Thank you for your on point analysis of crappy mormon dating.

And as we've been told no girl wants to marry a dude who can't support themselves and someone else. However, I think this is an archaic way of thinking because I hate my job and I hate school but I love dating girls.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Long story short, I will throw the pretense of marriage out the door, and I am available, who wants to go out? More than once? It doesn't have to be forever, or does it?
