>>Afraid not. Not married, never been married. No kids (that I know of). For some odd reason, while I do have good friends who are male, most of my close friends seem to be female. Don't really know why, and I certainly didn't plan it that way. In any event, I like my life. In blunt terms, the reason why I've never married is pure unadulterated selfishness. As I said, I like my life, and I would not like to compromise it, and I know that anyone who goes into a marriage thinking they don't have to compromise, is a fool. Of course, I still have to make compromises for friends, but it's not an every day, day in, day out sort of situation. That would make me crazy.

The truth is that I don't honestly know if that's the reason. Like I said, I never planned it that way. It just seems to be like that. All my life I've had good friends of both genders, but for whatever reason, more have been female than male. You may be right, but I've honestly never tried to analyse it.
