WHAT YOU SAY
[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]
MLK:
That's kind of you to say. I feel lucky to be with Julie because she's a very practical woman, while still being feminine and attractive. I can sometimes be a little flighty, so it's good that she keeps me grounded. Julie has indicated that she wouldn't have tried a lot of the things she's experienced with me (i.e. jetskiing, seeing Cirque Du Soleil in Vega$, mountain climbing in Vancouver and visiting wine country in France) without having known me because she usually has felt content to just chill out at home, rent videos, get a cup of coffee or read when she wasn't at work.
It's one of theose things where two somewhat different people help balance each other out. If we were both flighty, then there'd be problems. Same if we were both very laid back and not active. So, it all works out.

If you say we are strangers, then we are strangers. Who am I to argue with the infamous AC Dropout.
I talk plenty. But there's talk and there's 'talk'. We do quite a bit of communication here, I think, that rivals anything on a normal 'talk' scale.
I don't know. I've always been partial to bald and orange. It sounds sumptuous on you! :)

Editors
My standing ovation for a well-written comment. As always, I very much enjoy, your insightful thoughts regarding the idiosyncracies and variable attributes of many regular Goldsea posters. Would you be open to the idea of a regular exchange of communication with us (me?). I would love to be able to exchange ideas with you on a regular basis and hear your thoughts on the matter.
...although I know that you are probably far too busy to respond to me. :)

rare stuff,
I was having sex before I had an income. So being rich had nothing to do with it. Self-esteem, yes that is a trait women are attracted to.
No if someone else is having sex with your wife. It means there is no relationship between you and your wife.
You wife is having a more harmonic relationship with your friend/brother in the situation you are discribing.
I would recommend you met more women in the outside world. Gradually become comfortable around them. Find out which type of women are attracted to you. And also find out which type of women you are attracted to.

MLK,
that stuff with more lively datings and relationships is a relic of the stoneage past. (Much older than e.g. Confucius.) Today you live to work for the state, not for yourself.
Is it intellectual stimulation if you are in harmony? - Harmony is also a thing which humans can feel emotionally. Today it should not be "love at the first glance", but rather "love under will" (according to Aleister Crowley/I also dislike him) through more or less artificial harmony. Such a pragmatic principle is contrary to atavism.

AC Dropout,
maybe that's because you're rich and have self-esteem. Other people feel uncomfortable alone with the other sex.
Your experiences must be quite exotic even in this liberal age. I stress that harmony should exist from the first dating to the end of relationship. If the brother/friend has made more positive experiences than I I won't have "right" to do as if I would perform the act better than he. In this case he would make the relationship between me and my wife more harmonic.

MLK,
If you're communicating with me more than with your co-workers. It would seem either your co-workers are not very interesting or you don't like to talk a lot.
We are strangers for in the classic sense because we have not anchors to each other identity other than what are posted. In a Fruedian sense we only observe each other Ids. But Frued was debased a while ago. Nuances in personality are lost in this format.
Bald and orange don't really fit me. If I was an inmate I would most like be one of those country club facilities with all the other white collar criminals. Sipping mint ice tea while doing hard time.

Strange? Not really. I kinda thought you may not like women because you were turned off by a previous very bad marriage to a witch who made your life miserable. I was trying to find out why you didn't like women and find them to be sexually inert (meaning you don't think they are pleasing to be around with).
Are you a sorcerer-in-training?
Would you actually be happy with the idea that your brother or father or cousin or best friend was sleeping with your wife, just so you wouldn't have to sleep with her? Why then, would you even want to marry her? Wouldn't it just be better to maintain a very close friendship with a woman? All the intellectual stimulation, none of the 'crappy sex stuff'.
Oh, and do put spaces after your periods. You're starting to annoy the Editors, and we don't want to annoy the nice Editors, do we?
