My Very Dear Wife:
Indications are very strong that we shall move in a few days, perhaps tomorrow. Lest I should not be able to write you again, I feel impelled to write a few lines, that may fall under your eye when I shall be no more.
…. I have no misgivings about, or lack of confidence in, the cause in which I am engaged, and my courage does not halt or falter. I know …how great a debt we owe to those who went before us …and I am willing, perfectly willing to lay down all my joys in this life to help maintain this government, and to pay that debt.
But, my dear wife, when I know, that with my own joys, I lay down nearly all of yours, and replace them in this life with care and sorrows, …. is it weak or dishonorable, while the banner of my purpose floats calmly and proudly in the breeze, that my unbounded love for you, my darling wife and children, should struggle in fierce, though useless, contest with my love of country….
Sarah, my love for you is deathless. It seems to bind me with mighty cables, that nothing but Omnipotence can break; and yet, my love of country comes over me like a strong wind, and bears me irresistably on with all those chains, to the battlefield. The memories of all the blissful moments I have spent with you come crowding over me, and I feel most deeply grateful to God and you, that I have enjoyed them so long. And how hard it is for me to give them up, and burn to ashes the hopes of future years, when, God willing, we might still have lived and loved together, and seen our boys grow up to honorable manhood around us.
I know I have but few claims upon Divine Providence, but something whispers to me, perhaps it is the wafted prayer of my little Edgar, that I shall return to my loved ones unharmed. If I do not, my dear Sarah, never forget how much I love you, nor that, when my last breath escapes me on the battlefield, it will whisper your name.
Forgive my many faults, and the many pains I have caused you. How thoughtless, how foolish I have oftentimes been! How gladly would I wash out with my tears, every little spot upon your happiness, and struggle with all the misfortune of this world, to shield you and my children from harm. But I cannot. ….
But, O Sarah, if the dead can come back to this earth, and flit unseen around those they loved, I shall always be near you--in the garish day, and the darkest night amidst your happiest scenes and gloomiest hours--always, always, and, if the soft breeze fans your cheek, it shall be my breath; or the cool air cools your throbbing temples, it shall be my spirit passing by.
Sarah, do not mourn me dear; think I am gone, and wait for me, for we shall meet again….
I'll always say yes to a date in the backcountry, or hotlapping the park. Jumping off cliffs, mtn biking, whatever
Sitting awkwardly at a restaurant bores me to death and I usually say no to boring dates. "Lets grab a drink" only worked on me once cuz the guy was a cute sledder and a decent skier
Everyones different tho. Its also nice when it doesnt feel like a date, and more like 2 homies hanging out

This only works if you have mutual friends / have already hung out together in a group. Girls usually aren't down to go ride backcountry with complete strangers.
If it's a girl you have a crush on but don't know or met on tinder then just ask her out for a drink, coffee, pegging session, free concert, etc. Just keep it low pressure and casual. 😎
A chick that sits around and reads books all day probably won't want to go on a sky diving date, a girl that goes sky diving all the time probably won't want to go on a date to the library, think
JAHpowJust hit her with the Sullivan Ballou letter

This is key^. Ask her to do something she'll like to do and keep it low key
Show her your Big Horn. The Big Horn makes the whole bedroom your playground. We designed a new layup for the Big Horn with Pornhub Star Belle Delphine that preserves its playful nature while improving its ability to hold up to the highest speeds and largest thrusts in bed.

girls be saying i wanna do fun stuff outdoors but leave me on read when i ask them to go horseshoe tossing.
Ask her out nicely, something romantic, maybe some flowers
If she says yes, be gentlemanly and do gentlemen things because this will impress her
maybe go out to a nice restaurant, something real classy
make sure to bring money because you MUST pay for her
then while you are eating slowly reach underneath the table and steal her toes
never return
CrunnchyVanMandon't communicate at all. girls love mystery. pretend she doesn't exist and she will be so intrigued that she will be the one asking you out

Types of dates I will always say yes to: coffee dates and breakfast dates
Just ask her. Honestly adding in pick up lines and trying to be smooth, 99% of the time is cringe and isn't necessary. Sure if you're that 1% that succeeds thats great but yeah idk. I have the driest sense of humor and LOVE shitty pick up lines but not like when they are directed at me lol. I think most girls are similar. So just be nice and tell her you would like to get some coffee or breakfast or insert whatever kind of date here.

