Not into Bukowski and never read any of his books. But obvi familiar with who he is!
Re that quote:
That’s called the Freedom of being a SINGLE person who is comfortable in their *OWN* company, in their skin and being Single *BY CHOICE* before actual Adult responsibilities, having to take care of others and beholden ONLY for themselves!
I think it’s something EVERYONE should try and do for YEARS, *BEFORE* they get married and settle down!
INSECURE & Male Attention Seeking Girls especially are not good at it, and it’s no wonder some of them marry & divorce multiple times cuz SO DESPERATE to be a Wife!
I would advise guys to NEVER EVER date these kinds of girls, especially if she’s VERY Pretty but if do, ALWAYS FKING USE A CONDOM cuz she WANTS to get pregnant and lock him down!
