I take it most everyone knows it is important to have something going in life for yourself, outside of a partner and/or relationship. So your own friends, hobbies etc.

I'm wondering,
- do you have a life of your own, things you love to do & friends AND
- will you keep doing those things or do you tend to drop them as soon as you've found a partner?
.

Im pretty boring and have no life now, it will be the same with someone, but at least we could just sit and stare at each other all day. :P
Me and my missus can't stare at each other for 30 seconds without one of us cracking a joke, or a one-liner. How could you keep that up all day without saying something??? :smile:


By stare at each other, I don't mean stare at each other. ;)

Really? Where are these men that love a beautiful woman with a 3.80 GPA in pre-medical school classes (me), that has her own things going on and is very busy between working very hard and college? Because I'm right here. I kept all my activities when I fell in love, kept studying while letting him know which days I was available, and the relationships always ended. I supported every man I dated, emotionally and with the ra ra cheerleader support for their ambitions at work and in life.

Men say they want a beautiful,intelligent, independent woman, then they say things to me like 'Don't be an RN, that's too hard. Just be an STNA'. Or they call me 'genius', out of jealousy for their own feelings of inadequacy? Most alpha males have been snapped up, apparently. Where are the men that are not intimidated by any woman, because they have their own thing going on? I ask 'Are you going to pay my bills? Then what are these comments about my career really about?"

OR... have something of your own going on (career wise, friendwise, etc.)so I can marry you in order for you to give me children and quit your job and stay at home? Is that it? I missed the boat, being over 40. Guess I was too independent for them.
