Unfortunately, I have crossed the 50 year line and my testosterone is probably flagging. And it's probably better that way, because it leaves me less likely open to manipulations from women based on sex.

But I am starting to clearly see that the "soul-mate" thing is a bit of an oversold product. I'm starting to suspect that women are just women, even famous ones, and the same patterns play out over and over. In any case, I know that friends who told me "she is my soul mate" years ago are not singing that song today, and one is actually paying hefty alimony.

The soulmate concept was devised by women with overactive estrogen as a way to increase drama.  That way every conflict can be extremely significant and every breakup can be like the end of the world.
"To such females, womanhood is more sacrosanct by a thousand times than the Virgin Mary to popes--and motherhood, that degree raised to astronomic power. They have eaten the legend about themselves and believe it; they live it; they require fealty of us all." -- Philip Wylie, Generation of Vipers
