The crazy-high standards other women have actually sort of make me feel bad. Like, my standards were too low and I just married well by happy accident, or something. I was just like, yay, he's cute and fun and smart and he likes to go to church and eat Indian food and go on walks. 🥰 Like, that seemed like a really good deal. 🤷♀️ Lots of guys don't like Indian food. Few know this. nostr:nevent1qyd8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn5dpjhxctdv43kzapwd9hj7qgcwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxvmt59emkj73wvf5h5tcpzdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujue3h0ghxjme0qqsqu8arxappckdeunc9yatpgqfed3w25h0fply3fp0vgxxn97s725q7wmdeg
Yeah, crazy. I actually had taken a month-long Indian cooking course and was totally geeking out on cooking Indian food, but guys always wanted to take me out for dinner. But my husband came over on our second date and I cooked a whole table full of Indian food and he ate it all up. And I still cook for him and he still eats it up. 😆 I love to cook.
Yeah, we just heard about two other couples splitting up (because two of the spouses cheated with each other), that we've known for decades and who seemed happy, and it's just like Dispatch from Bizarro World. I don't get why people do this. Why don't they take up knitting or learn to code, or jogging or something? It's like they never grow up.
You have to cook it, yourself, and add spice at table. Like have a really spicy relish or chutney they can add.

I'm constantly astounded by how many people can't cook. Amazing. How is that even a thing?
Nothing like a good fish curry. I'm also an eggplant curry fan. Eat it a lot during Lent.
I spend hours every day cooking and doing dishes. Our whole family life revolves around the kitchen.
The problem men face is the tight competition for women who don't place financial worth as a high requirement. Most men want a woman like that, but they're rare and picky in other ways.
Like, if she doesn't care about money, she must care about something else.
Are you talking about wives?
I'm starting to feel sorta old, as I don't remember girlfriends being in a position to demand anything. 😂 I can't keep up.
Now I'm curious what they're asking for and why? Do they want flowers or a Corvette?
Ha ha bizarre. But why would you waste any time on someone you don't love? Seems rather pointless and confusing.
🫂 I'm glad.
💯
I'm an Army brat. 🤷♀️

i'm a descendant of refugees and slave culture... you don't have to be in a war to have your life turned upside down by it, even a generation later my grandfather was a conscientious objector, member of a pacifist religion, he worked in military hospitals instead of as a soldier and that's how he met my grandma, who was the child of a concubine, and of course you can imagine this kind of toxic culture comes to an end and the muslims of indonesia rose up against the dutch and so they ended up in australia... and my parents met due to both of them working a hospital related to said pacifist religion, and the residues of that toxic culture of slavery persisted with my father who got some very strange ideas about how to treat everyone in the house including twisted sexual notions and calculating physical and psychological abuse all of these things trace back to psychopaths stirring up shit and using violence against people, it's almost primordial to the forces that bring about war
