That is exactly my goal, but may retire early at another location.

I have zero desire to get married or settle down. Sex is widely available without commitment. I have a gym routine, zero money problems, hobbies, BT Sport, foreign travel, books, peace, time to teach myself about astronomy and all the cash I earn is mine, all mine! Every single penny!

Can the married man also say the exact same thing with confidence that his wife will not divorce him later down the line? Statistics prove that women initiate divorce the majority of the time and have the upper hand in family court. The risks of marriage outweigh the pros in my honest opinion.

I take it you've decided kids are not for you? No shame in that, just as long as you figure it out before it's too late.
Yes, I am snipped and I get myself checked out every year to be sure that I am shooting blanks. I don't share this information with any of the women I sleep with though. I have lost count how many times women have tried to "trap" me into a relationship by claiming that they are bearing my children. The look on their faces when they see my papers of being sterile is priceless.
Whoa, Where are you meeting these women?

Is MKSixer married now? Is that why I haven't seen him in a while?

He's just busy. He said he'll be back soon.

It really is easy. But I didn't get no stinking magazine or earbuds. So that sucks.

I had to listen instead to all the clamping noises and tugs down there, the noises were the worst part of the whole procedure which is saying a lot, because really, its a breeze.

Interestingly, I could smell (albeit it very briefly) the smell when they cauterized the upper tubes. Not exactly BBQ, but not completely opposite side of the spectrum either which was a little disturbing.

Interestingly, I had exactly the same experience! (I have four kids so, that was enough for me). The tugging and pulling during the procedure was a little disconcerting as I was wincing while waiting for a sharp pain. But, to my surprise (and relief) that never came!

But the burning smell was a real surprise... Was definitely not expecting that!

The exact same thing can be said about marriage and family court.

The dumpster fire known as online dating apps of course. I feel bad for all of those guys who "found" their wife on there..

I've had it done. Bottled it the first time as I read and heard all the horror stories. Was bricking it when I went to have it done, but it was an absolute breeze.
I think most problems occur when people don't follow the rules and try and get back to normal too quickly. I literally did nothing when I got home and parked myself on the sofa for a couple of days and then gently worked back to normality. Good supportive underwear helps a lot. It really is no big deal - just follow the advice from your doctor.

I've thought about this as well. It makes me cringe. Also makes me appreciate that my girlfriend has never been on a dating app. Phew...

I've met quite a few women on dating apps, not all were crazy. Most are the same people you meet at the gym, work, bar, through friends, etc, just a different way of meeting them. It would be silly to think a woman hasn't been with a bunch of guys because she has never been on an app.

As much as online dating is a shit show, I'd be severely limited by trying to meet people otherwise. This is due to my demanding job and all the time I spend doing other things, not to mention the limited pool of potential women I would have. Like anything else, it's a tool that only benefits you if used correctly.

If I can’t/couldn’t charm someone in person I don’t want that work. There is correlation between offline and online profile, but most valuable human interaction requires verbal AND non verbal communication in the flesh. Not calculated responses.

If you feel so inclined, raise a toast to my ex-gf - she passed away today. This is the same friend who had the massive brain tumor removed 8 months ago - just when she finally finished physical therapy and was getting back to life something happened - we don't know what yet.

This response will require some wordsmithing and thought. I want to reply in a very transparent/blunt manner, but I also would like my honesty not to get me in hot water. Let me think about this and I'll come back.
