Do you have what it takes to be a GREAT Significant Other?

Boy I sure don’t. I’m way too busy with my own pursuits. The goal of course is to achieve them and then be able to take the time to pursue other things affectively… like a committed relationship, or not.

Though most of my younger vices have been put away, I’m still a smoker. And I’d very much not want to bring that into a relationship. Pretty ladies don’t like stinky men, right? Of course I want to quit, and feel that I will soon. But I certainly don’t want to be quitting while pursuing a relationship.

I’d also like to get my kids grown and out of the house before presenting them with a new Mom. Uhhggg! One down, one to go. I also don’t want any more children so that might be a red flag to a new gal.

And Damn! I love my privacy! How’my gonna deal with loosing that in a committed relationship?

Is it so bad to have a couple of friendly girlfriends with occasional benefits? They know what’s up. And they’re busy too with much of the same issues that I have. They don’t want committed relationship either… So it fits!

Alas, there is that dream one day to find a lady and treat her like a queen. But I still feel as though it’s more important for me to become the right person before I worry about finding the right woman.

Is that so bad?
