fixedUncertainty is an expensive thing.
If we could predict people's actions, existence would be great.

You would probably be truly surprised at what makes some people get out of bed in the morning.No it wouldn't. It would be just as dry and boring as counting other peoples money. Money isn't as satisfying as good healthy relationships. I swear you grew up out in the jungle on your own or something.
First, most girls are anti-prenup. Second of all, if you don't trust enough to go without a pre-nup, why try at all?You could always get a pre-nump though I think with kids you are probably fucked either way.
Of course they are aware of the risk. Ive been in love. Its part of it. I look at life differently than you though, so the comparison would be invalid.Consider being in love. Do people put much thought into how vulnerable that feeling makes them? They are putting their emotions at risk for some trollup to do what she pleases with. I can't say I am a big fan of that.
There is. But it takes a certain person. Nothing is ever all or nothing in this day and age. Except death of course, but since that is also the only certainty in life it cancels out.If there was a way to mitigate that risk...or at least take incremental steps. Alas, it seems to be all or nothing.
nDeedUncertainty is a necessary thing.

I I know.
Of course I wasn't being literal.I didn't grow up in the jungle. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Oh, don't get me wrong, I totally agree. If this is what gets flip by each day then so be it. I personally just can't understand it. Knowing that were are extremely social animals, it baffles me how some people get this sort of view. I don't expect Flip to change or do things the way I would. Everyone has to figure out there own way in the end.You would probably be truly surprised at what makes some people get out of bed in the morning.
To each there own I say. As long as you arent harming anyone else of course.
As I have said before, relationships aren't finance and shouldn't be treated as such.If there was a way to mitigate that risk...or at least take incremental steps. Alas, it seems to be all or nothing.

If you are truly happy in your life being single and not taking 'emotional' or any other kind of risk then by all means go for it.
Nobody should be able to tell you how to live your life.
And she wouldn't feel the same way if you cheated?I just hated the idea when I was in a relationship that any day I could find out she was cheating on me and all my invested time and effort was for nothing.
people can, you just dont know how. fair enough?I trust money more than I do people. I understand it and can model it. I understand if I accumulate a certain sum, I can exchange it for something else. People on the other hand, do not follow such rules. If people were as consistant as money, the world would be a great place.
is this why my life is boring right now?Uncertainty is a necessary thing.

learn to deal with it.Consider being in love. Do people put much thought into how vulnerable that feeling makes them? They are putting their emotions at risk for some trollup to do what she pleases with. I can't say I am a big fan of that.
seems, but isnt.If there was a way to mitigate that risk...or at least take incremental steps. Alas, it seems to be all or nothing.
because anything can happen. if you arent certain the market will make you money, and not lose it, why try at all?First, most girls are anti-prenup. Second of all, if you don't trust enough to go without a pre-nup, why try at all?
I just hated the idea when I was in a relationship that any day I could find out she was cheating on me and all my invested time and effort was for nothing. This would be many times worse if I was married and family was involved.
never know til you try.Happy now...yes. However it does not seem to be a good long term plan.
STFU and GTFOhuh?
Yes, but how is SHE to be sure of that?I know I wouldn't cheat.
Ouch.Turns out I was sick from strep.
Funny thing is..My first poast in CT. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wave.gif.002382ce7d7c19757ab945cc69819de1.gif
