Hollowman, I agree with Ninja. Do what feels right. Forget what society tells you to do.

Besides, if I had remained single I wouldn't be having the troubles I shared in my intoduction, "New Guy in Big Trouble needs Guidance!"

I had been single for 40+ years and felt the same way as you. Looking back, it had it's advantages: Whatever was going on in my life, good bad or indifferent, I was responsible - and I only had myself to answer to and answer for.

Now I am responsible for two kids, a host of financial burdens, and I have to do it alone because my wife fell prey to drug addiction and I cannot rely on her anymore. It's just me.

You're fine, Hollowman, and in good company here!

John
