I have never married and have no kids. I was in a relationship for almost 9 years starting at 19 in 1998. The first 5 years were OK. Then she wanted to go Salsa dancing... I don't like to dance; I drum. Anyway she later dumped me (after falling for the new guy she COULD control) for a loser from the Salsa classes with resources who worked at JPL. I moved to the Bay Area from L.A. and met an abusive drunk girl. She actually hurt me more than the LTR. I realized that I could do better just living for myself with all my talents and drive for greatness. Now I have a successful woodworking company and I can pursue interesting hobbies that make me feel alive.
