KNenagh: We all meet people on dating sites that are not honest and only after money etc. Get over it, it's not a gender thing.

Going on a thread giving out that he only meets these kind of women (and there are obviously other women on here) is presumptious and do you think he does himself any favours with that?

He bashes a women he was married to for 22 years, great way to indroduce himself on a dating website.


confused So what if he bashes a women who used him! Women do the same and quite rightly so if they've been abused too! As for an introduction,it might not be to everyone's taste but again,SO WHAT?!The only females who really find his introduction a turn off are bullies,OH NO!laugh tongue

So you married this woman who had children from 4 previous marriages!!!! Plus the fact that she was not educated and not working..........surely that must have been an inkling that your financial support would be needed.
If the money means so much to you....you better check the next one´s financial position before embarking on any long term relationship. It´s not really something that´s normally discussed in the initial stages, but maybe YOU should be honest about what YOU expect.

lankycrewman: I wonder when will people tell the truth about themselves. I have been on many dating sites, and all I have found is people who can not tell about themselves or the truth. I have met scammers, clingers, and just people who are just out to take your hard earned working money.

They have come for different parts of the world to sites like this, and they just want your money.

I work hard for what I have and work just as hard to keep it but then one day you think the time is right for that special someone and then you get married. Years of being together, then you find out all they want is your money and not you. They want it to give to who ever they want and especially their children, which none of them are yours.

I was married for 22 yrs, raised children who were not mine, but from 4 previous marriages and all she wanted and wants is my money, because she was and is too lazy to get out and get an education and a job.

Some people say that I am too hard, but I work for my money to pay my way, and I expect the same from my mate, they do not have to make the same as I do but at least try to met me somewhere in the middle.


hard to believe that someone would stay in a relationship for 22 years where they weren't getting something out of it.

there's many parts to every person.
and i think this is probably just one part of you.
just not sure why it's the part you want us all to hear about first...dunno

uh oh Ok I will get real. You might not like it but it will be real uncertain quit looking for a woman right now. Spend time working on you. There is not a good woman and maybe not even a bad one that is going to come close to you when you have the stench of bitterness coming off you like you do. When you can write what you have written after being with someone for twenty two years it does not say alot about you. I perved your profile I usually don't do that.But I was curious. You have a nice dog. Seem like a nice guy. I know from my life to have your job and be in the union you are somewhat well grounded. But you need an attitude adjustment. I do wish you the best no matter what you decide to do. And I want to give you a little word of advice when you are ready to go out looking go out with the attitude this going to be fun. Not the attitude of I have to sort through the damn garbage. bouquet

lankycrewman: It is a lot safer than being taken advantaged of. But you did not read it as you thought you did. SHARE AND SHARE ALIKE, IF i PLACE HALF THEN MY MATE AT LEAST NEEDS TO TRY, NOT JUST SIT THERE.


The ladies re- the above quotes are correct your thread comes across negative so that is what you will get back negative. Move on get over it!

Take a good look at yourself for example if your partner was like not interested & lazy & all the things you say she was then you should have got out of the relationship earier why stay and put up with it. Don't use kids as excuse they weren't yours so really legally you're not responsible for them. dunno JMO

I agree with Sir Larry the 3RD;This man just joined to chat with people and I think he is very lonely and hurt.Now he feels comfortable on the forums and trying to tell his story,some jump all over him.He seems to be a good provider;works hard but not getting the love in the home that the female should be providing.
I worked in the mines with a lunch~pail that I had to make;buy the groceries;pay the bills;take my children to the Drs for innoculations;make their lunch to take to school in Kindergarten after working the midnite shift while the wife slept in or ran the roads.My son and daughter always depended on me in times of trouble.
I am so happy that I was always there for them when my wife wasnt,I put them through University, now my daughter is the "World-Wide Entertainment Director" for "Cirque Du Soliel" and my Son is working at a good job in a factory.I gave them work ethics which no female would do that I had in my life.THe ones I met were "GOLD DIGGERS" and Lazy.
If you believe in a "Husband and Wife Love in the Bible" with our duties to protect our home and children;then give "LANKYCREWMAN" A BREAK AND WELCOME HIM.DONT MALE-BASH ANYMORE MEN.HE NEEDS UPLIFTING.
ALSO DONT EMAIL ME WITH MORE MALE BASHING WITH THIS "HOSPICE PALLIATIVE CARE NURSE BECAUSE I WONT GIVE YOU THE TIME OF DAY.

The children were very lucky to have you in their lives. I am sure Lanky is more than welcome on these forums. And will be an added pleasure. I would hope he would not leave because people did not embrace his whine. I whine too. But I am adult enough I would rather hear the truth than have someone just give me meaningless lip service to make me happy. I stand by my post. bouquet

confused It wasn't me that mailed you

I don't see my comment as jumping on him. If you followed the threads, there were some bashing threads going on this week and I was saying not one of them again. I'm not on here that long, when I started off I started posting on threads, I didn't start a thread bashing my ex partner or something.

Are you bashing me because you're bashing your ex? There are good and bad people both male and female, coming on here insulting people isn't the right way.

I don't know why you bring up bible references, in general I think we should stop with gender bashing, this is a dating website. Let's face it, anyone coming on here - male or female - bashing the opposite gender won't be popular and maybe people should familiarise themselves and posts on some threads before they just post something stupid.

I stand by my comments.

youretheboss: I wonder if the responses would be so angry if the op were a woman.


my response would not be altered as it is not gender based.
i would say the same thing to a woman complaining about a 22 yr relationship. she must of been getting something or she would not of stayed.
for one to remain feeling victimized for 22 years, they would be getting something out of it, even if unfortunately that may be a continuance of being a victim. sad. but folks do it.
'for the sake of the children' just doesn't wash over a 22 yr period.

i would also find it curious if it was a woman presenting herself so negatively on a first post.

having said that, i want to repeat that everyone is a package.
and i believe this OP's post was just part of who he is.
i look forward to future posts when we get to know about other parts of him to see him in a more holistic light.

again, not gender biased. i would have same reaction.

I did not mean to sound like I was bashing her or any woman, but I have been hurt by the way some women act on here looking for the right man. If I offended anyone I am sorry, I just had to get it off my chest, and thanks for all the comments. I have enjoyed reading your comments. It has brought a different light to things.

I wish you best of luck finding someone suitable. handshake

Insults and acting wrongly happens from both genders and if you choose to stay on here you'll eventually get a thick skin. I was gobsmacked by some emails I got in the start, it takes a while to get your bearings. Take some of it with a pinch of salt and most importantly - HAVE FUN! wine

leni0822: well,stay single( forever) and enjoy your money alone


I will stay single and enjoy what I work for, money is not everything, but it helps to see the past, present and future. at least it is not being taken away by people who only wants to steal it and your life's work. If I offend you then I am sorry, but this is how I feel.

lankycrewman = "I was married for 22 yrs, raised children who were not mine, but from 4 previous marriages and all she wanted and wants is my money, because she was and is too lazy to get out and get an education and a job."


Hmmm, perhaps after 4 marriages she might have thought that divorcing men and fleecing them for alimony WAS her job?

And 22 years it took you to notice she didn't want to work? Personally, my philosophy was Happy Wife, Happy Life. Which goes both ways.
Obviously, now Im single, so it is Happy Me, Happy Me laugh But I am willing to share all my happiness with my future other half gladly.

So, how are your traits of bitterness, resentment and criticism working for you?

Still single are you?

Do you want to remain single?
