Something that years of introspection and dating exhaustion has forced me to realize, and something everyone should ask themselves, in my opinion, given the huge changes in the dating realm 😅:
Do you want to have your standard traditional family, only a child, or both? Figuring out the answer to this can take alotta pressure off people when dating.
Lol. As ironic as it may sound, being a single parent made me realize that I only want a child. Dating a single mum is rather pleasant in this regard because we both want the same thing. We're both financially stable, but most of our time needs to be spent caring for our own little lass! So, we both date just for companionship, really. 🤷♂️ LOL. No pressure.
Do ya mind if I ask you a personal question?
Lol! 😅 They don't seem all too interested in that alot of the time. And I can tell that they're just acting 🎬 much of the time when they do seem "interested". But, I also have really bad history when it comes to dating. I ain't goin' into that 😅😏! Sorry! To be frank, I just have bad taste in women... 🤷♂️ There's a reason why I'm a SINGLE dad.
Lol! 🤣 I wasn't trying to suggest that all women are like that! I know they're not.
Generational wealth... 🤷♂️ LOL! Plenty of downsides come with havin' it! 😅 Like creating a tendency to attract very shallow women.
Thongs are changing quite drastically. That's true. 😔 People can't keep up with the rapid acceleration of living costs anymore, so alotta lads have been losing interest in having families and finding a cozy place to live in with another mate.
If it makes ya feel any better, my daughter was born right before my 33rd birthday and a few months after her mum's 30th. So... you still have time.
Also, yes it is amazing. Not as mentally demanding as dating young, single women who have completely unrealistic standards and who only care about money.
Listen here, mate! I'm gonna be as blunt as possible about this and then I need to be on my way. Busy day ahead! A few vital truths that I've learned throughout my life:
1. Social media is terrible. Didn't take long for me to realize this. Even as a veteran, I'm a tad bit concerned over the amount of hostility and sullenness I've witnessed from people.
2. Money isn't real. Neither is inflation and deflation and all of the Keynesian rubbish that we've been taught throughout our lifetime. My grandad and my old man taught me this. All currencies expire in due time.
3. Spend your life collecting assets, not money.
I'm kind of hoping social media eventually dies out in general. To be frank, I've been pondering leaving Nostr for good recently. It being my first time using social media, instinctually it just feels like a net negative experience. There's an inherently massive undertone of sadness among it's users. 😔
😑🙄😮💨... money ain't real. Neither is economic inflation or deflation. Anyone with any sense will know what I mean.
Men who complain that women who are "rejecting abuse & control is them being 'too picky'" are men who just possess an overabundance of insecurity. That only looks bad on them. But, women have faults too. Much of the time I've noticed that women place too high of a significance on money. Quality men don't always possess wealth. Many of them tend to be abusive and extremely degrading towards women.
I was never in denial about that. I've heard the nightmare stories. I was speaking from a strictly objective viewpoint. And Amazon has been quite brilliant with the implementation of their business model.
1. Top-notch customer service
2. An extraordinarily broad array of services
3. Well-placed warehouses over a global region
4. Near perfect trade and delivery routes
5. Many employees
Like I said: 'no empire lasts forever'
Even Bezos said this in a past interview.
... and yes. I agree. It is far too easy to get a woman pregnant. Lol! Trust me, I know!
Yes, but that's only part of the equation. The unfathomably high dating standards that many people nowadays adhere to are a huge factor as well. Many men seem to have very low standards when it comes to dating, while many women seem to have set their standards too high. It's not really any gender's fault. Financial and economic conditions have also played a huge role in the creation of such limitations on reproduction.
As someone who has been hodling for nearly a decade, I must say that bitcoin has been nothing short of miraculous when it comes to personal savings.
The foundational ideas behind Amazon's business model is, no doubt, revolutionary to retail, but no empire lasts forever. I can't help but wonder how much steam they have left. I imagine quite a bit.
Here's something that'll give ya a laugh: recently looked at the U.K. and U.S. debt clock. How on earth can Americans truly believe that the dollar is worth anything, let alone have less than a 5% inflation rate behind it, when there is well over $200 trillion in unfunded liabilities?! 😑😑😑
The incompetence of political, institutional, and corporate leaders becomes more apparent by the day.
Have my own copy sittin' in my library. Great read! 👍
