I’m a 4 year widower single parent to three (18+ now, thankfully) who works 50+ hours a week.
I’m lonely, because while I would welcome female companionship, I don’t want to have to “check in” when I leave for work, once during the day, and then when I get home before bed.
I don’t want the emotional manipulation that goes on these days.
I don’t want to be the sole provider - I already am to a family of 7, including my 79 year old dad.
I have friends that I’ve known since 1984 (and earlier, even), but they don’t know all my struggles, either.
My Gen-X peers just suck it up, deal with it, and go about another crappy day.
West Texas now producing more oil & gas than Saudi Arabia & Russia… That means more export markets for Texas Oil & Gas if DOD, State & CIA can create captive markets abroad. This is Bush/Cheney wing of GOP’s vision.
Not if Biden won’t let “them” export it. Which is what is happening. Biden is KILLING AMERICANS.
