I know a guy that has a quarterly trip to Vegas to clear his head. Nice guy, older, completely socially capable, well off. Doesn't want the drama of a full time night woman, would rather rent one that he can pick out trim package on and return to the dealership when he's done.

Avoiding middle aged divorce is critical to financial success and setting yourself up for early retirement to a life of leisure. Gotta give props to a guy that figured out short term rentals are the best move for him

Went on a lights out date a few weeks ago. We pretty much hung out at her place all night. Started out playing games and drinking, some music videos and what not. Then started lighting up some weed and vaping it. Things slowly grew more intense and we finally started doing it. She was a blast to hang out with and treated me like royalty. It didn't work out in the long run but she certainly lit a fire deep in me to get out there.


We get it, you smoke weed

Maybe she dumped you because you set her weed vape pen on fire.

I'm divorced. If I don't get married again, I'm okay with it. It is better than the alternative of settling just to get married again.
Isn't that all marriage is?

No, I definitely didn't.

I don't know what I was expecting here. But it is way worse.

Godspeed to this guy.

I'd be willing to bet that he has a LOT of unresolved childhood trauma.

I would kinda agree, but one thing I learned living overseas and working with so many Euros is this sort of thinking is more common than I ever would have guessed. I was stunned at the number of professionals I worked with who went home and the first thing they did was pay for it. Not even talking about the "go to Thailand" guys. These Brits and Scots and such would go out with their buddies then when the party broke up they'd grab escorts and go their separate ways.

The difference between sex for money and sex for free is, sex for free costs a whole lot more.

Question for the single over 35 and never married ones…. Was there a dude/chick that you should have married and didn't? I find it hard to believe in the 17 years of adult dating people never cross paths with someone of the opposite sex that they are compatible with.


Yes.

I can recall one that stood out back in 2012. Went on one date with her and really wanted to like her. Very solid girl with an outstanding background and good personality. I think she was about my age at the time, 28. I probably should have given her more of a chance than I did, I just didn't feel like we hit it off or really had a connection. Again though, she was definitely an all around fine individual indeed.

You aren't paying for the deed. You're paying for them not to call you once the deed has been done.

Because anyone worth a **** already got married and stayed married. Over 35 singles are basically the damaged goods bin.

A date in the dark, save for the romantic glow of 2 weed pens, like fireflies searching for each other in the darkness
