.but...I'm not willing to compromise much to get it
Why? Relationships are pretty much all compromise. (Not necessarily of principle, but...)
Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

I keep hoping one of those "and then just when she though she wouldn't meet anyone..." stories will be me someday.
Olivia just came in and asked me if I could "tell her the story of Jewish people--the WHOLE thing" tonight at bedtime.
HAH! She knows better than the abridged story? I can't wait to hear what she has to say about it.
I think the airplane food was bad or something--my tummy is very unhappy right now. The good thing, though, is that I'm home several hours earlier than planned. And my house is actually fairly neat, thanks to a frantic cleaning spell late Saturday night when people were coming over. I do have a CRAPTON of stuff to do tomorrow, though, both work and personal, in order to be ready to leave at some ungodly hour Thursday (still haven't figured out how I'm getting to the airport--it's a $50 cab ride at 5:30AM, but parking there is expensive, so...hmm)

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
To be clear, when I say "compromise" I mean that I'm not willing to date a dude with sketchy hygiene and isn't sure if the earth revolves around the sun.

Maybe don't use an online service like OKNeanderthal?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm 37 and still hope to have a baby, so....
Probably not a great idea for retirement, but I don't care. I know how to ride the subway.
NYC is a great idea for retirement! If you have enough money, at least. You can get everything delivered, don't have to do any property maintenance, and walking up and down stairs is good for the heart!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hell, I'm about to turn 30, and I've practically given up all hope. I figured I'd get an early start.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm 30, and I'm sure that I want to get married and have kids, but I don't really have any kind of plan for making this happen.
