He gave the best possible answer.<br /><br />From my side-interest in social science, a few other interesting points: attending religious services on a weekly basis decreases the likelihood of a man cheating by about 33% versus never attending. This works on a continuum so the 33% is spread out over increased attendance. This is probably no help to someone who is strongly anti-religion but if you are religious or at least ambivalent yourself it is something to consider. I personally believe that this is because regular church attendance provides an indication that a person takes a particular commitment seriously, and is more likely to take another one (marriage) seriously as well.<br /><br />Also, smarter men (and women) are more likely to cheat, so it may be less risky to marry someone of average intelligence, although again it depends on what kind of person you are. I chalk this up to smart people being less able to relate to the average Joe/Jane. Thus, they are less likely to marry someone similar to themselves, and when the magic of first love fades, they may find they no longer have any shared values or interests with their spouse.Jokah Macphersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04185675633464395897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9378354.post-54352361719670539672009-12-11T17:28:12.091-05:002009-12-11T17:28:12.091-05:00Make sure he is past his 'lad' type behavi...Make sure he is past his 'lad' type behaviour. Is he still in touch with any of his ex's? How much of a hold does his family have over him and how will that affect your time together?Matt@ dating websites Americhttp://www.todaysdating.comnoreply@blogger.com
