I am in my 40's and have had only two long term relationships...
My daughter has had more experience than I in the dating world.
It has nothing to do with it at all, you are right, but sometimes, there is a mental age gap, and at 35, he may well have had far more relationships than she...
I think she is looking too deep into this, instead of enjoying the attention of a man...
My brother was a player, he had girlfriend after girlfriend, like they were coming into prohibition, some at the same time. Whenver there was a family party, we used to ask him a week before who he was bringing, sometimes he would bring one that he had had before, and we have this picture frame in the dining room with about eight pictures in of bro with girlfriends, my Stepmother would make sure that there was a picture up...
Now at 36, he is settled with one girl, she is great and is well aware of his history. He sewed his wild oats and is ready to settle down. He is never mean, nasty or cruel, he just had a lot of women and then went through a period of being single, until he met the lovely one he is with now.
I think men should settle down later, they like to plant their seed and my brother has been safe, checked and all is well... Some of the girls he is touch with and they have a great relationship... It never troubles his girlfriend...
Stop worrying, he will give him enough rope to hang himself with if he chooses to, just enjoy him for the time you have with him now...
Although, when he has blugeoned them, the women will be on their periods at the same time, true that you know, if women live together, their cycles become in sync...
Hurrah, I was beginning to think it was just me. I am very close to Captain and we talk and share a loving, stable, trusting relationship. To tell him everything would be tedious for him and for me, same with him... But that does not make us not together...
I tell him what is important to him and I, our 'we' and if I don't, or am vague about it, I get a ticking off.
He could not care less, if I have an inbox full everyday from men, he knows that I am his, and that is not from anything he reads here, it is because he knows from me.
As for handing over my password to my account here, Captain would not even ask for it, if he did, I would happily hand it over, but then that sort of smacks of a distrust he would have for me if he felt he had to have my password, I have no wish to have his, that does not mean that either of us have anything to hide, we are pretty stable that way in that there is no reason to hide anything, like the daft emails I receive from folks, he would and I would find it tediously boring to have to tell each other everything. We don;t have to prove that we trust each other, we just do.
In that we don't have burning desires to see what is going on behind the scenes, this is an open forum, he can see what I write and I can him.
It does make me laugh when I see this, 'I give my password over, because they have to prove they have nothing to hide...
We did a story about it, it was bloody funny, our story that is, not the slanging match that went on, but ya know, Robert is crackers and Lago well? He handled it all beautifully.
And Radders has been poorly, you should go post in his thread.
Smoky is about sometimes, Falling Man is here dispensing wisdom and Marki has not had to rescued yet, and Mikey is back, more married than ever...
Jan drops in, and Imma, Ven comes back not enough and well ya know? EU forums trundle on...
No, I meant water down so as not to bore anyone further, or should I say condense?
Or even edit?
As you know Ambrose, I have never made any bones about fidelity, yet I have handled the 'husband leaving me for another woman' quite well and have forgiven him for that, and come to a better place for probing deep within myself and searching my own answers rather than living in a pit of misery where I have not dispensed my hurt or anger back to him, although the hurt and anger had it's place for him. He needed that so he could recover too. I looked at my own behaviours, which contributed to the breakdown, not just his.
Karen has entered a tricky situation, as she has posted and you are right, she does need to probe further, so understanding herself that why she feels drawn and excited to this arrangement. I know at my age, I could not even contemplate it.
Because I have already asked myself those questions, I have dug like a woman possessed so that I could find what I really needed from a man, not from a relationship, from the him that would be a part of my life...
And I came up a bit good with that one, me thinks...
Karen is in a pickle, from what she has written, but then she could not be really, it could be just to brighten up the place, to give us something to talk about other than word association, who the hell knows, but if it is true and she is in this, then I, in my humble adising skills, would be saying, shelve both of them, look at yourself, take some time, seek, search your very innermost person...
And come out with something that is worth offering to the potential men that would love to be in a relationship with a balanced, attractive woman...
It might be simple to you. To me it is like working out an instruction manual written in Chinese...
So, you are saying that there are subscription sites, that offer a service for people to access other people's accounts on any site, all with their email address?
I quite like living alone, I like my pillows in a certain way.
But I like knowing that I belong to someone, even though it's a bit tough being apart at times. I love my home, my pillows, but I do sometimes yearn for his underpants slung on my bathroom floor.
RE: Have you been banned from CS?
How the hell you haven't been banned is a bloody enigma to me...
