...joint production and care of children..

I tend to avoid being on the Left or the Right, and I don't agree with everything Dr. Peterson says (especially in regards to religion/faith), but I think he has a valuable perspective for us all to consider, and use it to rethink and reshape our own. For example, I've long held the belief that religion has too many drawbacks compared to benefits to offer society, and that we should seek to remove it from ourselves. However, I've come to adopt a more tolerant outlook. I still think it's mostly superstitious tribalism mixed in with far too much distorted history, but I can appreciate that some people anchor their sense of decency and human goodness around it, and those people have motivation to improve themselves based upon those beliefs. If the difference between such people being remorseless criminals or upstanding citizens is their faith, I say let them have it so long as they don't try to impose it on those who don't want it. It doesn't persuade me to believe in God, but it has granted me more respect for others' belief in it.

HydeWars fuck you. I love you and hate you. Perhaps they are the same. Goodbye. Or let's meet someday. Nobody bothers to go online to say I don't care unless they do. It has been an adventure that helped me through a time that could have been the end of me and left better than I was before. I was right that romance would never work out for me unless I met the person. If I am bad at reading people in general, I find it impossible online. It may have been that simple. Live and learn. Thank you for everything. Fuck you.

I am in my mid-sixties. I have found that the best reason to be married is as follows: When one comes upon something that one finds very funny, it is essential to have someone else with whom one can share the joke. (For this reason, I believe that it is important to marry someone who is more-or-less the same intelligence as oneself, and someone who shares the same political/religious/cultural values as oneself. Otherwise, they won't be able to get the joke.)

Sense of humour helps. I married one with none. So I tried to compensate for his seriousness by seeing the humour in serious situations. I have to be able to laugh at these sometimes, to avoid crying. But he wasn't amused and it only made things worse! "What's so funny?!?" he'd scowl.And I couldn't stop laughing in the middle of serious arguments about trivialities. One particularly stormy day, weather-wise ie wild winds blowing etc, "stormy boy" younger man husband got mad about me forgetting to leave a welcome home light on one night for when he came home from work. I tried to apologise and explain how I forgot and I was singing some silly song "Long As I See The Light" as I stirred a lot on the stove and promised hima good hot home cooked meal. It wasn't enough. Be wanted to argue. About the light and my singing stupid songs about the light and his mumalways left the light on for his dad tocomehome to,blah, blah and then he stormed off into thedarkness and slammed the front door, soI went behind itto make sure it was locked as I was alone and scared of other I truders, not my angry bad tempered dearest beloved "sunny boy" husband. Unexpectedly, a wild vust of wind pushed door back against my outstretched hand behind it and then he burst back in shouting "And another thing about you and all this stuff blah, blah, blah" (typical orderly control freak talk). But my hand had been seriously injured by the force of the door hitting it and it required medical attention and a splint etc. He was in a panicstate, tryi g to bandage my damaged hand a d the medicos wanted to report it as"domestic violence", which I suppose it could have beenbut I never saw it that way. It was just a genuine, unfortunate accident. Evidenced by the fact that he was sorry for his temper tantrum and tried to fix my painful damaged hand. And I took responsibility for being a funny smartarse, joking about, singing silly songs, when I should have know that, to a serious, depressed type like him, leaving the light on had some sort of symbolic deep meaning I could not understand, because I am accustomed to always standing in the light and it shining for me. I am Abit olderand wiser now and think I understand certain personality types different from mine a little better than then. Humour is fine, but you need to be careful who you use it onand what situations. Some can't see the funny side of things and laugh about it, to ease the tension, and thus make way for a solution to be found to differences, problems etc.

This is so right. As a young guy, whenever I mention that people need to use logic and reason when choosing to be in a relationship or get married, people tell me I'm wrong and stupid and that's it's all about love and emotions. And that's wrong. They're immature people who think this. Sure, that's half of the equation, but the other half is using maturity, logic, and planning just like Jordan Peterson explained. People who don't understand this are doomed to end up unsatisfied with their relationships.

ObscurityIsBest My wife is extremely reasonable. Instead of blaming all women for your inability to get laid, try step 1 and look within at what you may be doing wrong. The problem with a lot of women nowadays is they lack discipline. They’re told from day 1 they can do no wrong and any problem they deal with is created by men. They’re basically told that the world would be a perfect happy-go-lucky utopia if it weren’t for men. That isn’t women’s fault, that’s other men’s fault for allowing society to brainwash them. Just like we discipline boys how to deal with their aggression, disobedience & energy in a productive way...we must also discipline girls to handle their emotions, insecurities & passive aggression more productively. What we must NOT do is blame women and say they’re unreasonable for being taught accountability.

