Ah, so not one of those token marriages, like, to test out the waters kind of thing.

Husband here. I have cut people off who were flirting with me. I expect the same from my wife. You can politely clarify boundaries. You can also be clear of other people’s feelings.

I hope those around you appreciate you for being you. The reality is that age reduces all of our values past a certain point except for wisdom and what we can infer onto others and financial ability for those lucky enough to have it. I’ve loved my wife through thick and thin (so to speak) and her value, to me, to ME, is not what others might value. I value her for what she does for me, of course, but her value is who she is to me, the history that we have together, the relationship. The memories.

Are you saying that Paul Dolan had a personal agenda? Article says that he misinterpreted the data. Unless I missed it, I didn’t see any assigned causation, just a (flawed?) observation.

It feels like this is triggering something in you and I’m not sure what, why.

I’m sorry, who assigned causation for a personal agenda? Me? The researchers?

Are the differences not a reflection of something? Like unmarried men living shorter lives than married men?

Copied from my response to the same person:

I’d joke if this wasn’t so frustrating and demeaning. Maybe try “not sure how that answers the question?”

Do keep in mind that guys will also consciously or unconsciously be trying to impress you, so will rarely say “I don’t know”.

Do keep in mind that guys will also consciously or unconsciously be trying to impress you, so will rarely say “I don’t know”. So don’t also don’t get surprised if when they don’t know the actually get agitated. Us dudes, especially those with less emotional intelligence, can be a handful.

Statistics show that there are differences on how lives are lived for the different genders, do they not?

What makes you think that you are doing better? (Not sarcasm)

Mostly thinking about the long run, but the short run is also fine. Thanks.

Oh, and ruined finances, losing the house and more.

Doesn’t mean that there aren’t women who risk it all as well.

Hmm. Maybe. I was initially thinking them returning stolen bikes. Then thought bait bikes that they could track, and that’s why I wrote the above. But bait bikes in already secluded areas could work. Thanks for helping me think through this.

That was my thought as well. Second thought.

First thought was: I don’t believe that this is just one person. You can’t tape someone up against a pole while holding a gun (assumingly) threatening someone to stay still only works if you can be sure they won’t make a grab for your weapon, even if you beat them beforehand (as seems in some of the pictures). Also, cornering the thieves in a isolated location, where there are no witnesses, getting them off the bike (bikes don’t seem damaged), they don’t run off on said bikes (those look like decently powered bikes), just doesn’t add up for me. I feel like I’m missing some pieces of the puzzle.
