I too have lived in a number of places in the U.S., as well as outside the U.S. I am also completing my Ph.D. What I've found is that these things have nothing to do with being happy or satisfied with life. If I am looking for 'more' in a woman this has nothing to do with how much 'experience' she has, how well travelled she is,or how much money she makes. These things wouldn't impress me in a woman either. What I"m looking for isquality ofcharacter. I realize that many men may differ with regard to this.
I agree! Most defintely A+ on this one

what if he is sitting on his haunches and LOVING life? what if he looks around and sees beauty in the sunrise? what if a little rust on an old chevy truck is good enough? then,, perhaps, it is not that it is not good enough FOR YOU, it is just that your perspective weights things differently. some need that sunrise from the balcony of a penthouse in Manhattan, some from a beaach in Bahamas, some from back porch in podunk. not the same sunrise, but it is the same sun. you just have to find someone who wants to share your view.


I like this concept.
well written Lada


As with most things, it's the attitude. I would prefer someone that has made the decision of enjoying what they have because it's what they want rather than the attitude of can't be bothered so I'll just enjoy what I've been dealt.


It's such a wonderful feeling to reach a pointof contentment, thenstop, smileand exhale...

well..your own words can come back to bite you. I've never valued economic reward and oddly enough, I don't have much of it, either. Patting myself on the back for saying I don't own a grand house, but this antique jewel is paid for; I don't drive a fancy car but can outdrive most on these dirt roads; I don't dress well but I can clean up good...I don't know. It looks like I am going to try the other tack for awhile.

There's nothing wrong with changing roads if another looks like it will take you somewhere interesting. It's not like the one you're on will disappear and you can never return. Some of the best times of my life I've had by doing something that was completely the opposite of what I thought I'd be doing.