@@jaredschmidt8013: I'm legitimately happy for you that you have an "extremely reasonable" wife. Cherish her with gratitude. If she's as reasonable as you say she is, then she is a rare jewel indeed. (Call me overly skeptical, but I'm interested to know how recently you married her.) If I were merely seeking to "get laid," I could have done so numerous times over with countless women. I chose not to. (Perhaps your comment was meant more as a hyperbole, a stand-in for "marriage" with a hint of sarcasm for humor's sake. If so, fair enough.) You're right about women lacking discipline. Discipline is scarce amongst both of the sexes. You mentioned that the brainwashing of women is ultimately the fault of men who allowed for the brainwashing to occur. I agree with this in part. If fathers (specifically fathers) were to actually invest time in their daughters--training them and instructing them with wisdom and insight until they grew into mature, adult women--society as a whole would be much better off. The utter breakdown of the family has been a major catalyst for catastrophic failures at every level of society. That said, women are not so easily let off the hook. They are still responsible for their own decisions/actions; they are still responsible for seeking truth in spite of their circumstances. If anyone seeks truth long and hard enough, he/she *will* find it. It is much easier to instruct, discipline, and guide a child into truth than it is to rehabilitate a broken, deceived, pride-filled adult. When an adult male is seeking a female to marry, he should by no means approach the relationship with anticipation of having to "parent" his fiancé until she is adequately mature enough for marriage. It is not a husband's job to parent his wife. Such a strategy, when employed, rarely ends in anything other than disaster. I cannot make up for what a father didn't instill into his daughter. There's a reason why many women are said to have "daddy issues."

My father told me about the whole living together thing, and at the time, I didn't believe him. "Oh I know what I'm doing! It's exaggerated!" Well after touching the hot stove when I was 20, I soon realized why living together before marriage or serious commitment is a relatively bad idea. My next girlfriend at the time wanted the same thing, to play house after 6 months. The relationship was doomed after I said no. Word to anyone thinking about it... you are the only person who knows who you are and for some people it works wonderfully, but if you're young, please live by yourself for a bit and take things slow. You'll appreciate it in the long run that you maintained that level of privacy and space until you get married. Just a bit of unwarranted advice. - a 28 year old man who's learned a few hard lessons.

