That's why I never married... :-) I didn't want to be put in that sort of anomalous situation. I also do not believe in diamonds, which are valueless to me, nor do I believe in clubs. I believe in hearts.

I enjoy my freedom. Here's hoping you enjoy yours too. I haven't met one single woman yet who managed to avoid the almost irresistible social pressures to either "marry or become an old maid". What a crock. I did know one who held out till she was in her middle 30's, but she finally cracked. She was a very neat person...haven't seen her in years now, but I wish her all good things.

You don't need someone else beside you to be a whole person. Nor will the avoidance of marriage cause your life to be loveless. Quite the contrary. If you want love, just love others and it will come back to you sevenfold.

One trouble with monogamous relationships is that people try to squeeze too much of their love into just that one relationship, to the detriment of the rest of their life. You see how isolated they can get when they do that...

And no, I am not talking about sex here. I'm talking about love.
