And I am perfectly content if I never get married. At the present moment I am single but enjoy meeting new women; which I do some of the times when I go out.
I am not some kind of a playboy or anything like that, but I am able to get my share of some lovin. What's nice at this age is: Woman are often times just as aggressive as we men are. And just as long as you don't say something stupid, or go on and on about yourself, you're IN..
As far as I am concerned about this subject is: I have dated many very nice gals --some for a few years-- but haven't met one yet where we would both agree to settle down.
IF I were to meet someone I'd like to settle down with, I think I'd prefer not actually getting legally married. Either just making our vows to each other or, at the most, having some none legal ceremony.
I just don't like the idea that the "government" thinks it has to issue a "license" for me and a mate to get married. Who are they? They mean nothing to me in that respect.