@joebloggs619
@joebloggs619 4 года назад
Yes. Definitely. Refusing to discuss such awkward but important subjects is a sure red flag. Imagine what they would be like in marriage, when the inevitable differences and disagreements arise. I would not go there with such an individual. Too risky. Most men seem to hate talking to resolve issues of concern to the female. The bad choice of male partner will say there is no problem, just in your own crazy head. Any women spoken to in this way, even quietly and politely needs to see this as a red flag. He obviously thinks what you are suffering is unimportant, because you are unimportant to him. Or not important enough to try to ease your emotional pain, by trying to talk to resolve problems causing it. Which he may be inadvertantly contributing to. Other types of better men who may also struggle with talking might try to show good intentions by things such men typically do eg buy bunches of flowers, take you out on the town, or a holiday etc, where you can have a good time and escape your female misery for a while, but as soon as you return, the same old problems are still there because they were never discussed and killed off, once and for all, to clear the way for some real man/woman love stuff... But, at least these types mean well. They just go about solving such problems the wrong way. Like the abuser type, these "nice but inarticulate" types will be following a formula passed down by their fathers and grandfather's etc for "dealing with women". They never question it's relevance to this era or whether it is effective or, if it is "effective" eg " shuts her up so a man can get a bit of peace", the irreparable, lasting damage this does to their relationship, though she may keep smiling and pretending everything is OK, when it is not, just to keep the peace, as many traditional wen do, which they also learned from their mothers and grandmother's etc. Fact is, the woman's feelings of great love she once feltfor you will have changed forever, never to return, as her intense resentment of your presence in her life at all, now that she knows what you are really like, will eat away and corrode the relationship until it just falls apart. But not every women will make a big show and drama of it, complete with dramatic effects, like tears, hysterical screaming etc, like most younger ones now do.But the damage will have been silently done. No use trying to talk with a partner who is unresponsive, like a brick wall, no matter how eloquent, gentle, kindly etc you may be as a woman who genuinely loved the man and wants to save the relationship. So, such women simply go cold and distant, tune out emotionally, act polite and respectful, but all the while, they are secretly plotting how to leave such a male they see as robbing them of the chance to have a far better, happier life, either alone or with a better man. One who can and will talk to resolve inevitable problems that arise when together. Communication skills in personal relationships are something most guys fail at, though they may be excellent communicators in business eg I sales and marketing, as scammers and pimps, anything that involves "powers of persuasion". The bad male communicator males when problems arise in personal relationships, I observe, will typically have brilliant communication skills at the outset eg the meeting and courting stage, where they are trying to get you to accept them as sex partners, marriage partners or whatever guys want from women. But they suddenly lose these skills when problems, which they may be causing, at least in part, need to be discussed to resolve them. Is it because the men feel guilty? Or is it because they fear the angry female reaction ie women need to clean up their own communication techniques so the guys might be more conducive to trying to talk about it, which is hard for many of the men? Women tend to get very emotional and irrational over some issue bothering them and this can put men off talking because they fear intense female shows of emotion, especially tears, for some reason... But, tears are perfectly normal and OK and guys are allowed to cry, too. Forget what your mother told you about how "big boys don't cry" or your dad and other me ridiculing you as a boy in pain who cried, with macho Man statements like "real men aren't scared and don't cry". Fact is, real men are sometimes scared and they do sometimes feel very sad and do cry, often in secret. If genuine loving, honest women I their lives saw these tears and fears sometimes in the men they love, they would not think less of them. They would "understand" men better, on a deeper emotional level as women can, intuitively, even if the guys find words too hard to do...At least it shows they feel something... Warning,though, do not let your male defences down if you are dealing with an untrustworthy female manipulative type or if you suspect your once loyal, honest, but dumb easily led sheep like partner has had her mind worked on, by feminists. This is a lot like the "radicalization" certain terrorist sects subject their recruits to. Pretty full on, intensive, with offers of rewards, sense if belonging to something big and powerful, protective, chance to shine etc etc. How can you tell if she has been? Just study changes in her behaviour eghow she reacts to things you say and do eg she becomes assertive, more independent, questions things you say, is out more often than at home, wants to start some new study course or get a job when she was previously happy as a normal stay home wife and mother. Also study her changes of appearance eg cuts her long hair short, dyes it some weird or "power" colour, red being a favourite one among feminists because of certain famous red headed female power figures eg queens etc and because redheads have a reputation for the sort of feistiness feminism encourages... Or she may be a natural blonde but suddenly dyes her hair a dark shade, to appear more intelligent and seriously career minded etc, since blo Des are often associated with being just some pretty but dumb airhead type who is likely to be a housewife or dizzy dumb movie star type, sex symbol etc.Also her style of fashion. Certain styles eg clear cut, no trimmings, straight lines, solid colours, non flounces skirts will scream "feminist" and "millennial feminist". If she never wore such minimalist, clear cut styles but suddenly starts, you know she has crossed over and you need to be very alert and watch her every move from thence on, to ensure you protect your own financial and other interests as a man in a partnership with such a changing female because it will be downhill all the way from now on, for you. But not for her, if you let her exploit you as nearly every feminist and also some traditional women will, when a relationship begins to disin tegrate.

Dankus Maximus I won't defend Golden Wizard but I do understand why some wish to dismiss Psychology as a science. A few are the DSM such as version 5, it's based mostly on consensus than actual research. Some wish to lump the study of psychology in with the other social sciences that unfortunately have leaned more toward feminist agendas then factual studies. There is some long term factual articles in Psy such as David Buss in evolutionary Psy that are amazing to read, google him and first link at U of texas will get you to what he has published for free. I have been studying Psy for years and can see what is science and what is more point of view. As for the flaw in idolizing someone. If you do, your going to place them on a unrealistic pedestal they never would want to be placed on to begin with and it is impossible for them to remain there. Since you idolize them, your special treatment towards them will cause them not to respect you then leave you. How would you feel if someone especially a love partner idolized you? Google "Why don't woman want to be with a nice guy" or Nice Guy Oneitis" you will find idolizing someone will cause you to slack off on what the other originally found attractive about you along with a loss of self.
@dankusmaximus7622
@dankusmaximus7622 7 лет назад
Perhaps I didn't articulate myself correctly. I'm not saying that Psychology isn't a science, I'm saying the exact opposite. I'm in direct contrast with those, such as Golden Wizard, who are quick to either A) Condescend the study of Human Psychology; or B) Deny the study of Human Psychology. And while I understand that there are some people out there with ideologies about Psychology and the effect it has on people. But I'm coming from a standpoint that Jordan Peterson isn't an ideologue. Also, I feel as though I failed to articulate myself on the point of idolization. You see, I guess what I was trying to say is not necessarily that I idolize Jordan Peterson, as I wouldn't hesitate to call him on what he says. Rather, I respect him to such a degree that I feel that he wouldn't intentionally tell me something false. But either way, my original post/ point stands, and I do expect a response from Golden Wizard at some point.

