thinking about this and reading some of the posts here and posts regarding nice guys finishing last, can it be this can be just as much as the woman's fault. You have women who only like the "bad" boys they get with them and babies come and they act all surprised Mr. Bad Boy bails. Hey it can be understandable that the Nice Guy doesn't make your boat float. I mean if your going to sail into the eye of the hurricane make sure you have the life preservers.
I was about to pull out the 10 foot pole and not touch this. Well anyway single fathers and divorced fathers that fight tooth and nail to keep their children in their lives, I guess you just consider the venomous source.
Always easy to call someone a loser. Suicide runs far deeper than labels. The demons that creep into someones life that causes them to take drastic measures cannot be simply written off in simple terms.
When you deal with suicidal people you realize they are not losers. Many are just very tortured
I never worry much about giving out my email address I usually keep about 5 of them, if one get overwhelmed with spam I just delete it. I do have 2 that I protect with my life, one for family and friends the other for my business. These are both tied to my phone so I never gives those out until I know they will be I protect these like I do my cell phone#.
funny this post came up as my son was popping popcorn. So right at this moment that is my favorite smell, and if he wants to live tell 10 he better share.
It is kind of a balance between being nice and not being walked over and taken advantage of. Age has taught me that sometimes you have to let the a**hole side show just to keep them guessing.
SF, Very eloquently put, I love your dissertation of your original post. I have always believed the instant we as man start defining or trying to speak for God (whatever that may be) we fall short. I realize a while back that God can only exist as we as individuals place in our spiritual consciousness. I have long determined religious dogma (or scripture) no more promotes spirituality than the attempt at discovering God through our own rationality.
Easy need to date men not boys. Men have courage and face truth no matter the consequences realizing it is courage the separate Men from the boys the run and hide behind momma's skirt when the truth is hard.
I guess the problem is the boys can put up a good front. Just realize when a man tells you something that scares you and may be hard to deal with and he is being honest, don't run away realize you are with a real man.
It seems to me that Men usually have the hang-up here on women being taller than them. but if you look at the female profiles on hear a good majority of them show there preference for men taller than them.
I don't know it could be one of those natural evolution things.
I cant cook, I am balding, I am in debt up to my eyeballs, damn, I really need to work on that personality thing. Is "wet blanket" a positive personality description.
I am a father of three boys, not one of them potty trained the same age, length of time, and number of regressions (this is the fun one). The best I can tell you is patience and remember, I have yet to meet an 18 year old not potty trained, so it will happen in its own time. Oh and night time potty training can sometimes but not always occur at the same time. BTW I have many tricks for teaching boys, girls I am as clueless as anyone.
Hey, I was raised from birth by a single mother, if single motherhood caused juvenile delinquents, I should be serving life in prison. The best indication, in my opinion, of success in raising children, is when they grow up are the productive, contributing members of society. My mom was 4 of 4 children which in my book qualifies her for a Nobel prize, but I might be biased. .
Just a note, I have actually really taken people's comment to heart, thank you very much. For now I have changed my profile to reflect this so as to not give anyone the wrong impression. I changed to from "separated" to "not single/not looking". But really enjoyed reading and posting on this forum and hope no one will be offended if I stick around.

Yes, cultural influence is a factor here. Parents that don't like our lifestyle may make it difficult for our children to interact with theirs. I encountered this from time to time in my youth. We have very LDS neighbors but they are very good to us and our kids.
