Searching for lifemate? Or already have them?

It also helps that I tend to do it in chunks under 4 or so days at a time. In fact she has little desire to come along on most of my adventures as my idea of camping amenities is a shovel and a roll of toilet paper.

I humbly suggest that you look a bit harder. In my experience once a bachelor hits 40 it's pretty much game over. It's worth it. Really.

I understand what you mean, but I feel that if I actively search someone out that it almost can't be the "one". I am a believer that the "one" will show up, if they are meant to, no matter how improbable it may be. I am content to wait for that, whether it happens in an hour or never. I know plenty of couples who met through bizarre one-time things that almost certainly should not have happened.
