We are both in our late 40’s. I heard somewhere there are three things that make a man decide if he wanted to be with a woman; proximity, attraction, and then her fitting into his Social Circle. I’ve been involved with this guy for a while now who lives up more in the country. Just less than a half hour from me. He’s a typical country guy. Not like a big Trumper though. His wife died from alcoholism when he was 40 and he had to raise three small kids on his own. Right after she died he got involved with women he got engaged to one after the other but it didn’t work out. He told me they really just wanted to use him for money. And they were more concerned about their own kids than they were about his. He seemed really surprised when I told him I didn’t have children. And I asked him if that was an issue for him. He said it wasn’t. But I’m getting the feeling that he can’t relate to me because everyone in his Social Circle has so much baby mama drama. He told me he hates that about where he lives and doesn’t want to get involved with a woman who has children. But I feel like he’s kind of addicted to that drama. submitted by /u/nacho__mama
