We are in the same exact place inside. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I don't have a divorce or a child or anything hanging over me like that. How old are you?

I'm not worried about meeting women at all, I meet them all the time without putting in much effort. I'm just not sold on the idea of a wife and kids anymore, I used to think I 'had to' have that to be complete. I'm

What other solution do they have? Social media decimated their business model. Remember all the layoffs over the last decade?

This is very true. How do you think this problem could be fixed?

I used one for a month and some change during a long road trip. It helped me avoid smoking around the campfire, something my friend and I would do for 'old time's sake'. I'm glad I didn't use it for a long time. I h
