		<description>I think you should practice bowing. Handshakes, kisses..so anti-sanitary, and in such weather, too!</description>

		<description>I guess it depends on how well you know the person.  But if it's someone I don't already have a solid friendship with trying to kiss me on the first date - he had better be aiming his lips at my ass... I'd much prefer the handshake!</description>

		<description>This post was so honest, especially in the ambiguity. I need to backread, but how long have you two been separated? I'm certainly no expert on love (I'm single and never been married), but to me, if you two wanted to get a divorce, wouldn't you have done so already? Obviously something is keeping you hanging on, and it doesn't sound simply like desperation. But then again, who am I to say.</description>

		<description>You hear that, Sophia, I'm a sailboat!

Did I hear you say, "I'd rather find a yacht"?

(and by the way, my "date" was just a joke, so I didn't get lucky at all.  Next time, I'll put quotation marks around something I say that's tongue-in-cheek.)</description>

		<description>You really crack me up Neil!!!! And Sophia sounds amazing and you're right to not want to let go of her - you are nothing without her - there are spiritual roots to explain all these things - a man and woman form a vessel together for drawing the light - I know this sounds like science fiction but it's true.  A man without a woman is like a sailboat without wind.

Our generation is reaching a point where we will not find any satisfaction in anything external to ourselves - you can replace Sophia a million times but it won't give you any genuine sense of fulfillment - just like your friends aren't finding any genuine fulfillment in online dating.  

Everything was planned this way so that this generation would stop and contemplate what we're doing here - why we were put here in the first place - what the purpose of everything is.

You are such a classic example of this phenomenon - you have a woman you're crazy about and obviously drawn to but you can't get any lasting satisfaction from the relationship.  

Look around you Neil - do you know anyone nowadays that's genuinely satisfied and happy with their life? We keep searching for all kinds of things to fill us but there is only one kind of filling that's really going to do the trick.

Everything in this world - sex, food, shopping, movies - they're all just there to distract us from the real thing - kabbalah gives us millions of times more filling than any of the above because it connects us to eternity.

The only thing you're going to take with you when you leave this world is your spiritual advancement - not the beautiful women in your life, your money, your cars, your bank accounts, your wardrobe, or your vacation photos.  

Sophia if you're reading this - it's the woman who usually draws her mate to discovering the meaning of life.  So c'mon girl ... what are you waiting for?

Sorry for the long post but I just want to say one more thing - true love is not this romantic thing we have going on in this world - it's about achieving similarity of form with the Creator.</description>

		<description>Thanks, Regina.  If we lived in the same city, I'd come over and give you a handshake.</description>

		<description>Neil, I'm so glad you've found my website.  If you scan the date-related posts you'll find all my opinions about dating/relationships/marriage.  I prefer NO kiss on the first date, handshake ONLY.  Online dating sucks and we are all losers.  I hate being a spinster, but I fear marriage more...</description>
