Since my joining in February 2012 I'm curious as to how many of you have found your better half? I know HOF has attempted to do so which unfortunately did not work out but I'm sure he's grown from the experience. If you have found a mate do you still engage in the hobby?

I had a soul mate. It was a great relationship -- she was like a best friend. But after about 10 years we slowly drifted apart. We still get along, as best as people can in these circumstances, but are no longer together. I have not been in a long-term relationship for over a year since. I am very hesitant to remarry.
I think if I was in a serious relationship it would be difficult to hobby unless the other person was ok with an open relationship.

A true soul mate would be a women who let her man see other women if that was his thing. A true soul mate would be a man who stopped hobbying because he knew it was not what his woman liked.
A true soul mate gives love unconditional and therefore is completely unrelated to this hobby.

Since you joined in February 2012 I have found quite a few Soul Mates, Baz.
Thanks for asking. Care to know how many I found before you joined? :biggrin2:

What she said.
That's a hot hot picture :good:
I disagree with your first statement. Loving someone unconditionally is not the same thing as imposing restrictions. I may detest the fact that my partner smokes cigarettes and want to discourage her from the same, but it doesn't mean that I don't love her.
I absolutely agree with your second statement. If anyone has every been madly in love, they would know that polygamy isn't a natural state.

I on the other hand believe ALL love is conditional, it has to be. Love is the admiration of a persons virtue and value system when it coincides and compliments ones own personal virtues and values. If a person were to take on an entirely different belief system, it would stand to reason the love would cease.
Most extreme case ever, but to make a point... Man loves woman and everything is cool. Woman decides to sleep with his brother on a continual basis, maybe his father on weekends, and blow his buddies while he is at work. He is still supposed to love without condition even though every other part of the relationship is great? I don't think so.
I know who my soul mate is, we were best friends. Unfortunately she had a boyfriend and I had a girlfriend. After years went by we drifted apart (one of my few regrets in life). Sometimes I still dream about her at night. If I ever meet her again I will instantly drop to one knee and ask her to marry me.
With all my heart and soul I still miss you Brenda. :Crying/:

Rawd mentioned that polygamy is not a natural state. I will agree. I will disagree, however, that multiple, ethical, sustainable relationships are not a natural state. There are many studies that support my statement, not the least which the percentage of divorces in the Western World (50%). The book [LINK=https://www.sexatdawn.com]Sex at Dawn[/LINK] goes in depth into the theory that monogamy is a social construct, derived from the concept of property, which isn't present in hunter/gatherer societies, and forms of mutiple partnerships in various parts of the world still exist. In this country alone, the number of people coming out as polyarmorous is growing day by day, and the Candadian Polyamory Society was granted intervener status in the Bountyful case in BC last year. As for me, as much as I adore my GF, and delight in spending every day with her, I have, currently, one more person that I can honestly say that I am in love with. It doesn't mean I love either of them any less, just that I love them for different reasons. My emotional and sexual attachement to either of them, doesn't preclude my desire to see escorts, either. To me, it's apples and oranges: delicious, satisfying, with juices flying everywhere

I like apples and oranges as well as peaches, nectarines, grapes, plums and watermelons.
I do too but my watermelons has to be seedless. As for a soul mate, she better have a great ass or I don't want her.

I'm sorry Art but hired soul mates do not count.

True, people can grow apart or fall deeper in love but it is worth trying to find love don't you agree Hooked?
