So on the 16 the of Nevuary as they say, that's when we'll take a weekend getaway. In other words ain't ever gonna happen. I took vacations once, yea that's one of those things that work better when you have both money and are single of course!
    I think you and your boyf ought to just move out of LA and go somewhere totally new and start over. If you are miserable all the time there, what is the point?

    Protect her health now or when it becomes relevant. Since you every month or so bemoan your singlehood and swear off trying to find someone including on dating sites only to land up a few weeks later with someone else, use condoms. Even if not all these relationships are carnal enough are that you could transmit an STD even if you are asymptomatic.

    Since you don't want kids get a vasectomy.

    She and I have both been tested for STDs and are thus far healthy. We are monogamous. And she uses a form of birth control that I administer to her.

    So we are being careful. She is also rapidly approaching the age where pregnancy is a non-issue, really.

    I am not getting a v-sec.


    Okay, what else must I do to prove I am a keeper.

    There are post-menopausal women who have given birth including one in England.

    There are 23 year old women who are totally infertile.

    You know it is extremely unlikely that a woman will get pregnant after menopause. So get back to what hoops I need to jump through to prove I am a keeper.

    It is not hoops to jump through and check off a list as done. It is a mindset of unselfishness, sacrifice and responsibility. For example, I am responsible for my students loans, not the taxpayer. And so you can trust me to be financially responsible with your beloved family member. If we get married or sign a lease together et cetera and things don't work out I am not going to stick her with my debts even if legally I can.

    What makes you think I am not unselfish? What makes you think I am not making sacrifices? And what makes you think I am not responsible?

    You seem to be implying a lot abut my character, which seems rather unfounded.

    No one but me can ever legally become responsible for my student loans. If I married someone my loans still remain mine and fully in my name.

    She owns a home (has a mortgage with the bank). So we'd not likely sign a lease any time soon.

    She is bearing the risks of the birth control side effects.

    Condoms and vasectomies do not have these side effects. Condoms also protect against viruses like HPV which men are generally not tested for, and which can cause cervical cancer. I don't see one shred of unselfishness here. Quite the opposite. But then again you have stated before that you see women of a certain age as desperate to marry, and so think there is a power imbalance that you can exploit.

    The debts I was referring to are ones you might incur jointly, not ones you have already, and which she could be stuck with if you don't pay.
