    If I feel that most people are evil or vile at heart...

    does that mean that the problem lies with me? One chooses what type of people gravitate towards them. If my mental outlook is to look out or take precautions because I might get hurt or stolen. Does this mean that I would do the same or worse to people if given the chance? This last...

    As a Middle Aged Man, the single's in my age region are...

    Being single is too much hard work... Not in keeping shape, being polite, and being happy in myself now but the issues that are presented so early on. Most who have adequate social and life skills are married. The ones that are divorced or single (myself included) have issues that come out...
