That's the truth! If you have small kids and it gets quiet... You better run, not walk to find out what is going on. One minute they're playing Legos and Barbies, then the next minute not only is your bathroom on fire, but your hair is too.

I'm tall, muscular, low bf, and good looking, but it takes more then that to keep a girlfriend. I go out for a lay here and there but to me it's just hormones and besides the point. I can't stand small talk and don't earn enoufh to keep a woman interested. Besides, most people bore me to death. I used to believe I wanted a LTR, but after several crash and burns I'm happily single and fairly dissocial.
Not sure there's much wrong with this. I'm in my 30s and quit drinking and have tried most everything else worth while. I see the same boring things occupied by dull pwrsonalities and would rather tech out online and build up my skillz and monies nerding out.

money is only a small part of it...if you are good in bed a woman will keep coming back no matter how much money you have in the bank
I prefer to be alone most of the time. That being said, I am married (almost 18 years, with a daughter). While I love them, there are a lot of times I relish when they are both gone and I can be alone. Truly alone. Not just alone in the room. I know that sounds weird and I haven't met many people like me as most prefer to be surrounded by other people almost constantly. I hate huge family get togethers, crowds, etc. I think I should have been a hermit.
But I am alone when my family is not here, because I choose to be. I am not socially inept or anything. I find that a lot of personal friendships require a lot more effort than I am will to expend.

Then there's the 3rd category, "ambiverts".
I have chunks where I get energized from being sociable, and can't get enough, but also have chunks where I must remain in the man-cave for a while.
Each part can last from a few days to a few weeks.
I'm like this with everything. No real patterns of sleep, work, libido, or anything. Sometimes complete horn-dog for a few days to a few weeks, then a bit less so for same duration.
I think it's cyclothymia. Bipolar lite. Whatever it is, I'd have it no other way.
