He's built like a Model M.10/10
Her: Snowdog showing off again. I love that guy! He's built like a Model M.
Why? Perhaps because this is a keyboard forum.
My parents were on my ass about this before I got married just 3 years ago. I was into my cars, car website, and just enjoying life. And then along comes the wife. It changes everything, so you have to remember that before going that route.your parents really on your ass about this whole wife thing, huh?

99% who visit here are Males, only a tiny amount of Girls visit here due to an actual interest in keyboards and to find out what the average nerd likes to acquire.While forums in general are male-dominated, you'd be surprised how many smoking hot ladies there are online (yes, even on here). That being said, they're here for the topic 99.99999% of the time, not to find a significant other, so not only does the ratio suck, but it's also not the right place or the right time.
So if you are Gay this place might be heaven for you but if you desperately want a female then you MUST visit your local (your area) Grocery Stores, Dance Classes, Wine Tasting Events (really good), Art Gallery and Fitness Classes.

Grocery stores are awesome! I didn't meet my wife that way, but I was oblivious to a lot of ladies that were trying to start a conversation with me (I was an idiot with women and pretty much still am, lol). Friday nights were the best. I still remember the two girls that tried to start up a conversation over stove top stuffing...
I'm down to date people on the forum. It isn't like my wife is always lurking or anything.I mean you have hid your ongoing relationship with hoff for this long, surely another fling couldn't hurt. :))

Oh that's disappointing, I always thought you were cool.
I've bumped into my share of artsy girls. I met one at a party and she actually tracked me down and we went and shot photos together one day.Grocery stores are awesome! I didn't meet my wife that way, but I was oblivious to a lot of ladies that were trying to start a conversation with me (I was an idiot with women and pretty much still am, lol).

Whether her hobby be keyboard related or not my partner will be arty. The best find to find arty people is not art classes - they don't need 'em. Artists are home doing they're thing, I'm home doing mine - meeting is not an option. But you're right that even artists need to eat!
Unfortunately at the time I'm usually in a grocery store (on my way home from work) the customers are maingly old people, pairs of girls dolled up for a night on the town, or couples with tired kids making annoying noises. Needless to say as a logical and sane person my earphones stay in, but maybe that needs to change :-\
I'm down to date people on the forum. It isn't like my wife is always lurking or anything.hahaha

A Geekhacker needs to marry someone who isn't into keyboards. Someone they would have to answer to if they blew all their money on keyboards. Otherwise you're just going to end up bankrupt. Or living in a van down by the river.Hey, if only I had a van to store my keyboard collection in ... :rolleyes:
This thread should be re-named to 'Why we DON'T have a dating section....'

Yup, it was a scam all along.
Women don't need a website to cheat..
They just go to work dressed up.. Say, Hello, and boom..
If A guy wants to cheat, he has to go workout for 3 months, cut carbs, pay a months worth of some other female's food bill, Listen to and REMEMBER the things she says, THEN maybe, he gets to cheat..
So, honestly..... Yea, getting the short end here...

Um..
It'd probably work for the wife , about as well as it'd work on any-other-woman...
The key issue here is, the difference in expenditure required for gratification.
I think a major part of the problem with women with children is that they're pretty much completely locked to raising kids.
So, overall their time to work on personal social / economic improvement is hindered.
Then, they see what all these other women from much more affluent family units have, and they feel ****ty that their husband and partner can't provide those things for them..
That leading to lower desire for their partner, then less romantic interplay, then the partner decides, hai, where did I see a TP4 thread justifying what I'm about to do, ok here it is, Yup.. Social inequality, Time to workout and save some bux to pay another female.
Couldn't imagine coming home to an empty house now because she is what makes it a true home for both of us.Well said. Been married only 3 years, but now I don't remember what my life before her was like.
When you find real love you will know it, it's almost like someone switching on a bright light in a darkened room.....

most women do not have kids and then magically care about nothing else and other than raising them.

How long have you been married and how many kids do you have?

You are painting an entire gender with a very wide brush there. I think you are probably right about you statements when it comes to women who expect to be taken care of by a husband. Those people are out there, sometimes that is by thier upbringing and/or culture and sometimes it is just because it is something appealing to them.
However, most women do not have kids and then magically care about nothing else and other than raising them. Just as men don't suddently stop caring about other aspects of life. Having a kid is a big deal, but you don't lose your personality and personal interests. And most certainly women can both work and be a mother (and a good one). Cheating happens for a bunch of different reasons, none of which are good. It often involves a fair amount of stupidity, selfishness and bad decision making.
Your trouble is that you want a girl who is independant and can take care of herself, but you also want a woman to meet your outdated expectations. You can't have both, and I don't think you could handle a woman who doesn't need a provider, cause you say crazy **** that will make them want to punch you in the face.

