Well not really expecting anything, just seeing what's here... but yeah 2 months isn't long enough as I've found out.
Was kidding.
We all settle.. for the reasons you stated. The perfect person doesn't exist.
I say date because eventually you might start caring about someone you never would have considered just based on the superficial criteria you went into it with.
My truth.
My wife is full of life, beautiful, caring, loves me dearly... all the things one would hope for..
Still, if we were ever done, for whatever reason, I'd be single forever. I've been happy to compromise my time, feelings, and what I want to do when I want to do it for almost 20 years.
But I wouldn't do it going forward if given a choice. Would spend my time on my kids and stuff I want to do, only.

It IS a string of honest expressions ....
I never thought I'd want to be single for life, ... but after this trip I'm starting to see it. After disappointing dates after disappointing dates ... compromises after compromises... many times on this trip I long for free days where I can just spend time by myself and do stuff I really enjoy.
Also, wouldn't it be better to find a woman in NZ than prostitute-infested Thailand?
I mean, it's not like it's called "marriage material" it's called Bangkok.
I hate to go full Yoda on ya.. but I don't believe in finding true love when you're in pursuit of it.
Let it go. And let it show up unexpectedly.

I feel you on this. The relationship I'm in right now will be the one that I give !00% to. If it were to go belly-up, then I'd also divorce the idea of this kind of relationship. Hopefully I it works out, though. And hopefully there's at least one kid.... because even if we were to split, I know she'd always be an excellent mother and that any kid would be lucky to inherit whatever genes and charms they got from her.
I'm moving to Bkk in 2 years, no use finding someone in NZ who wouldn't want to re-locate ...
