Starbuck - Ouch.. sexual harassment is nasty when it happends to guys. For women though it gets called 90% of the time on people who don't deserve it. (Although that 10% totally do.. freakin assholes). You have my condolences on the job and embarrasment I am sure you endured.
Oh I'm sure they thought I deserved it. After all I'm a man.

Starbuck- Your HOW old?!?! Damn you have an amazing body for your age? You mentioned your wife was very successful... is she your sugar momma and you use that extra time to work out? Damn. (I swear I am not gay lol... just know a nice chest when I see it. lol... .. . craps.)
Thanks for the kind words. Not offended in the least.
I'm 46.
I'm a former Marine and let's just say I've done a lot of push ups in addition to manual labor. Still do. No body builder I just like to stay in decent shape. I was also an extreme outdoor athlete in my mid to late 20's (rock climbing, surfing, wilderness backpacking, etc..). I still do some of that stuff but not as much as I used too. When I hit about 30 I needed to get serious about getting a life and making a living. Unfortunately being a legend in your own mind doesn't pay the bills.
I'm fortunate I was blessed with fairly decent genetics for that sort of thing as well. I'm 6'0 tall so I hide extra weight well. Right now I weigh about 185 lbs, but 175 would probably be closer to my ideal. Heck nobodies perfect.
Sugar momma wouldn't really be an accurate description. We both pull our weight in different ways. A few years ago I designed and built her a log house out in the woods. I maintain it, she drives up and enjoys the fruits of our labor, etc.. and gives me a credit card and an allowance. I do a few other things for extra cash, but nothing that even compares to what she brings in. We have no children, just a cat.
She has a very good job, with a very good company. And she has an advanced degree. Me? I got cowboy boots, a nail apron, a hammer, a commercial drivers license, etc... None of which is worth a whole lot in this crazy assed upside down society.
While we were building our log house one Christmas I asked her to buy me a bobcat to do some landscaping. She took me by Home Depot one weekend and bought me a wheelbarrow and a shovel instead. I was tickled pink.

Reminded me of my parents.
I haven't always had it made. In fact up until I was about 36 I was been mostly screwed around in one form or another. Employment wise, etc.. Heck I was a long haul truck driver for 10 years and didn't have the time or the money to date. Nothing in common with women other than going to a bar. It was incredibly FU. Met my wife in the personal ads when I finally landed a semi local job.
Women, especially of the younger variety? Yeah they just don't get it. They think all guys are loaded, make six figures a year, work in an office and can provide them a life better than daddy. Doesn't go over too well when reality rears it's ugly head and she find out you can provide her the life of Paris Hilton.
Look man I live in the bible belt. Jim Baker country. I can't describe what some social circles are like down here (oh you're in Alabama you know). Let's just say they're a little different. And was never one to fit in with that crowd. Besides being an only child, I had to learn to love my own company a lot anyways.

As to the Meeting a woman half-way... Yeah we aren't that lucky (Or atleast I am not.) There version of halfway is generally "If he gets me into bed I will moan at him." One day I will become a great cult leader and I will form my society around the premise of "Men are the Prize... women must seduce." And God will say "It is good." or something. And it will be spectacular! Much like oreos with milk... or cocoa-crispies with heave cream instead of milk.