Jeebus, have you developed fire yet or are you still learning to walk upright?
I know you are stuck in the stone age for computers, but you don't have to hold onto stone age gender stereotypes too. As for cheating, some people are not monogamous by nature, others are but still cheat, when they do, it's often because emotional needs are not being met at home. Yes, even for men. It's often less about sex, and almost never because of money (it's pretty rare when an affair will help you monetarily unless it's prostitution).
And no, you don't have spend a fortune on food if you do it right, I'm more impressed by a nice local place I never heard of than an expensive restaurant, it shows he did some research instead of breaking out his wallet and isn't just trying to buy me. The same with looking like Brad Pitt in his prime, you don't have to be sexy, smart, rich, or powerful, there are poor, fat, ugly, strange, short, and nerdy guys who get laid on a regular basis. If you spent as much time and effort on women as you do on keyboards and archaic computers (and GH!), you could too. Where is your focus in life? The guys who have sex often is because they worked at it, figured out what to say, how to say it, and put themselves out there. You may hate the "players", but they invested themselves in figuring out the game while you spent your time learning how to install Windows. On the other hand, it's good you have a hobby because for some guys, that IS their hobby, and when they finally meet that one person they want to be with, they suddenly need a new hobby.
Oh and there's nothing wrong with a van down by the river (lake, beach, mountains, etc...) if you have the right van (note: not mine).Show Image(http://image.fourwheeler.com/f/9488922+w600+cr1/129_0803_01_z%2B2006_ford_e350_sportsmobile%2Bside_view_camp.jpg)

Nobody is monogamous by nature. There is absolutely nothing natural about maintaining an exclusive romantic relationship. It's a ton of work, most of which is not directly self-beneficial. It's also the only hope for any semblance of long-term emotional stability.
And FWIW, I think tp4 is quite progressive for a China-born man.
most women do not have kids and then magically care about nothing else and other than raising them.
How long have you been married and how many kids do you have?
Which part? The part where I observed that it's hard for people to stay faithful to their spouses; the part where I rightly pointed out that cheating breeds emotional chaos; or the part where I recognized that China's legendary male-dominated culture produces men who are usually more misogynistic than our friend tp4?They just go to work dressed up..

Nobody is monogamous by nature. There is absolutely nothing natural about maintaining an exclusive romantic relationship. It's a ton of work, most of which is not directly self-beneficial. It's also the only hope for any semblance of long-term emotional stability.
And FWIW, I think tp4 is quite progressive for a China-born man.
i think...i've been offended for the first time on the internet.
that's actually quite an achievement.
Which part? The part where I observed that it's hard for people to stay faithful to their spouses; the part where I rightly pointed out that cheating breeds emotional chaos; or the part where I recognized that China's legendary male-dominated culture produces men who are usually more misogynistic than our friend tp4?They just go to work dressed up.. Say, Hello, and boom..
If A guy wants to cheat, he has to go workout for 3 months, cut carbs, pay a months worth of some other female's food bill, Listen to and REMEMBER the things she says, THEN maybe, he gets to cheat..
Then, they see what all these other women from much more affluent family units have, and they feel ****ty that their husband and partner can't provide those things for them..
Jeebus, have you developed fire yet or are you still learning to walk upright?
I know you are stuck in the stone age for computers, but you don't have to hold onto stone age gender stereotypes too. As for cheating, some people are not monogamous by nature, others are but still cheat, when they do, it's often because emotional needs are not being met at home. Yes, even for men. It's often less about sex, and almost never because of money (it's pretty rare when an affair will help you monetarily unless it's prostitution).
And no, you don't have spend a fortune on food if you do it right, I'm more impressed by a nice local place I never heard of than an expensive restaurant, it shows he did some research instead of breaking out his wallet and isn't just trying to buy me. The same with looking like Brad Pitt in his prime, you don't have to be sexy, smart, rich, or powerful, there are poor, fat, ugly, strange, short, and nerdy guys who get laid on a regular basis. If you spent as much time and effort on women as you do on keyboards and archaic computers (and GH!), you could too. Where is your focus in life? The guys who have sex often is because they worked at it, figured out what to say, how to say it, and put themselves out there. You may hate the "players", but they invested themselves in figuring out the game while you spent your time learning how to install Windows. On the other hand, it's good you have a hobby because for some guys, that IS their hobby, and when they finally meet that one person they want to be with, they suddenly need a new hobby.

