Looks like this thread is being put to good use. I just thought I would address the comments about fears I might have of H finding a true soulmate. I don't so much fear it as I wouldn't be suprised if it happened. H and I primarily connect through our core values, our understanding of work, responsibility, family and our compatibility around daily life. Well, it isn't exactly a barn burner.
I have bought H Star Trek and other things he likes that I am not partial to and I even sit down and watch them with him. To top it off I even ask questions about the plot, how it connects to past episodes, the books etc... Luckily, we both enjoy football. He appreciates that I don't give him any guff about things he likes that I don't care much about and he refrains from laughing at my shelf of self help books, my occasional forays into artistic pursuits (I'm not artistic but like to develop my right brain, pursuit of yoga and weight training instead of all that cardio and my whole foods/natural style of eating. All in all, not a bad recipe for day to day marriage.
Now, if H were to meet an attractive woman who loves Ohio State Football, Star Trek, triathlons, raising umpteen children (some your own, some not), is socially moderate but politically conservative, Catholic, who doesn't eat vegetables, drinks vodka/cranberry and tropical drinks but no wine or beer, loves the beach, is well educated and earns a nice living - he might just f*ck the crap out of her daily and twice on Sunday. Know anyone?
