I know your type. With your slick pick up lines and your sexy white jumpsuit. You're all alike.

NO.
Interesting question. I happened to watch Oprah one day (yes, yes, I admit... doesn't mean I'm liking her and all....but she covers good topics....blah, blah). Anywho, she must have seen some counselor in her past that said:
I paraphase to the best of my ability (don't expect much):
People marry a person that fills a void that we did not get from childhood, so we actually marry our opposites and then we never take care of that problem ourselves because our spouses cannot cure what is wrong.
For instance. I never had any parental guidance, feedback, or nurturing growing up. My DH is very controlling, things have to be his way, and our marriage worked for so long because he made the decisions and I helped carry them out. If you hear him talk about his childhood he will say "I was the parent of my house by 12 years old".
This counselor says at some point marriage will fall apart if we don't heal our childhood. Our fights usually are
Me: "it's always your way, why bother asking my opinion"
Him" "just make a decision!!! you are so wishy-washy. Gain some confidence"

Very interesting. I'll have to think about that. (Not that Oprah was actually discussing something pertinent, but the other part)

Yes, but then I'd have to break up with me....and wouldn't that mean I'd have a "split" personality.

I "know" a female version of you. She decided not to have kids because it wouldn't be fair for them to match her life.
