Probably so.

Actually, she was 32, I about 52 at the time. And kids were not part of my agenda. Even a little bit. There is nothing in this genetic soup which mankind needs for the longer run.

As far as committment, I think that's reasonably accurate. After my last divorce I vowed I'd NEVER again live not wanting to go home. I haven't left relationships looking for the next one, though. I've left them and stayed alone in an effort to learn whatever lessons there may have been.

On my limited behalf there have been one or two women I might have married, they weren't interested at the time. We are still friends. None of them would have involved small children, though. They intrude so much upon one's consciousness. I'm too selfish. The little folks are far better off around someone who gives a damn for more than an hour or two at a time before smashing their thumb with a hammer in order to get some time for themselves.
