I once dated a woman with schizophrenia whose VW Beetle smelt like an ashtray. I didn't care. She was very nice to me.


Sounds like a keeper.

Sort of a sad story. I met her the Summer before I was to return to undergraduate school in another state. I went to my first Mensa meeting, she was also there for what was her first meeting. She had also just moved to the area. She approached me at the meeting, invited me to her apartment, then invited me to have sex with her once there. She was 6 years older (I was 22). I continued to date her, but I still left for school but saw her on occasion. I think it was some time before Christmas that she came to think that I'd never want to be her life partner that she went back to her home town. I didn't beg her to come back. I didn't know how to feel at the time but didn't feel obligated I guess become the whole relationship was her doing. At that age I wasn't ready to commit to someone that much older unless I was head over heels in love with that person.

I'm not proud of all this but that's what happened.

Depends on the upkeep, my car is the reason I had an interview cancelled. Some complete KAREN took a picture of my car and because it was messy and I had a case of beer in there I recently bought. This Karen showed the interviewer and also said they "saw" me drinking in the parking lot.

For a kick off I get mixed up with left and right
And for another thing I get mixed up at traffic lights between stop and go

My head gets things upside down

Not so old post, because it is still this year. I just wanted to say mixed up with left and right, you have something in common with James May.
As for the Stop and Go lights? Now I'm worried for you.

Yes. A car can make someone attractive, but I feel it is an superficial attractiveness.
There may be more too it.

To the opposite sex? Yes, an expensive car is a symbol and recognition that you may be a good provider. Which is totally valid. When looked at the animal kingdom, flaunting ones "wealth" is indeed sometimes crucial to the mating process for example


Just like Jeffery Epstein. Just another way of looking at it, Jamie0.0.

A car or a beautiful face does not make a kind, good, or giving person.

We cannot help what we are attracted to, but it doesn't mean compatibility.

Material things do not make people attractive. A good personality makes a person attractive.
