Up until a few years ago that was my favorite demographic. Got too expensive and time consuming though so I'm trying my age for a year or two.

I'm from Eastern Europe and speak the language. But beyond that, I didn't say THAT part would be easy, but it's doable, especially if you stay there instead of bringing them to the US. Personally I think it would be easier than keeping the average American 28 yr old happy.

Even worse, the cars are so smart you can't force a lemon law without getting caught.

I had a friend who had two transmission burn up in his new diesel f250 10+ years ago. The second one, they gave him a remanufactured transmission even though the truck was only 1 years old or so. He put on a huge tow hitch, backed up against a huge parking structure wall, and put it in reverse for 30+ minutes until the transmission overheated and melted down.

Got the truck bought back.

Are you denying trends and averages exist?

I'm 38. It's superficially easy to find a 28 year old, and would take a slight bit of effort to get with a 23 year old. And all bets are off if someone is ok going to eastern Europe or Asia. "Lost your chance in life" is retarded.

They did not "choose you". They could not get any of the others to commit.

Dying alone after a happy life is one thing, dying after decades of hell with a bad partner is another, and yet another to pay someone you hate until you die, like many men in California do.

New people aren't allowed to have opinions or take part in discussions?

Believe me, there are many more people that care than the other way around.

I didn't say I had trouble finding a meaningful relationship. I said I'm having trouble finding meaning in dating 38 year old women.

Partially yes, but it's also a sign of their standards. I've personally known many girls that aren't that hard to be with, but are being foolish constantly going after guys that clearly won't commit.

If you doubt that girls are sleeping around in college a lot, idk what to tell you. I guess when the stats come out in a decade or two you'll believe me.

Because I don't want to feel like a fool for sticking with and supporting this woman from 40-70, when she was giving it up easily at 18-30. Luckily I'm tall and decent looking and do fine for myself, but I still have a gut feeling for reality.

Regarding the beauty.. idk what to tell you. Same reason why some people hold onto their first car, or a car they bought new and love it. Or restore old cars. But if you buy an old beat up car, you use it while you can and move on when you feel like it. Nostalgia and memories are important to many people.

I have a feeling not wanting the love of your life to have had sex with many others is pretty engrained in most people. Everyone? No. But I consider what is most common to be close to human nature.

Are we going to deny there was less promiscuity in the past? Just a few years ago the lifetime average partners was 7. Even that was screwed high due to recent trends.

Now most women I know have 7 by the time they leave college.
