Thanks, and glad that you found someone good for you. And you make a good point about talking/engagement, but the problem for me seems to be finding someone and reaching that point. And no worries, I certainly wouldn't treat a woman like a toy or an object or something I'm entitled to. They are people, with hearts and minds and feelings that should be respected and treated with caring and kindness. Their love is something to be earned and cherished rather than expected and taken for granted. Unfortunately far too many have seem to have forgotten that, but it's good to hear that some such as yourself haven't. I hope you and your waifu have many great days together in the future.

Thanks for the advice on that. So far so good then, I already don't do those things and I am honest. And you're definitely right about being honest and upfront about things. It creates problems on both sides when people aren't. My #1 dating site complaint is when someone who is a transgirl or gay male claims they are a biological female to scam straight guys, wasting our time with their fraudulent BS. Nothing like searching for women to date and seeing an obvious dude with a beard registered as "female". I have no problems with LGBT people in general, I have some friends online who are LGBT, BUT all I ask is that they be upfront and not lie about it. And there's no excuse for it here since trans female is a gender option. I just wish this site would incorporate that into their search options too. Got any advice on things to include in one's profile? That's what I'm trying to figure out and improve on most rn.

Holy crap, the dudes where you live sound really messed up. That stuff is just wrong, especially the sexual harassment thing. I feel for ya on the verbal abuse, I got plenty of that from my ex before I divorced her and moved out. She had some serious anger issues that I think stemmed from her own childhood abuse sadly, but her anger issues didn't start showing up until after we were married so I had no idea. I tried to help her but wasn't able to. In fairness, in the weeks after I left, she did apologize to me and we parted on good terms, so that was good. Still, before that happened things were pretty ugly with her yelling at me for sometimes a few hours straight, calling me various names and such and no matter what I did to try to keep the peace worked, it kept happening and it really wore at my sanity. I'm glad its over now. I'm not mad at her for it and I hold no grudges or ill will; life is too short for such feelings and they only hurt you anyway. I hope she's able to overcome her issues and have a good life, but that life definitely isn't going to be with me. I can't handle going through that again and I have no desire to be with anyone who has major anger or jealousy issues. And I hope things go better for you too, you deserve better than that.

Great, now all the need to do is offer them in life-sized versions and mankind will finally be able to find true happiness! =D

I really feel for ya. Getting propositioned purely for sex is bad enough, but then to get treated like a prostitute on top of that?!?! Wtf. Plus I've heard the infamous dic pic stories too. If these dudes want to be with a woman instead of offering money for sex, they should try using currency of kindness to win a woman's heart instead. It's a much better investment. Sure, all of us guys have the biological urges for **gets anime red-faced from trying to say this in the presence of such a nice deredere** um... uh... reproductive practice, and yeah it feels great while it lasts but really, you spend a relatively small percentage of your time together doing that and far more of it doing other stuff like watching anime, gaming, going on walks together holding hands, playing mini-golf or other things you enjoy doing together. And besides, um, reproductive practice with someone you love and care for when the time is right for both of you is a LOT better than a one-night stand with someone you don't know well anyways.

Election fraud has been going on for quite some time, long before the Trump-Biden election and BOTH parties use it. Look at some at the congressional district maps and you'll see that some of them are in some very weird shapes that obviously appear to have been drawn to include certain people and exclude others aka gerrymandering. In PA you only have to show ID the first time you vote and after that you only need to sign to vote. My ex-wife left the state about 5 years ago and I saw her name on the voter rolls so if someone wanted to commit fraud they'd only need to sign her name to use her vote and with modern tech it would be easy to get a list of names of people who have moved out of area in recent years so fraudsters could vote in their name. Mail in voting makes it ridiculously easy to do so since there's no ID, no showing up in person, and zero chance of being caught. One political operative who gets the right post office job can swing an election by thousands in minutes by tossing out clumps of ballots (they're sorted by zip code) from zip codes that tend to vote for a certain party. And these are only SOME of the forms of election fraud. God help us if they ever allow internet voting.

Thanks for the advice, you make a good point. Also, great waifu choice with Ruka! Def best girl from Rent-A-Girlfriend.

Given he's here in a place full of dudes who probably haven't been with a woman in some time... yeah I think he's more than got his work cut out for him!!! xD

That is the most well trained cat I have ever seen. 7 hours later and he is still sitting there, being good, and he didn't scratch up any of the furniture. What is your cat training secret?
