My ex showed up, the last time I saw her, to warn me that the Russians were about to invade the US and I should take precautions.  
Is she an NHL Fan?

All of these horror stories/sob stories make me feel fortunate. 
Marrying/living with someone has never appealed to me.  I'd love to have a wife for about 2 days a week.  That's not gonna fly, so I've avoided all that.  I've only dabbled in the fun first 4 months of a relationship, then let things fizzle and move on.

All the good, none of the bad.  

Similarly, my love of children influenced my career, not personal life.  I have no desire to have my own kids because I work with them every day....and get to send them home.  One thing online teaching has revealed is how hectic/loud my students' homes are.  And I assume that's pretty normal.  I get to come home to a quiet apartment just how I left it, everyday.  Any messes are my messes.  I leave it messy for an hour or a week - and it only affects me.  One thing I really hated about longer relationships has been my behaviors affecting someone I love in a negative way.  I love-love-love that my faults or failures or laziness or shortcomings don't affect anyone as a single guy.  

Any women I have spent quality time with in the past, I still have a net plus relationship with.  One even spent a week in FL with me a few years after we broke up.  She was a good one.  If I had to get married, it'd be to her.

My wife is my partner in everything (except work) and she's my best friend. I wouldn't have it any other way.

Just celebrated our 24th.

Hopefully can live to celebrate 50.

No, just really in bad shape mentally.

I get mail addressed to her here occasionally, the outside looks like folks wanting her to pay up, I don't open, just resend address unknown.

You can date a girl for a while and live with her, but when you get married, it changes.

If you have kids, it really changes.  A lot.

Some fine advice from a family member when I moved cross country for my first full-time job.

With a tax rate of 51.4% of GDP, Swedes are one of the most highly taxed populations in the world. Ironically, they are generally happy to pay a high tax rate, and the Swedish word for tax is skatt, or “treasure.”
