I'm 63 in a couple of months. Don't marry too young because you are not mature enough until you've got a few miles on you. When you do marry, give your woman respect. Put her first, because if you do, someday she will be your greatest ally. Tell those you love how important they are to you. Often. Time passes quickly. Too quickly. Don't be selfish with your love, your time or your money. Start saving for retirement. It'll be here sooner than you can imagine. Have fun. Make time to spend time with your friends and family.

I have lived exactly how I have described above. Have no regrets. Raised my 3 girls and taught them to give and demand respect. They are happy and successful which makes me happy and feeling successful, I tell them how important they are to me every time I see them or talk to them on the phone.And the best thing I ever did was show them how they should be treated by how I treated their mother.

THIS. Oh and I'm teaching my DD the basics on self defense and how to handle situations where she may be under attack. With all the BS that many males think they can get away with watching social media, teaching my girl how to handle these situations will only help if it ever happens to her.