One of my main things I look at is "how do we fight". Meaning while we usually people do have debates/arguments/fights... and if you both can successfully navigate through it to a acceptable solution (for both of you). On the other hand, if in these situations cannot be successfully solved (and just ignoring the disagreement is not a successful resolution) and/or if you boy/girlfriend starts throwing insults... or bringing up past arguments... should be a big red flag. The courting phase as the say ... "It is as good as it gets" ... after getting married the events the cause disagreements will only increase in number. And if you cannot "fight nicely" with each other... building a life together will be very difficult. Just my two cents... take it for what it's worth.

Giving each other space, and not feeling neglected or insulted when you partner asks for it, is SO important. So I would add that if you live together, you need a place that is big enough to give each of you a private retreat, whether to work or just be by yourself for a bit. You don't have to be around each other every moment. You don't have to go to bed at the same time. We need space to ourselves occasionally, especially the introverts among us, who need alone time to re-energise. I would never want to be with someone who does not understand this. My current partner even acknowledged that she knows married couples who live separately very successfully. This was reassuring to hear, not because we don't want to live together, but because it shows she understands that space apart can be just as important to marital success as being together.

"You have to be able to tell the truth and the truth is generally a horrible thing." Absolutely. People pay lip-service to honesty and the truth but when it comes down to it people are far more likely to engender the illusory side of life rather than the stark reality. Connecting with people who are not only interested in honesty and the truth but who also walk-that-walk is perhaps the most important aspect of a healthy, life-long relationship. And no more so than a life-partner. Without absolute honest about absolutely everything with your life-partner will inevitably lead to and uneven keel and the boat of your life will tip over.

A soul connection is a resonance between two people who respond to the essential beauty of each other's individual natures, behind their facades, and who connect on this deeper level. This kind of mutual recognition provides the catalyst for a potent alchemy. It is a sacred alliance whose purpose is to help both partners discover and realize their deepest potentials. While a heart connection lets us appreciate those we love just as they are, a soul connection opens up a further dimension -- seeing and loving them for who they could be, and for who we could become under their influence. This means recognizing that we both have an important part to play in helping each other become more fully who we are....A soul connection not only inspires us to expand, but also forces us to confront whatever stands in the way of that expansion.

I’ve tried my whole adult life to obtain this type of relationship, I am a sensitive, sensible woman but the men I have put my precious time into have let me down by dismissing my needs. I’m now 43 with no partner, no children and I’m still putting my best foot forward to dating but at this age it is brutal. More lies than ever before now and at the exact time I am at my most honest and confident about who I am. I certainly don’t go on dates and open with ‘I want children etc etc’ because I know it’s too late for that and deep down I don’t hold much hope for the men I meet in their 40s & 50s. They are incredibly unrealistic about life. I would still like to look after a man and still hope to get married but this gets further and further away from me everyday. Some of it is dating fatigue but most of it is spending lots of time & energy on a relationship that only ever last 6 months. I’m very tired of being used and thrown away. It has shaped me unfortunately and unfairly. I also wish the love of my life had not taken my best years (my whole 20s) then left me to marry another 6 months later.

To go on living in such an inauthentic nature just for the sake of a relationship is also perhaps even more heartbreaking then the heartbreak I endured when she broke up with me after 5 years. Now, realizing this truth, with some prayer, my heart is truly healing and feels freer by the day. Truth really does set you free.

This all sounds very nicely thought out and rational. The only problem is, most people, especially young ones of marriage age, are anything but. Instead of reason, they are motivated almost exclusively by passion and lust. No one thinks at all clearly under those conditions, I'm afraid. The result: it becomes a crap shoot on whether the one you're physically attracted to is also someone you are evenly remotely compatible with otherwise.

