I appreciate your response. But I should stress I am genuinely happy.
Also - I have a bunch of problems with the concept of marriage. One is the 50% chance of a divorce. And no matter how selective you are in choosing a woman to marry - it is all bit of a lottery.
The second is that I have no desire to be around any woman over the age of 35. So - the whole concept of a marriage would never do it for me anyway.
I probably am a bit nihilistic. But that doesn't mean I'm unhappy.
In some ways my approach to life is a little like the 'herbivores' of Japan. Accept they sound a bit gay. Whereas I prefer to devote my energies to having mad shit fun, and studying interesting shit. Anyway - despite the terrible name - I will link to an article about it below since it is suggestive of a wider trend. Personally - I think porn is a game changer. Porn has made my standards so ridiculously high - that I am only interesting in top shelf pussy. It has spoiled me and I can only get interested in high 8's, 9's and 10's. And I can't be bothered learning Game since I much prefer spending my time reading. Still - I totally respect those who do. And I may change my mind one day. I just have a lifestyle that works for me. Anyway - here is that article.

Also - no way I would ever not be an atheist. Shit - even if I did believe in God I would refuse to worship him. It seems like some weird ego trip to expect someone to worship you just because you are superior to them. It would be like me having a dog and expecting him to worship me just because I am a 'higher being' than him. And if God doesn't like my attitude then I will happily swap places with him and I will promise him that he can do what the fuck he wants and worship me as little as he wants. I won't give a shit.
I never understood the theological reasons behind why we are supposed to worship God. Anyway - none of it matters - since (in my opinion) he doesn't exist.
Sorry for the sidetrack. Just wanted to give a wider statement of how I view things.
I am an idiot in alot of other areas. So - it is possible that I am wildly wrong in this area as well. Which is why I find it an interesting topic to discuss.
Cheers!
