Oh, this changes EVERYTHING, Super. I also thought you were a girl, from the screen name… which is not to say all girls are superficial, but for a boy to use a label like that?)

#1 – Do you have any work experience? (And I don’t mean counslor in camp, or selling arrovos as a 15 year old). When I say work experience, I mean working in the outside world, on the road to making a living?

#2 – If you’re not working, are you at least in school (and I don’t mean BMG) where you are training for a careear that can enable you to earn a living that is going to support the family you will have sooner than you (or most boys) imagine?

If your answer to the above is not yet, I’m going to take a pass on this one. I’ts not the path I’m on (or promoting) so I’m not the one to be advising in this case.

And the reason I’m guessing that the answer is going to be no, not yet to both questions is beacuase if you had the exposure to the outside world that either work or school would give you, you’d know a whole lot more about what you need to be looking for in a spouse. Know why? Beacuse you’d know who YOU are, and that is 80% of the challenge. Once you know what your goal is, you can start planning on a travel partner.

Again, I could be wrong and you might be in your mid-20’s and working as a CPA. But the opening post and screen name are giving off mixed signals, so if I’m wrong, please say so and I’ll retract / rewrite the whole post

(but even if I’m wrong, my post still stands for any other bocher who reads this thread.. wanna play in the big sandbox? come prepared!)
