If the children are under 12 its best not to have any contact with them till a solid relationship is formed so that the kids don't have a revolving door of men who only end up passing through and not forming a healthy attachment. Children do not need to have part time father figures as this creates instability and uncertainty. Its bad enough the biological father is not doing his job in being there, providing intellectual, emotional, physical, spiritual, financial and modeling appropriate adult behaviors for the child as a partner and friend to the mother

If everything must have a cause then god must have a cause. If god does not have a cause then it follows neither does the universe from this argument there is no escape...

A person will find whom he/she seeks with effort not waiting for chance or mystical intervention. Without facing ones fears of rejection and social inhibition we tend to get what we deserve as the universe does not keep score and life is often random and willy nilly....

Fortunately not everyone needs to dichotomize and can be comfortable with both and others too. having support and material goods are not mutually exclusive and are often found together

yes an egocentric way of communication with no concern for the affect on the other

The narrative is informative but lacks an acknowledgement of basic physical chemistry which differentiates one person greatly from another. For example one woman can by her presence alone stimulate a man to multiple orgasms whereas another simply cannot. The differences among and between women are indeed quite strong and once a man has experienced a woman who is sexually more enticing he is more likely to repeat than with another who while satisfactory is simply not as intense. This is a magical quality not related to emotion, intellect, wealth or social standing...and is why a man will do almost anything to have the experiences repeated just as lack of physical passion cannot be ameliorated as chemistry trumps all techniques as offered by Masters and Johnson in their clinic in St Louis.... The unstated fallacy is that all women are the same and can all offer the same degree of physical passion and this is simply not true as one woman can out respond any other if one has been fortunate to have been with her. Without a diverse sample a man cannot know or experience the full range of sexual degrees of arousal and without can only accept what limited experiences afford..

I am fortunate and have acquired several cars to date.

Yes there is a progression from ghosting people to now ghosting a conversation just disappear. Its easy, hiding behind a screen or phone and have no concern for others just ones own immediate needs and not a miniscule of concern for etiquette .. We are much more crass and less kind as its pervasive and pernicious...

is this really considered worth addressing?

Simplistic generalization and actually useless but makes for good stereotyping of social class differentiation,..

Self indulgent rationalizing I guess....

Oversimplification as some folks are depressed and cannot change without a counselor and often drug assistance. If a persons mood is down for more than two weeks its best to seek help and for certain after four weeks a persons friends should take them to the nearest mental health center for an evaluation , best to error on side of help then end up at a funeral later ....

Dorothy Parker said it this way regarding another woman like the aforementioned person " She ran the gamut of emotion from A to B

the aforementioned response is a wonderful example of a person in denial regarding their emotional and social needs. I am a rock I am an island and a rock feels no pain (thanks Simon and Garfunkel)

its safer and your imagination has fun without risk

and of course if blind its a moot point

whats the meaning of meaning?