This is absolutely right. Only one tiny problem: there’s no way you can negotiate division of labor in any detail, especially with possible future kids in picture. And lots of people marry too young to even know what adult life entails, and there’s nothing wrong with that. But the attempt to negotiate serious things will show you how you communicate, and if there’s no maturity there even when the going is relatively easy, the pain in store for you if you ignore that.

A problem with the aspect of negotiation is, when your argumentational quality is so flawless, that your partner HAS to agree with you and therefore does if she or he has a certain amount of intelligence, but actually doesn't WANT to. You will feel like you have found an agreement with her, but she is dissatisfied on the inside because the irrational emotional drive that brought her into the argument in first place is not resolved. Her pride however might prevent her from admitting this and it will only come out much later and totally unexpectedly. You won't know where this sudden anger of her is coming from unless you dig really deep, to find out it was that same crap you thought you had agreed on three weeks ago. You've really got to be a psychological prodigy with years of training to negotiate with a partner and be sure it will actually last.

@evingrost2749

Maybe your problem is that you are so unbelievably arrogant that you actually believe your "argumentational quality is flawless." Part of being in a relationship is compromise, no matter who is right or wrong. I'm terrified of spiders. My husband can speak rationally till he's blue in the face about why that's an irrational fear and how I'm wrong to fear them, but he doesn't. At the end of the day, he knows I'm terrified of them, so he kills them. That's what makes him a great husband. If you suffer this problem, try pulling your head out of your ass long enough to ask your partner how he/she feels and what you can both do to remedy the situation to the point both parties are satisfied. It's not about being right, it's about being happy. For both of you.
@IIIIIawesIIIII
@IIIIIawesIIIII 7 лет назад
Evin Grost The problem is not things that can be understood with a regular amount of empathy or even that the partner expresses clearly. If a partner says "I am afraid of spiders" and you know a little bit about humans, then you know that the fear of spiders does not have an intellectual cause and therefore can't simply be overcome with words. Therefore you will relieve his/her suffering by getting the trigger of the partners fear-reaction away from her attention, in this case, killing the spider or throwing it out of the window. The real problem is, if there are emotional or mental problems in a partner that manifest in argumentativity or (passive) aggression. Whenever humans have an emotional impulse or reaction they connect it to the next best/plausible cause, which often is quite unplausible. This especially is a problem, if the person doesn't consciously know the reason or tries to suppress it for being ashamed for it or just considering it irrational themselves. Think of a man who feels ashamed of his physical attributes or unpopularity with women. He will bear anger and desperation, but out of pride he won't admit the real cause, not even to himself. He will maybe project the anger onto some political question that seems trivial to us. He might become aggressive and violent to other people easily when they are just looking at him or a bit unpolite, his argumentation for the violence will be "nobody may look at me that way", but this was just a trigger to release the anger coming from something totally different. When a woman is pregnant or in her period she sometimes also can have very weird/exaggerated reactions to tiny things. "WHY DID YOU BUY THAT BREAD, I PREFER THE OTHER ONE *cries in the corner* " and such things. But as you know the cause for her overreaction you will understand and have compassion. If you, however, don't know the real cause and it is very hard to find, then you might start arguing why the situation is the way it is, why you acted how you did and where you know you could have done better etc. If you are right and she is smart she will agree on this, yet the real root of her anger which had few to do with bread stays unsolved and will express again soon, only leaving tiny clues about what it is, at best.

Holy Atheist i understand you. You are provoked by the words "flawless argumentational quality" that I used. It makes you angry, that somebody uses these words that could potentially be meant to express that they are so smart, that they always win their arguments. That's not what I meant. What I meant was, that there are times when your arguments are clearly right and it gives the other person no more option to negate it. Maybe the problem was just really simple and the answer was just as simple, but out of emotional impulses the problem still occurred. Even a person with an IQ of 90 or less can deliver arguments of a flawless quality if the problem is sufficiently simple. Keep in mind that RU-vid is international though, and like many others, I am not an English native speaker and therefore am not as routined in shaping a subtext that makes my words easier to interpret. This being said, I understand your emotional reaction to my potential expression of arrogance, yet I don't appreciate or approve your premature unwillingness to keep your feelings for yourself. I am, furthermore, unwilling to not express my thoughts and share my experiences when they do no expectable damage but bear the potential to open a dialog and might affirm other people who made similar experiences. I felt, that these aspects of the question of negotiation in relationships were underrepresented in the discourse, and therefore adequate to share. Nevertheless it would be hypocrisy to say, that I don't consider myself reasonably intelligent, otherwise I would not have considered it adequate to share my thoughts with others in first place. Yet, many people like you might believe to know better and therefore are smarter, but this is only natural and absolutely fine, as long as they are noble enough to reflect my words before they publicly disagree and initiate a debate on my person.
@zerstorer335

