Drinking occasionally. I agree with the meaning 'occasion', at times of a special occasion and not an every day thing. Someone who does not really drink, only very rarely.

Romantic Love. Seems to begin in different ways, many talk about love at first sight, others talk of how they fell in love with a friend they had known only as a friend for a long time. However you find the one for you, I believe that love grows stronger, becoming much deeper as time goes on, but is also fragile and needs to be nurtured, and show that love to your partner often.

Say, "Do you come here often". Works every time.

Maybe you see only what you want to see, and create an illusion that deceives, because you don't see what you don't want to see.

There is growing fear here in the UK. The coming advances in AI and its introduction into all kinds of businesses will cause unemployment to increase, the fear is by how much it will increase. If this were to be very high, the welfare state system is in serious danger of collapse, unable to meet the required benefit payments to all those becoming unemployed.

Thanks for the replies and your thoughts.

I think the days when guys were the sole bread winners and girls were home makers ended here in the UK a long time ago, for a very long time now its more of an equal team, and in todays world you need two incomes to live as a couple. I believe for most when young in our 20s, you are more or less on the same standing just starting out in life so it is something you don't much consider, it does not really matter, there are the many other important things to look for in a life partner.

For older people it's different in my opinion. They have moved along in life, and most will have achieved certain goals, gained wisdom and life experiences, and generally are living a comfortable life. This is when, and why, it becomes important to find someone similar in standing in life to yourself in my opinion, just as important as many of the other things we consider when looking for a life partner.

When seeking a new partner in life, how important do you believe it is to find someone similar in standing in life to yourself. Is it as important as say, finding someone the same age as yourself, or has the same interests, similar goals, good personality, character, and the many other things. Does it matter and is it a priority, or is it Irrelevant in a search for a new partner in life, to making it successful. What are your thoughts.

My thoughts, from what I have read.

Jeffrey Epstein died in prison awaiting trial, so I am of the opinion it was suicide, very difficult in such a confined location for it to be murder.

I read somewhere not long after Covid-19 was declared a pandemic, that a team of scientists had investigated this new strain of virus regarding its origins, and concluded it was a mutation. There was nothing to indicate it was manmade. If it had previously existed and escaped from some laboratory in China, you would think at least the Chinese would have had a vaccine, but it was as new a virus to them as everyone else, and many people died from it in China, had they had a vaccine they would have used it in my opinion.

AI. I do believe this will replace many jobs, in many fields, and you cannot put the genie back in the bottle. Perhaps governments could introduce legislation that would slow down any introduction of AI to avoid large scale redundancies, everywhere at the same time. Retraining of those affected to other roles in the organisations. This would require the cooperation of industry, and many other areas to achieve an outcome that benefits all. No doubt there are many functions of AI such as in weapon technology, that would require global agreements, achieving those could be difficult. There will be many benefits from AI.

I am a bit late to comment, but pleased to hear all has gone well. I hope this does not mean you will be leaving Mingle2 now you are dating. I would certainly miss your postings here in the Forums, your many topics and ideas put forward, but I suppose this is what happens.
