the bottom line is "the final decision", you'll have to make, on your own, it's okay to get some feedback, get other opinions, but at the end of the day.. the choice is yours, you're stuck with me, choose wisely 👌

I did that once when I was a younger man. At the risk of sounding conceited I was a very good looking young man. Funny thing is back then I didn't think so. It is only as I'ved aged I look at old pictures and see myself through different eyes. Perhaps it made me a better person not knowing. Well anyway, my shameful story is I dated this one young woman who most would consider unattractive. But she had something, something I saw in her that I was attracted to. But then the talk started in our "community". "What is wrong with him?" "Doesn't know he know most of these girls blah blah blah" Our community is relatively small. The gossip got back to me, my family members. And I'm ashamed to say I folded to peer pressure. It more than likely would have not lasted long anyway, but I ended for the wrong reason.
