Would you legitimately believe if a man told you he was voluntarily celebate for a decade? If not, why not?

Been 10 years and a pandemic, should this 5 get back to dating? Let's start shallow and get deeper with later questions... expecting a lot of harassment, but here we go :o

Right girl would be like 🎉. Not a Dawg lifting his leg up on anything coming along the way…. or chasing the Kitty 🐈‍⬛ Kats down the alleys.

Just someone thinking that way will get the right one hot. No STDs either…as long as personal finances together someone going to marry this guy. Meetup Meat Market may be a good resource for interest and age specific

I'd believe it. It's not unusual.

There is way too much social pressure to have sex. Some people (probably with high libido) can't imagine anyone not wanting sex all the time. Not everyone needs or wants to get laid all the time.

[Asker]

Well said and spot on

[LazerBean]

I think it would just depend on how I perceived the guy and his values personality. Lots of guys I would believe, and lots of guys I definitely would not.

[Asker]

That makes sense, I am not a widower. Involuntary celebacy seems off to me, more a matter of limitations being imposed by the person claiming to be celebate without a choice. But I also know and have been that guy in my youth. I found dating got better around 25, coincidentally, after coming home from school and something for myself instead of wasting time in bars as a young 20 something, seeking validation from my peers.

Yes, I believe certain people you can just tell

[Asker]

For sure, I think it is distinguishable. My grandpa George was a lifelong bachelor, ladies would nit stop harassing him my whole life to shack up. But he was at his best alone. Had a Forest Gump of a life I never believed until his memorial. The attendance, history and memories were a stretch of the imagination without looking on his accomplishments all in display. I remembered that when it was tough being alone but I was attending to life.

Appreciate a guys imput, glad I chose that option.

[Iron_Man]

That’s awesome

[Anonymous]

Yeah. Because just because he said it was voluntary doesn't mean that's reality.

[Asker]

A fair point. I would also make that argument to incels.

Was that supposed to be coherent? Perhaps a complete sentence would help you express your opinion instead of being owned by it.

[Opinion Owner]

what?

[Asker]

What?

[In_Trance]

Nope

Your perogative. I live in a very remote region, dealt with life threatening illness for myself and a sibling and managed to pay off students loans, keep my home after a separation and progress in a career. Summer trysts, but nothing worth pursuing, as mutually condcluded most times. Fast forward throughba pandemic amd its been 10 years since my last serious relationship. There is more to life than the pursuit of sex, sometimes overwhelmingly so. My brother is alive today akd so am I, he surviving reconstructive surgery on a kidney and I surgery to my heart for genetic arythmia. A choice I would make again, even if I did lose most of my 30s hunkering down. Did you answer the rest of your datijg questions with such poise I wonder?

I guess haughty looking gingers get away with more than the average bear. Thanks for the imput sugar. People like you is what made it easy.
