No 911 calls willy-nilly!

While it would be difficult to imagine anyone going into a marriage with the intention of it being temporary, there appears to be scientific proof that divorce can be good for you in many ways

That’s the conclusion of a psychologist with the University of California Santa Barbara who is spreading the word throughout the nation that single people are indeed happier overall than their married counterparts.
In an 18-minute TED Talk she presented last year, the psychologist explained that in spite of being bombarded by movies, love songs, and novels that “everyone wants to find that special someone,” many married people do not become happier or healthier psychologically than they were previously.
In fact, the psychologist maintains that more and more people are opting for the single life, and are thriving.

One study found that single people utilized their social networks more, and actually provided and received help from their friends much more than their married counterparts.

Singles are more fit.
It’s not only the minds of single people that tend to be stronger. There’s other scientific research to show that single people also tend to be more physically fit. In the study of nearly 4,500 people, those who were single had slightly lower body mass indexes and were, on average, 5 pounds lighter than married people.

Stronger minds.
Another strong benefit to the single life is the availability of alone time, which has proven to be important for increasing our overall sense of freedom as well as our creativity and levels of intimacy.

So, my single friends, it may be time to quit whining about being "all alone" and go out there and enjoy your single life with other singles like yourselves.

Cheers!

Social media is only a reflection of what's out there in the real world.
I know, scary huh?

Bill "Slick Willie" Clinton and Monica "BJ" Lewinsky.
I rest my case.

If it is totally beneficial for me to hold my tongue, like, I'm waiting for some kind of payoff or whatever is said to me can be used later in a counter argument or in a court of law, yes, I can be as silent as a tomb.
If I don't see any payoff in holding my tongue then I will let you have it in a lashing you would not soon forget and if I see that displeases you and you start puffing up then all civil manner goes out the window and you better be prepared to throw down.

Welcome to Mingle2, RickW81

Yet YOU are on dating site.

Not thinking much about it ( waste of time )
I'm just watching YouTube vids about it, eating popcorn, drinking cola and witnessing a world gone completely nuts.
Some people are asking " How did we ever get to this?"
Same people who, thirty years ago, called people like me crazy and prefered to bury their head in the sand instead of listening to reason.
This Texas thing is just another symptom of a sick demented world. This week it's Texas and next week will be somewhere else.
I'm gonna need a lot more popcorn.

So you're an advertiser for YouTube now? Okay...
I hope you get paid though.

Tell the judge that and make sure you insist, see where that gets you

It's a nice profile.
Put another picture of yourself where you don't hold the phone. Ask someone to take a pic of you.
Good luck, buddy.

Don't search.
If a woman is really interested she'll contact you. Meanwhile enjoy being single. There's more to life than grovelling on your knees for a woman.
Buy yourself a huge can of self-esteem and a tall glass of balls, for Pete's sake!

It isn't "bad" but it isn't good for you either.
You're only complicating your life by wanting an older woman. Life is already complicated as it is as to want to take on more needless complications.
And consider this. An older woman who would accept you, as young as you are, as a companion/lover must already have serious psychological issues to deal with and wanting to go out with someone who can be her son may only be the tip of her skewed psychology and values.
Those who say "Age is just a number" wouldn't consider dating someone much much older or younger than themselves. They just don't care what you do with your life and prefer to give you platitudes than an answer born out of reason and decency. Don't listen to them, they are full of it.
Examine your own reasons for wanting to go out with an older woman and talk to your father, brother, sister about it. If you don't want to talk about it to your family then it's proof that deep down inside you know that sort of thing isn't to be seriously considered.
On the other hand, it's your life and you can waste it anywhich way you like.
Good luck to you, young man.

You're welcome

That's your inJustice System in action.
Politicized procecutors.
Overzealous judges.
Sold-out lawyers.
Corrupted cops.
It all equals to innocent people in prisons and the guilty ones roaming our streets.

Thank you, but I'm not into men.

Thank you for the thread and thanks Mingle2 for allowing me to post and state my opinion.

I don't want to go into a useless and endless debate.
That was my opinion and I'm sticking with it come rain or high water.
