I know it's the wrong way to look at it, but there are a lot of scammers out there in Australia, a lot of the women just want to screw a bloke over whether its marriage or having kids....
There is a major problem with laziness and lack of morals and ethics in my age group unfortuantely
I don't see any benefits in the whole institution of marriage now, esp in Australia where things are so against the males in every aspect, there is no real gain at all, but a potential gain for the women.....so much for equality
This is a constant issue I keep coming across and have stayed single because of this reason.
In my case, I'm not a kid kinda person, never have been and I doubt that's going to change anytime soon
The world already has enough dead beat parents who will more than likely breed more dead beat kids.....
I think it's horses for courses, everyone is entitled to their opinion on the matter, it's just a "Choice" we decide to make with the right (or maybe not so right) person.
I've made my choice not to be pressured or bullied into having a family and I actually look for women who don't want kids to avoid the pressures also
Sounds like the job I need to be doing....but I'm not a sales person and I hate wooing clients....take me as I am or don't do business with me is how I tend to approach it lol
Can totally relate to that, I also work for a global company (consulting & outsourcing etc) and its very common to have meetings at strange hours due to colleagues in different countries and time zones etc, glad I'm not in that area, I'll stick to supporting 2500 laptop users and doing server crap instead lol
It's funny you should say about your daughter and her partner meeting via the industry...it's quite common place due to similar interest factor and the ability to understand what each other's job entails and sacrifices that need to be made to succeed in their roles and careers in general (and relationships)
Most of us do have the "inner nerd" but in my age bracket, it's neither cool or fashionable to put it out there.....rather ironic that 99% of the people who tend to think it's not cool own a mobile phone, tablet (Ipad, Galaxy tab etc) or a laptop (MAC or PC) which was invented and developed by who.....NERDS :P
Generally I don't tend to frequent pubs or clubs very often these days as I spend most of my time in either the office or training in the gym twice a day, or studying if the chance arises....the perils of being an IT nerd :D
At least that's reassuring (the part of not making spectacles on yourselves), I guess I'm a little more experienced in the internet meeting/greeting than I wish to admit lol
Give me a latte or a lemon lime and bitters and I should be alright
Yes, trashed! I've been to meet and greets online for many years (been online since I was 15m so close to 18 years) and some of the people get blind drunk.....instant turn off lol
