I find the concept of being in "competition" with "younger, prettier women" just kind of...I don't know...I just don't relate to it...
Someone else mentioned in an LJ entry having once had a boyfriend "stolen" from her--another concept I just don't grasp.
It's something like this: relationships between human beings don't feel like a contest to me. Or like a zero-sum game. (I suspect that I have some personality traits that would work well with polyamory; what I lack is, I think, the energy.)
It's late and I'm babbling. But I had been thinking about that other LJ post, and then yours came along.
