I think they never really wanted to leave home at all and just make excuses why nothing is ever just right for them "out there".
I think you got something there, rH.
Until they quit searching for fulfillment "out there", they'll never find it. Not for long anyways.

Thanks for the reminder, Cadet.
On the other hand, there's a whole slew of people (some with credentials) who don't believe any of that, and think there's no such thing as MLC. It does make me wonder sometimes.
Sometimes relationship talks are unavoidable... they bring it up. Then too, if I'm beginning to tire of waiting, and want to let her know, what do you suppose I'm going to talk about?
Last night, after 4 nights away W came got in at 9pm, we talked for about 30 minutes. Tonight, she went out straight from work with her friends, won't be home till 11 or 12. We might talk for a few minutes, then she'll shower and go to her bed. I surely don't need this.
I'm definitely not an exciting option right now. I do wonder what the hell is so exciting "out there".
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
