    Right now I've - resigned is the wrong word - realized that I'll probably be in and out of long-term relationships for the rest of my life. Maybe 10-year relationships, maybe 1 year or 20-years if I am lucky. But I have never once dated someone I did not get bored of, eventually. Someone who I eventually no longer wanted to be with. Someone who eventually no longer turned me on or excited me.

Me too, and for a while I semi-sort of wondered if there was something wrong with me emotionally when I bothered to think about it all. I have a different understanding now, but it's still sad.

Tell you what, let's date. We'll get tired of each other in half the time we normally get tired of other people.

Our relationship will last the span of approximately one Hubski meetup!
