The dance really should really be inside incase of in-climate weather. Oh an open bar too.

If you read the books by Fritz Springmeier and the book "Thanks for the Memories" by Brice Taylor (which you can find online) and watch Kay Grigg's videos on You Tube, you might understand why most victims never report incidents, why they may never talk about them until decades later and why they might not even remember them until decades later. However, people could never really understand or imagine what they are like unless they have experienced them firsthand and people should never have to have these experiences firsthand to know that they are real and they are widespread. The amount of free will that people in Hollywood have is not what outsiders think. Ignorance of self defense is the apex of foolishness and the esoteric tarot didn't show the archetypal human as the traveling fool on the edge of a cliff for no reason.

Some folks don't have to read books.. including men.. its not a gender exclusive thing, contrary to popular belief.

Not to make light of the serious post above, but to help keep on topic, many Hollywood folks own boats.

Exactly. Kay Griggs' videos explain how Navy SEALs actually get there.

Boats are great. A great thing to share with others. Frankly, I feel like I'm missing out on a week of my life when making a single handed passage. I've been on boats continuously for 20 years. The actual boating is nice, but not all that thrilling. I'm 42. 25-30 year old women are literally flocking. This can't last long.

I keep blowing it with them because I don't have a good setup... be it to go to their area or to have them live with me. (no car... full time liveaboard)

I think you were right that my priorities were out of whack. Boat was started during my marriage, so it has been more than confusing to transition to being single mid build. The ex and i made a good living doing charters.

Make no mistake about $$$$ though. I'm just the slightly older guy that younger wkmen gravitate to. Even my ex wife was 10 years younger. Always bern the case. I'm not buying anyone's affection.
see, here's the thing with those relationships.... your and her needs and wants tend to shift further and furher apart as you grow older....
think of what you want to do in your life now, at 42.... then think what that might be at 57 ? i guarantee you it changes.... now, think of what the woman might want at 47....

so now you are, 15 years down the road, in a relationship with a woman that wants genuinely different things than you do..... in addition that woman now is no nubile young hottie anymore either.... result: your next divorce / heartbreak / financial drain......

if you keep looking for the young hotties my gues is that catamaran never gets finished.... ;-)
