We just celebrated our 29th anniversary in Aruba. It will be hard to top that next year for #30, but we're talking about a trip to Italy.

Congrats  :cheers:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Never been in love. Never dated someone where I've felt that feeling, that yearning to spend the rest of my life with them.

But that's just me. I like to come and go as I wish. If I wanna travel, I do. If I wanna stay out til 6am, I do.

^ Falling in love does not restrict you from doing what you want. Marriage does. You can fall in love without getting married. My neighbor Nola when I lived in Marcelluss, MI was married. Back in 1986.  I never dated her. But she was my best friend, and I loved her.
But if you love someone hard enough- you don't want to run around. Life gets lonesome.
I'd rather be in love than running around in circles at 6 in the morning. And trust me- I have.

This is true. I've dated a lot. But even then, it was like I was lonelier being with someone. We just never clicked in that way. Not their fault, mine I'd guess. Now I just don't date. Not particularly lonely. I dunno.

^ You seem very shy. Not a bad thing. And have gotten used to being alone. And like it that way.
It's alright, man. I was like that many times in my life.
I didn't get that way because I was shy. I was angry and isolated. I became agoraphobic, in fact. I didn't want to leave my house. I thought I was losing my mind. Moving to NYC helped me break out- because I had to. I HATED being isolated.

I was very shy, in my shell. I've come out of it a bit lately, but the few relationships I did have were very bad at the end. So I just date, casually.

There's a big social scene here and lots of after hours places and 24-hour diners and delis so it's easier to not get too settled in. Even if I go out alone, I end up at a diner with someone and we go home together and keep it at casual.

^I was a little different. I went to bars. Not to meet girls. Just to get f**ked up drunk and high. I met Tara because she was my neighbor. I met Tiana because she was my neighbor. My first wife was an ugly b***h  who I met in a bar and f**ked and got pregnant. I hate her. She is a murderer. Not really wives- any. I have never- and will never- get married. I don't need a piece of paper or a ceramony to be in love.
