There seem to be some women who are drawn to men sporting wedding bands. They'll know a guy is married and still try to go after him. To hear them tell it, they would much rather share a guy than be without, they don't have to do some of the stuff that the wifey has to do and they get to enjoy the man's attention - although he may sometimes be unavailable when he has 'Family stuff' to do. Getting the scraps of the man's time. Still they will reason that half a loaf is better than none. I could never see myself living that kind of life but some men do encourage it, going as far sometimes as having a whole other family with these women. Have any of you guys noticed women trying to come on to you even though they knew you were married at the time?
As anyone who had ever travelled to the Caribbean knows we have lots of very beautiful islands here - not to mention beautiful people, exciting history, breath taking scenery and beaches. There is always something exciting going on. Just thought I'd showcase some of things that makes my particular two islands special. Has anyone ever been to a Caribbean island? What was it like?
Hey SND, My Dad, his dad and my stepdad were all policemen. Believe me its a TOUGH JOB - and an EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ONE. Out here a lot of Policemen are targeted for their guns by criminals. While many respect the role of the policeman - others do not. This could be someone's dad, son, brother, friend, etc.. its a life that cannot be replaces.
Does a man's relationship with his mother in any way influence how he will treat his significant other? I've heard this is an important thing to watch out for as an indicator of possible future behavior with other women? What do you think? When considering a man as a future date or partner do women tend to look at this relationship as a big deciding factor in whether to get involved with a man or not?
I'll go a step further if you know you're one of those people who is going to be keeping an eye on every exit for a quick getaway in a relationship then don't waste yours and the other person's time. And if you're one of those for whom the thought of some woman/man running off with your hard earned cash is just too devastating then why bother, if you're mind is always on your money and your money is always on you're mind then yeah give it a miss because its about a lot more than money. And if you've really got no time to invest in trying to keep things fresh in a marriage or try to work at it when there are the first signs of trouble because hey you don't want a millstone around you're neck anyway, then most definitely give marriage a miss. Probably if more people who felt this way just avoided marriage all together there would be a lot less divorce. JMHO.
Maybe its just me, but neither Marriage or Shacking up is going to guarantee you bliss forever. Is money the only thing or the most important thing that people think that is lost when a relationship ends? What about the emotional investment(on both sides)? What about if their were children in the union? Marriage is not something that should be done lightly, and just deciding to live with someone should also not be done lightly. The only guarantee is death and taxes. I'm not saying marriage is for everyone but if one is only going to think of the negative risks even BEFORE the relationship starts, then why even bother to fall in love with anyone. Stay single for ever and you get to keep all your emotions safe and all your CASH in your bank account. In fact why bother with dating or dating sites, sooo many scammers, your might not find a match, you might contact someone and they reject you..... I could go on and on with the negatives. In fact why bother to live, you might walk outside and get hit by a bus. Yes there are risks in life,just choose the risks you take wisely, we could all just stay indoors and never bother to go out - but hey nothing ventured nothing gained.
I've got family that lives there. An Uncle that moved from here to live there years ago and his kids who were born there. The funny part was the ladies walking about in their little summer dresses carefree muttering about lovely weather and me bundled up in jeans, thick socks and a sweater. Then there was the time I was out on the balcony of the apartment where they live and felt something hit me in the head, looked down to see a chunk of ice and wondered why someone from the apartment above was throwing ice at me. Only to realise it was kinda raining these balls of ice - My first experience with hail.
Well they told me it was the height of 'Summer' in Toronto, but my poor body was saying middle of Antarctica. I spent a month and when I went back home had to go out on a lounge chair and thaw out the frozen bones for a couple hours. I'm from the tropics, guess I'm not genetically programmed for the cold.
Based on some of what I've seen since I've been here maybe the site should be called Connecting Right Next Door/Down the Road Singles. Not a whole lot of people want to or can move.
Wow what a lesson to teach your kids! That if things get tough the best way out is to kill yourself and them. Then again I guess if that's your answer then they won't be around to be learning any lessons about life anymore. Sad.
How important is the financial situation of a potential partner to you? Does it influence your choice at all? Time and again I've seen complaints here by some men that they encounter women who show a great interest in their bank book. Are men(who are not scammers) as interested in knowing about the finances of their potential partner? Sooner or later the topic is bound to come up. And while money is not the be all and end all - it is important. After all these days it takes two hands to clap. While we don't have to be rich - there are bills to be paid. How important is it to you?

You'd be surprized at how many women do this.
