I KNOW there’s more important things goin’ on in the World–like always…but I know ME more than I know about anything else, so…I went out last night with the intention to play Music with somebody, anybody…I had two choices of places to go to accomplish that…I didn’t wanna go to Hershey’s because a certain young woman would probably be there…so I went to the OTHER place–and she was THERE…I managed to NOT let it throw me…In fact at the end of the night I told Cindy most of the truth…she may be able to deduce my feelings for her (tentative though they may be) if she dares…as far as I can tell, there haven’t been any repercussions yet…It’s always best to tell the truth, right? So here are the reasons why I will not be having a serious relationship with Cindy…or any other woman for that matter…In no particular order: <\/font><\/p>\n

1.I can’t afford a girlfriend…that may sound shallow, but I’m fairly traditional–ya take a girl out, the guy pays…this is not an ironclad rule of course…it’s 2015 after all…<\/font><\/p>\n

2. I don’t have a car of my own…and as good as she has been to me, I don’t think my housemate (my former Wife) would let me borrow her car to go on a date with another woman…<\/font><\/p>\n

3. I’m 60…Now it may be possible that 60 is the new 40, but I dunno if Cindy would date someone who may be a LOT older…<\/font><\/p>\n

4. She might like me “as a friend” (how I’ve always HATED that phrase) but that’s all–I think she already has a “significant other” anyway<\/font><\/p>\n

5. I’m not handsome; a subjective assessment I know, but still…I don’t mean to imply that Cindy is shallow (another subjective adjective) but for all I know she might be…I think it’s fair to say that everyone wants their girl (or boy) friend to be attractive–yet another<\/span> subjective term…<\/font><\/p>\n

6. and finally…I appears that, for several medical reasons, I’m not quite capable of “physical intimacy” and that<\/span> is usually something women enjoy…men too, of course, but it’s never been all that important to ME…<\/font><\/p>\n

I had lotsa fun playing my guitar last night, Cindy or no Cindy…and for THAT I’m grateful…The one night I hoped someone had shot some video and no one did…Actually Cindy usually takes photos, but not last night…and I was wearing my Panama hat…but as far as I can tell, \u00a0Life is Good…it could be better but it could be way worse…<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
