relationships and pool = what?

[chefjeff]

I suppose a lot of people derive more satisfactions from a success in their career more than anything else. To become successful, may be it is a must to put one's career as one's first priority?

I think that's a valid point, nippon. After all, nature requires us to produce enough to sustain life, so it seems that productivity would be a happiness-generating prority for every individual. You gotta eat; you don't gotta screw...or play pool, for that matter.

Yet, a romatic relationship is like the mirror on a career. Expressing love in a good relationship is really a celebration of valuable work, isn't it, not so much the cause of happiness? I wonder if pool, by itself (no job, gambling, etc.), can be powerful enough to sustain such love. I doubt it, unless OTHERS are gaining value from your play (for example, a money-making pro player).

9ballgirl....it's strange always strange that the person you have everything in common with would not like you being around the pool room. I have noticed that alot of guys that play pool get kinda jealous of their girls being in the pool room. I have some guy friends that get jealous if I'm talking with other guys. It seems so ridiculous. If you are leaving the pool room with the same person everynight or going home from the pool room to the same person everynight and you trust each other that is all that matters.

The jealousy is a front....These guys don't want thier girl friend around because them being in the pool room makes it much harder to flirt / cheat.
How are they going to put on the Austin Powers moves with thier girl friend in the room???

These types of guys only keep a you as a girl friend until they can find someone els they like better...(Or is more fun in bed)...Everything els is just an act...

If a relationship is strong, the guy won't care at all if his girl friend is in the bulding.......

Although.......the only thing I do without my wife around other than work is play pool......but......as she puts it...She would rather I go play pool than go get drunk...(obviously I don't drink)
