Good reply Dolly.

I dated a very wealthy man a couple years ago. He wanted to marry...BUT he was already married to his business and NASDAQ.

He had lots of cool toys I could have played with to keep me occupied for awhile, but I'm afraid I'd have lost who I was (and what he thought he wanted in me)...in the process. I would be lying if I said I wasn't tempted a little bit...for who doesn't like to toy with the thought of never wanting for anything again? :)

He, my family and friends thought I was NUTZ for breaking it off.....but they didn't see what I did. Everything was about keeping up appearances and living in some sort of vacuum....treating others that are less fortunate, as "non-beings". (goes against my nursing concepts)

My thoughts when I walked away....."For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world.....but lose his own soul?"
