Since this has been going around, it's time to ask the elderly their thoughts....



If you were back in the dating pool or currently are (sorry), does a partner's 'body count' matter to you? Be honest, this is a safe space.

[Higgs]

Not really. So long as it doesn't go up after we were together. And I trusted that it wasn't.

What if it was triple digits?

[epilogue]

I don't think I would date a known, admitted murder.

Not really. I have one too, I suppose.

I'd like to think that would be true for me... but I doubt I would be that secure or be able to get past the idea that all of those people decided she was unworthy of pursuing a commitment with. I fully recognize how regressive that perspective is, grounded in patriarchal insecurity, but like was implied... at 100+ there is something going on there I just couldn't deal with.

Edit: Kinda of in this vein (NSFW Language!!!):

Spoiler: show

Shouldn't really matter? But I guess I'd likely question things that much more to myself, and that's hardly the ideal relationship.

Tough one.

Do not care. Is some chaste virgin going to choose me out of everyone in the world? No, I am not a first choice. I need a libertine to work their way through better options and eventually settle for me.

That's mostly a joke, but it is true that I am shy and if flirty people don't choose me I just stay alone. So flirty, and what can sometimes go with flirty, is a good quality.

Also, I really don't care

when you talk on the phone do you specifically hold it up to only one certain ear...right, left or comfortable with both...I can only do left ear

[tree_]

Same. Left ear only. We’re getting to know so much about each other

[bodysnatcher]

I can do both but my natural, most comfortable choice is right

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

Same

[bodysnatcher]

Speakerphone or let’s just talk later

I can’t do speakerphone. Unless I’m in the car. I do like using earbuds though

[spike]

Speakerphone or earbuds are a must if I’m calling Lenny’s mom.
