The Internet dating world is a cesspool

Tape that one on your mirror, Stain.
That should be your target.
I'm pulling for you.

 

Try public libraries and community events. Leave the T-shirt in the drawer.

 

You are trying for the unpossible.

Everybody is crazy.
Everybody has the potential to annoy someone else within the tight space of a committed relationship.
It's how you negotiate the things the other person does to irritate you.
I remember interviewing an elderly black couple that runs a civil rights museum, at one of my stops.
They asked my wife and I to have coffee with them and we got to talking about marriage.
They had been together for 55 years, at the time.
How did you do it, we asked.
"We work at it."
That was one of the greatest pieces of relationship advice Fart ever got.

 

Rick, just don't talk about pro wrestling or fantasy sports.

 

I know a beautiful woman who loves pro wrestling. (Alas, she's taken.)

 

I don't play fantasy sports and I'm properly ashamed to like pro wrestling.

 

I do a lot of engaging with gallery folks and I ask newlyweds, long-timers, etc "Why?" and the answers usually gravitate around this.

"She puts up with my shit" or "We never go to bed angry" or "You need a lot patience" etc etc etc.

 

These guys wholeheartedly agree.

 

If Freq is picking up women in the produce section, only to bang them in a cornfield, is that like the opposite of eating organic?

 

Noting that Craig introduced me to the board on this thread seems appropriate on his birthday.

It makes me so sad, though. Despite all the time he spent here, he thought making me seem smart was the way to convince posters that internet dating works.

Guess I should be happy, though, that the Wisconsin boy didn't compare me to a deer.