Sorry for offending... I might have been better to say "quite progressive for someone raised in Chinese culture."
I was making light of this topic because it was getting too intense IMO. But when I thought you were offended and angry I got a bit defensive...Which part?

Tp4, based on your general thoughts on women you don't seem very dateable.
Thank goodness there are still the cousins.
So, hey, uhh, any ladies in the SoCal area, I'm student loan debt free and only have the awkward parts of being into keyboards and living with my parents.

I actually agree with you despite how the other post sounds.
I tend to think of what most people term monogamy as serial monogamy, but some people can't even handle that very well.
Why is the bar for a successful marriage only achievable if someone dies and anything else is a failure? That's just insanity, try using that metric for anything else. Relationships aren't meant to last 60 years, it happens, but rarely as monogamous and wonderful as people make it out to be. To anyone who disagrees, think about this, what happens when people regularly live to 150 years old(?), do we hold them to the same standard? Sorry, I'm not staying with anyone for 130 years. Marriages should be more like contracts and have a renegotiation or expiration date, where after say 4 years, you re-evaluate.

Well if you said "till death do us part" or some permutation thereof, then you are the one who set the standard for success/failure. If not, then why get married at all? What are you committing to if the terms are so vague as "till I cite irreconcilable differences" or "till I find someone younger and hotter."
I will admit that I may be old-fashioned on this, but old fashioned does not necessarily mean wrong.
although japan is far far worse ftrYou think that's bad. India is known for raping women because it's so easy to get away with it.
Tell that to Disney... they're responsible for the bulk of the misconception..It predates Disney by at least 1500 years.

What are you committing to if the terms are so vague as "till I cite irreconcilable differences" or "till I find someone younger and hotter."Committing to something doesn't always have to mean committing to it for life and even if it does only last 4 or 8 years by design, how is that any different than divorce rates? It's not being non-committal, it's being realistic.
I will admit that I may be old-fashioned on this, but old fashioned does not necessarily mean wrong.
Um..
It'd probably work for the wife , about as well as it'd work on any-other-woman...
The key issue here is, the difference in expenditure required for gratification.
I think a major part of the problem with women with children is that they're pretty much completely locked to raising kids.
So, overall their time to work on personal social / economic improvement is hindered.
Then, they see what all these other women from much more affluent family units have, and they feel ****ty that their husband and partner can't provide those things for them..
That leading to lower desire for their partner, then less romantic interplay, then the partner decides, hai, where did I see a TP4 thread justifying what I'm about to do, ok here it is, Yup.. Social inequality, Time to workout and save some bux to pay another female.
You are painting an entire gender with a very wide brush there. I think you are probably right about you statements when it comes to women who expect to be taken care of by a husband. Those people are out there, sometimes that is by thier upbringing and/or culture and sometimes it is just because it is something appealing to them.
However, most women do not have kids and then magically care about nothing else and other than raising them. Just as men don't suddently stop caring about other aspects of life. Having a kid is a big deal, but you don't lose your personality and personal interests. And most certainly women can both work and be a mother (and a good one). Cheating happens for a bunch of different reasons, none of which are good. It often involves a fair amount of stupidity, selfishness and bad decision making.
Your trouble is that you want a girl who is independant and can take care of herself, but you also want a woman to meet your outdated expectations. You can't have both, and I don't think you could handle a woman who doesn't need a provider, cause you say crazy **** that will make them want to punch you in the face.

abswyfe pls write some guest posts for my blog
I believe that marriages in earlier generations were more permanent and stable because the majority of people married very young, finished maturing together, and because life was much simpler and more difficult (ie the majority of time and energy devoted to mere survival) stayed the course without hardly even considering alternatives.Well said. I remember when people moving from and living in several different countries inside a decade was unheard of. Now, people move all the time for a job--and that in itself brings all sorts of new challenges to 'staying the course'.
Today, few people marry before they are fully mature, with their own courses much better established, and modern life has made life so much easier that not only are alternatives more abundant, but they are far easier to take advantage of.
This is not a dating site.

We heard you before. However, in tp's case, this is as close as he can expect to get.
It'd have to be a lesbian dating site, because you're all *****es.

That Ashley Madison hack was just to distract from the OPM hack news coming out.If that is the case, they did a terrible job. Everyone knows they got hacked.
Life is a journey. When people's paths intersect, they may lock together and continue indefinitely, or they may diverge after some amount of time in parallel.

Or ... back then things were made to last, and if something (including a marriage) started to break, you'd do your best to fix it.
These days everything, including people, is disposable.
I thought everyone on this site was married.We are...to our love of keyboards. :thumb:
