Learn to break up BEFORE committing into a seoirus long term relationship after that just suck the lemons.Screen the people you are thinking of dating you might even avoid several forms of sexually transmitted disease.Bottom line for me is I would love to be hooked up in a great relationship but those days of dating anybody for any reason are over. It's just too dangerous not because of the disease but because of the emotional damage. The woman would have to be first certified by me as wanting exactly from the relationship what I want. My last LTR was wanting love and marriage and she and I were both disease and drug free and it still was very rocky. It's a minefield out there. And especially as the guy expected to foot the bill for everything not going down that road again of well let's just give it a shot and see what happens nope nosiree not in this lifetime.Once you hit middle age, I believe most people have a lot of seoirus baggage whether they think so or not and I try to avoid the damaged ones which eliminates an awful lot of people. And there are other factors which are none of your business.After a commitment to marriage or engagement that's it for me there is no turning back. So you better be as damned seoirus about it as I am cause I don't let go. And I do not believe in divorce for any reason except that she physically cheated on me with another guy or I did that to her behind her back. Then I kick em to the curb and don't look back and the feelings evaporate like dew on summer grass.Just sayin'
