I'm so tired of being sick & alone

1 -- not a stupid question. it's one I wrestled with and do sometimes still find baffling when my girlfriend smiles and swoons and focuses (positively) on my appearance. I know what you're talking about Sarge.

2 -- let me change your question a little bit... from "women" to "a woman". It just takes one man. Which one, and where is she, those are good follow up questions, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. It just takes one man. Never mind "women", just one will do ya. And finding that one is absolutely possible, you've already met a number of them, not including SG and Lola. Did they not see you for who you really are? I say this is not some impossibility. It has happened, and can happen again.

3 -- all the rest, gruffness, how you are with children, etc etc. sure. I'm down with all that. You can meet a special woman, you can. And there's not just one how, there are lots of ways, all of which require your active participation, plenty of patience and perseverance. Have courage!!