It's almost like it's necessary to return to an approach like was present in the 1800s and earlier, where romantic love is great *IF* it manifests; but marriage and family wasn't just something you did for love. It was very similar to a business transaction. Sure, we may joke about nobles marrying off their kids to strengthen alliances; but even the poor folk were thinking about things like "is he a good provider" or "will she keep a good household" and *not* just "are you madly in love and would do anything to be with them". Your marriage and the family that came from it was a critical part of your welfare protection and social security. When times got tough, your family was the first thing you leaned on. When you got old and couldn't work, your kids were your retirement plan. There's still lots of room for love and passion; but you didn't hitch your wagon to someone who can't / won't contribute or who's heading in a dramatically different direction.

After fighting we can talk so well, just honest truth, because during the fight we used up all of our emotions and afterwards we are just... zen somehow for a lack of a better word. I knew I loved him the first moment I interacted with him and I knew I will stay with him for the rest of my life and do ANYTHING I have to do to keep this man at my side.

Just pure, raw honest discussion about your beliefs or relationship expectations. Share responsibilities etc., Than work real hard to achieve this because without hard work, ain’t nothing good is going to come out of it. Ofcourse have fun in the process, however, be an adult.

Though "feelings" in the vein of ethics and trust are important, the end-goal is to establish a partnership that stands the test of time, in all its struggles and tribulations; that is predominantly only accessible when approaching marriage with that sort of partnership/business model in mind. You can think about it as being that the quality of service is only equal to the value of capital invested. That said, seek self-knowledge and always tell what you know to be true. The emotionally stunted, vainglorious trolls will just have to tow the line. XD

Interesting that I come across this just now, because recently I have been thinking about how much I have been programmed to look into the future in my relationships too much, and don't let them develop. The input I can offer here is this: Yes, being able to talk to your partner like that is a core identifier of a fulfilling lasting relationship (romantic or platonic; probably usually also sexual), but a large part of what creates the value of your relationship consists of together creating the basis for that kind of communication. So because of that alone there is no need to dump someone the moment you find you don't have that quality in your relationship. Another significant aspect of this is that you should not look down on relationships that are not destined to last; neither yours nor other people's. Not every romantic endeavour has to culminate in making it to dying together, and the set of values that makes you only care about the "true soulmate" will often make you too distanced; uninvolved with your existing relationships to ever establish a relationship of such depth. Which is not to say I would disagree with 3:50; I think commitment to a relationship is the only thing that will give you the priority that a romantic relationship requires to be romantic at all [You can be a great friend and partner to someone without being committed to wanting to be there for them at all times; that doesn't have to interfere with your passionate efforts for their happiness - but you can't claim that they would be more important to you than any other aspect of your life, if you don't make that (at least internal) promise to stay with them forever, unless any of the fundamental compontents of your relationship become lost]; what I am saying is rather that those non-committed partnerships still add value to your life, and there is no need for the efficiency of primarily finding your "soulmate" by neglecting your non-committable relationships, **even** if finding such a person is a core driver of your identity. Because a) having other relationships does not have to keep you from looking for that soulmate (so long as you are not leading anyone on about your plans), and b) even if that soulmate is part of your purpose to life, that doesn't diminish the value of the other aspects of life, such as existing and newly found relationships with people who are not meant to be your future life partners.

Such a wise man, I got divorced 2 1/2 years ago, two years ago I broke my back, my neck, my ribs, my skull in two places and I went from bipolar to pretty normal and positive after accident changed the way my brain thinks and I’m happy to be alive and I’m happy to be alone at this point, I still want to get married again, I had a beautiful wife, but I didn’t treat her very well because of my disease and because my selfishness, but now I’m doing great.Doing research now, so that I can possibly have a beautiful wife, treat her well, and be the best man that I can.

You must appreciate this mans candidness toward someone whom he doesn’t even know. He likes the word “idea.” Try that idea sometime.
