Yeah, I learned not to worry about it after my first post-high school relationship fell apart. You know, the relationship where you both think that because you're 18 and not living at home anymore, you're mature enough for a long-term deal. WRONG! So pretty much every girl since then, I've taken my relationship approach with a grain of salt.
Plus I hate children and the thought of having some of my own frightens me. And I think everyone here will agree that I shouldn't be allowed to father children.
And as my old youth leader said, "why buy the cow when you get the milk for free?" I think there was more context to that quote when he said it, but taking it out of context better suits my point.
I've had too many bad relationships to think each new girl is the right one. Here's some stats:
3 - Number of ex-girlfriends who have gotten pregnant within two months of us breaking up.
3 - Number of times those pregnancies weren't because of me
1 - Number of girlfriends who converted to Islam and their new faith wouldn't allow a physical relationship.
2 - Number of girls who have tried to convince me to marry them.
14,438 hours - Time wasted trying to work things out when the end result is inevitable.
$9,837 - Ammount of money wasted on women
2 years - longest relationship to date
6 - Number of sh*tty operas I've had to attend with past girlfriends
2,391 - Number of cigarettes smoked because of girl problems
14- Number of times I've wanted to drive my car off a cliff after agreeing to listen to her Allanys Morsette (Sp?) CD while driving somewhere
Bottom line: Be very freaking careful when finding the right woman. Count your losses and move on when you fail, and never lose your dignity.