Butterytips69This works so well that girls do the same to me
i was in boston airport yrs ago and i caught this girl staring at me and i looked at her for a second then looked away, unimpressed. She like walked across the hall then passed really close to me and gave me a really angry look as she passed by me. I thought it was pretty funny she would be so transparent in her anger about me not paying attention to her. She wasnt even that bad looking.
op if you are not good looking then just say hi to her and act like you are talking to her not because you want to go cherrysmashing but just because you are a nice guy and you are being polite.
the reason girls get put off by guys who seem too desperate or impatient is not because the girls are cynical or want to punish desperate guys. In both boys and girls we are trying to find a mate with the best genes possible. So whether you are a boy or a girl if a potential mate comes up to you and seems anxious and desperate you are instinctually going to think this mate has shitty genes because why else would they act so desperate unless they just finished getting rejected by the entire rest of the school?
you are instinctually going to look for a mate with the best genes possible so just like supply and demand in economics, if a potential mate comes at you all promiscuous like, they are selling themselves for cheap which makes it seem as if genes at their level are in ready supply and not scarce. So if you are going up to a girl you want to make her feel that your genes are scarce and she will notice you being very conservative and think that she would be lucky to acquire your genes. Almost as if dicks and vaginas had price tags in a market. Everybody is going to be more interested naturally in ones with a higher price tag.
so you are kind of beating the system by tricking a girl into believing youre not that interested in her poon, but in my view this tactic is fair game.
But if you are good looking then just go up to her and tell her you have a psychological need to eat pussy at least 3 hours a day and you are hoping she can help you out.
just kidding. DONT DO THAT.
But honestly if you are decent looking you can within reason do or say whatever the fuck you want and still end up fucking.
One time i had a really attractive girl literally stare at me nonstop to the point i didnt even know what she wanted until i thought about it later. At the time i literally thought she was mad at me.
think about this poster that was popular when i was a kid:
The hidden meaning in this poster is that ugly ppl are usually really awkward about their feelings for eachother. Like guys who think boogie nights is the best movie ever and girls who watch nothing but romantic chick flicks.
when youre decent looking or good looking you dont need alcohol. Alcohol always helps but you dont need it. If you know a girl wants to fuck you and she knows you want to fuck her then just put your brain on recliner and let shit happen however its gonna happen. Be a passenger. Dont try to control it. Just do whatever feels natural.
And when a girl wants you to kiss her she will let you know. Some girls will even kiss you first.
but most girls seem to want you to take the initiative.
Also, be realistic about your options. If you are good looking and 6 foot 3 then by all means go up to the hottest girl you can find and just say hi.
but if you are an ugly little bitchboy like sfb420 or milfhunter then try to find a girl that is within your reach. And if you are horny as fuck, go after the ugliest girl that you would still want to fuck. Once you get laid and get the anxiety out then you can chew your arm off snd move on to hotter and hotter girls you think you can achieve.
But dont feel rushed about anything op. Its not a race. And dont get to obsessed with romance.
by the time you are my age you will realize romance is one of the most boring fucking things that have ever existed.
having kids is good. And having a companion is good. And letting your kids have both a mom and a dad under 1 roof is good. But dont worry about true love. Just find somebody you can stand being around.

The only sorta “date” I’ve done was breakfast, I feel like girls think you just wanna hookup if you ask them to go to dinner late at night or see a movie.
I can see this approach setting you up for long term success better.
But I mean I’ve never been on an actual date. That’s the goal for this summer

dude I've never understood how going out for a coffee date could be fun... "Getting a coffee" for me is running on 4 hrs of sleep stopping at the tim's drive thru omw to work haha trying to find an empty cupholder in my car cuz they're all full of empty coffee cups smh
If you want a date; use facebook or tinder. At least you can get a date because they never met you. Not having a social media footprint will get you nowhere. Ive been turned down numerous times because I dont have a profile they can stalk.
Dont ever mention; winter, snow, mountains, outdoor activities or projects you are involved with. That will end up in rejection for being “too outgoing”. However complaining about all of the above seems to get girl’s attention.
This is what I noticed so secure a second date:
-Be up to date on whats on TV, netfix or hulu. Most conversations that works are when she does monologues about TV shows you have never heard of. TLC shows seem to be gaining popularity.
- Bring the topic to their experience in school. Girls seem to enjoy their schooling experience.
- talk about pets; they melt when they talk about their pets.
Pisses me off that I love everything they dislike and dislike everything they revolve around. I accept it; its better to get lost in the mountains alone than with someone who is freaking out...

Omg dude coffee dates are great but def nothing like a Tim’s run. I’m talking like a cafe that’s most likely overpriced with outdoor seating at like 10:30am on the weekend lol

That's relatable. "Hey babe wanna go catch a couple brews with me? Nah I don't mean beers. Let's wake up after 2 hours of sleep and grumpily sit in the silent car to the city brew drive thru and get some dry flavorless coffee to burn our tongues before I drop you off for a long day of work"

People have a weird association with coffee being shitty, and them being tired. It's sad. But if you have this weird coffee PTSD. There is always tea. Find a nice tea house, you get a little extra class points for the whole deal. And there are a lot of fine teas with no caffeine.
If you're just looking to smash, Mexican restaurant for happy hour margaritas.
MinggKaylena can eat a dick. I went to high school with her and she was the largest bitch I have ever met
Lmfao everytime I’ve been it’s been awful and slow service. I’d eat at comfort zone any day over all those except maybe Katy’s just cause theirs one lady that works at Katy’s and she’s from savannah Georgia and my family used to also live there.

Lol I was throwing shade at Shity Brew. I never go there. If it's my choice I only get good coffee even if I'm tired. At home I just drink tea and used to go to lots of tea places when I lived in colorado. Don't know any in Bozeman
