don't think I'll be settling. I'll be getting exactly what I want.
