Day 4--What I Want

I'm on Day 4 of my break up. Feel perfectly fine. Been staying busy. My brother and my friends have heard my whining, but they can't fault my stance.

I don't want to be a lifelong bachelor. I just read a story of a guy that died and will be buried in a potter's field in New York because he has no family contacts. He died alone and unloved. I may not want to admit it, but I know no wife or children are going to miss me when I croak.

What I want is simple. I want a woman who will not cheat on me or bring me down financially. That's it. I could put a ring on that finger. But that woman is rare. She doesn't have to be rich. She doesn't have to be a supermodel. I can do my own cooking and cleaning. I am a bachelor after all.

I want a woman who is like me. She is faithful. She likes to work. She makes her own money. That's what I want. I want character. This is because I am assuming risk. I'm the one who is going to eat it in a divorce court. Women don't get this.

I would rather remain single than go through this bullshit. Trust me, being single is Plan B for my life. That is because Plan A is a pipe dream. If a woman wants me to put a ring on her finger, she has to get her shit together. Otherwise, no deal.
