You don't know shit about women do you?
Get married, you'll find out.
I've had two women give me the flick because I wanted to stay home over a weekend working on system design rather than see them.
Granted I didn't give them a lot of notice but we had nothing planned much anyway.
Both thought I was having an affair, both couldn't comprehend that my design work was more important than spending time living a domestic life with them over a weekend.
Anyhow, was no loss as I never intended going the distance with either and picking up a new women has never been an issue.
But the bottom line is, often with women it's their way or the highway. I suppose better they do it to me than me do it to them, don't like breaking hearts, whereas mine has become a bit calloused since my wife gave me the flick many years ago in preference for the pastor of our church. I wish her well.

' Exactly none. I don't produce anything, I don't help anyone or anything, or truly contribute anything to society. There is nothing wrong with trading or a long list of professions that have little social value, but don't kid yourself that we matter"
every communist and every socialist + obama would agree with you. my suggestion to you is get an education in the basics of capitalism and the purpose of free markets.
Itâs our job to make money. Whether itâs a commodity, stock, bond, or some hypothetical piece of fake paper, it doesnât matter. We would trade baseball cards if it were profitable. I didnât hear America complaining when the market was roaring to 14,000 and everyoneâs 401k doubled every 3 years. Just like gambling, its not a problem until you lose. Iâve never heard of anyone going to Gamblers Anonymous because they won too much in Vegas.
Well now the market crapped out, & even though it has come back somewhat, the government and the average Joes are still looking for a scapegoat. God knows there has to be one for everything. Well, here we are.
Go ahead and continue to take us down, but youâre only going to hurt yourselves. Whatâs going to happen when we canât find jobs on the Street anymore? Guess what: Weâre going to take yours. We get up at 5am & work till 10pm or later. Weâre used to not getting up to pee when we have a position. We donât take an hour or more for a lunch break. We donât demand a union. We donât retire at 50 with a pension. We eat what we kill, and when the only thing left to eat is on your dinner plates, weâll eat that.
For years teachers and other unionized labor have had us fooled. We were too busy working to notice. Do you really think that we are incapable of teaching 3rd graders and doing landscaping? Weâre going to take your cushy jobs with tenure and 4 months off a year and whine just like you that we are so-o-o-o underpaid for building the youth of America. Say goodbye to your overtime and double time and a half. Iâll be hitting grounders to the high school baseball team for $5k extra a summer, thank you very much.
So now that weâre going to be making $85k a year without upside, Joe Mainstreet is going to have his revenge, right? Wrong! Guess what: weâre going to stop buying the new 80k car, we arenât going to leave the 35 percent tip at our business dinners anymore. No more free rides on our backs. Weâre going to landscape our own back yards, wash our cars with a garden hose in our driveways. Our money was your money. You spent it. When our money dries up, so does yours.
The difference is, you lived off of it, we rejoiced in it. The Obama administration and the Democratic National Committee might get their way and knock us off the top of the pyramid, but itâs really going to hurt like hell for them when our fat a**es land directly on the middle class of America and knock them to the bottom.
We arenât dinosaurs. We are smarter and more vicious than that, and we are going to survive. The question is, now that Obama & his administration are making Joe Mainstreet our food supplyâ¦will he? and will they?â

A somewhat philosophical problem. Take Coke for example, yes they produce something and "contribute" in the traditional economic sense but overall, they're actually making life worse via diabetes and all that energy, pollution from bottling/canning.
Sometimes not being productive is better for society than being productive.
there's actually very good evidence that not all dinasaurs became extinct. Many of them evolved into ostriches.
Next time I go broke, the first thing I am going to do is apply for government assistence. My days of working are over. I have no marketable skills and am too old for manual labor. The only thing I am any good at is trading.
I have three beautiful children, and even though I am divorced, they still think of me as a father. But I consoder the whole thing to have been one great failure. A good father can somehow hold a family together. I guess that's why they say it takes two.
In retrospect, I was probably one of those guys that never really was cut out to be a husband. We should have known that, because when I got married I was just a musician playing in a band.
