Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Fishing spot for a beginner

I think widespread generalizations about either sex are just that generalizations and are a path to disillusionment. I enjoy both time to myself and social activities with community and family. Find someone who you enjoy spending time with and who feels the same about you with similar goals and values and it won't matter if you are in a cardboard box with no fishing rod or on a stream during a 100 year caddis hatch...

Brendan's post was a funny read, but kind of sad too because I think it is perfectly representative of the life cycle of any long term relationship. Men draw emotional/spiritual/etc substance predominantly through work and escapist solitary acts of self gratitude (fishing, working on cars, sports) while women draw theirs from social activities with community and family; from the proximity and quality of their interpersonal relationships. The two wellsprings are such worlds apart it is depressing. The constant interplay of compromise and sacrifice to maintain relationships is staggering. I'm sure evolution confered some kind advantage which led to this divide, but it still sucks.

If you really like that girl don't take her fishing. Lie to her about your work hours when you need to and practice activities of personal fulfillment in secrecy.
