Majxtc,
Bless your heart. I am truely sorry about the loss of your wife.
But, you know what?... You WERE able to be with her here on this earth, even if it was not for a very long time.
You may not see it this way, but she WAS truely a gift from God, to you. I pray that you can look back at the good times you spent together and find comfort in that.
As for the "slob issue"... I hear ya, brother!!
I have never been married, and I don't have any children. At times, I feel blessed that I have not had to subject my constant selfishness and bad personality traits onto people that I am supposed to be loving. But at times.... DAMN, I get lonely!
So, is "finding a mate" for the purpose of not being lonely??? That seems like a selfish reason to me.
I still CAN'T get it right.
At present, I am desperately trying to end a "friendship" with a married woman, because I CANNOT be "friends". Not with her, or any other kind and caring woman out there. It sucks, but I instantly slide into that damned "needy" mode whenever I encounter a person like this. Sucks for me, huh???
Anyway,
"I've said too much...that's me in the corner...blah, blah, blah."
Majxtc, its too bad you did delete most of your post... Your thoughts couldve helped and brought comfort to some of us.
Maybe next time.
Peace

My love for you

If I wanna live I gotta
Die to myself someday.
