As far as relationships are concerned, I am quite traditional & conservative and I do not entertain any thoughts whatsoever of cheating.
So men like me may be rare, but we do exist.  |
That sounds so beautiful.
And, tragic at the same time
"men like me may be rare". I sure hope not. But, what if what you say is true? What does that say about the entire institution of monogamy as a social practice? If you attest yourself that men like you are rare, that is not encouraging for people who still want and expect a monogamous relationship.
I'm not necessarily looking to change my desire for a monogamous relationship, but I do wonder if it's realistic?
