Are you single, married, or do you have a gf/bf?

[Moonbear]

I always thought that people like someone who is similar to them.

Having different careers doesn't mean you're dissimilar. Your career isn't your personality. On the other hand, being TOO much alike doesn't necessarily work either...I'd go insane living with someone just like me! It's much better to find someone similar in the ways you like them to be similar, and different in the ways you need them to be different. In other words, it's best to be complementary.

Either you're a dirty old man or your wife's the queen of cougars...

Both.

 

[DaveC426913]

Both.

Cougars rock. My group of 8 friends just realized that in all 4 couples, the women are older than the men. We're thinking of getting tattoos.

That's a mighty nice looking graphic there, Dave. It's nice to see when someone manages to draw a cat without making it look cheesy.
By the way, I was 49 when W and I met.

I assume you are in physics? Does that work well? Two people with entirely different 'brain structures'? Maybe a bit too different for each other? I always thought that people like someone who is similar to them.

Well, I'm interested in languages, and am semi-fluent in German. And we both like to travel and enjoy classical music. So we put up with each other's eccentricities, including my tendency to "see physics" in all sorts of places, and her urge to dive into every thrift shop we pass.

Uh thanks. I Googled it with my own two hands...

There is just no end to your talent.

I guarantee that you'll find true love here ---

--there are a lot of single women here that will pounce on you once they know you are single!

I've been here 5 years and no one has pounced on me.

I always thought Desiree was a girl's name.

well, you're not a single male----maybe that's the trouble

(see, Desiree, I told you that they'd start coming out of the woodwork)

 

[Kurdt]

Yes I thought Desiree was a girl. Perhaps its part of a cunning plan. I see that over 50% of physics forums people are single.

Nobody will pounce on you Evo because they all know how fragile you are!

Oh, ok, now I feel better.

Thanks to humanino, I just found out that a physicist whom I thought was a she is actually a he.

what?--maybe not good enough medical for 'damage to pouncee', too?

I have a friend in sales who swears that when he wears his wedding band, he gets hit on WAY more than when he doesn't. I can't corroborate this, since I never had a wedding band. For many years, I worked with my hands and played guitar professionally on weekends, and wearing rings is a sure way to increase your risk of injury to your fingers. No thanks.

 

[rootX]

Single and don't have any hope for getting a girl :)

 

[Kurdt]

Eek! Three posts in a minute. I just meant we all care about damaging Evo so much that we wouldn't pounce. If we pounced you'd probably fall over and break something.

Would that be an Italian Andrea George?

That is a man who looks nothing like his name!

Desiree is the girl I once fell in love with.

I was much older than you are now when I got married.

Looks like Mr Christian has an interesting assortment or papers.

[mjolnir80]

single for me

 

[BryanP]

Girlfriend of 1 year and 2 months.

 

[ekrim]

What sort of engineer would I be if I had a girlfriend?

 

[proton]

i'm 21 years old, virgin, never kissed a girl, never been on a date, never had a gf, and feel no shame to it!

 

[binzing]

About to go mad...like seriously insane...

Could be a better one, or could be worse? I don't think it'd matter. You may not be able to do much more work (if you're talking about a /demanding/ girlfriend... but I mean, again, that's a "demanding" gf), but it doesn't necessarily mean the quality of work you do will be degrading.
