If you marry someone because they are "sexy" you're probably going to be bored in 3 months.
If you marry your best friend, you are going to have fun with someone you respect and respects you for, potentially, your whole life.

As of right now, my wife and I have been married 34 years, and still like each other.
No, no wife pics, don't ask.

Quit watching what everyone else is doing and focus on you.
You'll be more mentally healthy that way.

Rest and rehab a groin pull so that it doesn't turn into hip replacement
Don't eat that crap, its not worth the added weight
Treat people with respect, even if they don't act nice
Buy ammo

Life will load all kinds of garbage on you. Shake it off.
Pay attention to what you are supposed to be paying attention to.
There are lots of time/energy/motivation stealers in the world.

Work your timeline. Don't compare to others who have had things happen quicker.
Their timeline is not your timeline.

It depends on the man. I have known guys who when they were young wanted nothing but a variety of women to score with, no kids, no commits, but then got older and realized they were going to be alone. It's especially bad if you hit an illness. Tough soldiering through serious sickness alone.

I have had a knee replaced, a hip replaced and beat cancer. My amazing wife and kids were right by my side the whole time.

Testicle. No chemo, no radiation. Caught it in time. I lost a nut to surgery, but everything works fine. Clean for over 10 years now.

Guard your heart.
Bitterness can lead to illness. Forgive easily. Move on.
Don't spend your energy on imagining the demise of others.
