One guy and I were thinking about the future, and he said I am never marrying. I said, back, oh, but you would live with him. He said, sure, I would. And I said, sure we wouldn't. No way would I get into something like that. But the next day came along, and I thought, maybe not marrying is ok also. So I told him I had changed my mind. He was convinced I was not sure. After that decided, I was right in the first way I thought. Marriage is better if you wait a proper time.
I am a mix, some girly-girl, would love to kick box, race cars, race speed boats, but do not like football, but will watch baseball, some auto racing also. I have gotten out of the shopping phase, instead buy when I need.
There is no such typical woman, as there is not typical man. Thank the above for that.
Now, I know why I didn't mention anyone from South Africa. Quite a dig.
The Doberman Also, Doberman's are quite a different dog from most. They have a pretty good set of teeth. I hear they do not have much of a sense of humor when people go beyond their bounds like you.
Rocksmith, I guarantee any hot blooded women would have been disappointed. I have had good, and I have had bad. This was the worst ever. I would not wish him on any women .
Rock, you are wrong. There are good lovers and ones that suck. Just because one lover is good, that doesn't mean the other one will be. That French guy, made his claim to fame into a joke. He wouldn't stop talking too, all of these french words, he was a french patriot.
You have your opinion, and I have my fact. I was there and you were not.
Yes, very true, I like the cooking here. I also make a delicious Apple Pie. Plus, Fried blackberries when in season. You really don't fry them, mainly slow cook the juices together and serve vanilla ice cream on the side.
This is going well. But besides the brawn, there are men in bands who can play a guitar and also sing so well. What is a woman to do? I'm not in to much distress since I have a date for Friday and Saturday too. Men, gotta love it.
But, I do have to say, men and women think so different that it makes it so hard these days. But it does make me giggle when I hear men say the same thing.
I guess we have to be glad our thinking is not the same because it would be pretty boring talking to yourself all day.
No offense to you American guys. Some of you may fit into my image of a mainly man. But I fell faint when I see a rugged Scottish man, Auz man, or New Zealand. But not to forget men in Malta, and other countries.
I guess the difference is how foreign men have more freedom and space to be exactly as they would like to be. Here, almost all men are thrown into offices. Everyone lives crowded together. About the only time for real fun is to get away to the beach during the summer.
We see some nice looking men here, but not at all like foreign man in his element.
I'm am sure American men will agree with me about women here. There is a strong attraction for foreign women here in the US, we are just like night and day.
I had no problem finding men to date me while I was separated. I think some men like to date separated women.
I have learned my lesson about separated men. I thought they also would want a fresh start. I was sorry they were going through what I had gone through. Plus, they would say, women will not go out with me because I am separated.
New rule, no separated men.
I found they found you to be a shiny new toy to try out. They did not want anything serious.
All I can say, is be happy he was such a jerk? He put on no act and acted himself and saved you alot of trouble.
If he was doing that to me during dinner, blatant flirting with another woman. I would not act mad at all, I'd get up and go to the woman. Then I'd tell her I'm a friend of his and said the worst thing about you. Then I'd say I can not repeat it, but I'd go over and ask him. I might even stand by and watch the action. Then go to ask him if everything was ok, but accidentally knock a glass of ice water. Oh dear!
I wonder also if women carry more baggiage. We are the one's to keep a marriage going, raise the kids, cook, clean, etc.
Then when the relationship is over, it's proven that a man hardly takes a break. He moves right onto another relationship without letting his mind think. That is because men do not like being alone. But they do not mind leaving.
It's very easy to find someone else after someone has hurt us. But I have never been able to do it. I have to have space to process and try to move on.
It certainly isn't easy for us as we get older. Our parents usually stayed together longer. Now it's very common to see couples break up. I don't know how many guys I've dated recently who have kids every other weekend. Or some of them change their schedule to be there when their child gets home. It may not be the perfect way, but at least both parents can still be apart of their kid's life.
That is a awful thing to have happened. I wish someone had told you in her family since she kept it hidden from you. I have never heard of a person that was sick keeping it from her husband. I really think her doctor should have had you involved. Most doctors want to keep in touch with the spouse. I'm very sorry about this. It is a real shame.
There is not one person who is "normal". Even "normal" people come unhinged and commit violence.
I believe as long as someone is doing everything in their power to control a mental illness leave them be. If they take their meds, talk therapy, and see a shrink they are doing all that they can.
People are born with a chemical imbalance that so called "normal" people do not have.
If you look at the majority of artists and actors, they can have mental problems.
It's time for people not to continue the stigma. Is there stigma because someone is diabetic, heart disease, cancer?
Also, look at Presidents like Kennedy who had depression. He had to hide it. Also Abe Lincoln, Winston Churchill.
I agree with the poster before me, people need to get more knowledge about mental illness before they think the know it all.
Yes, OP, lets have everyone list their problems in their profile if you think people that have a mental illness should do so.
I love the song by J Geills "Love Stinks", that about sums up the end of my 25 year marriage. All of the good was not worth the pain while we were still married and he found someone else and worse. I know I can't change history, but if I could, I would have never married him because was not worth it.
But I almost have to thank him for what he did, because I became so much stronger and independent because of it.
He already has someone new that he said he told her about what he had done to me. Well, good luck, honey.
I still believe in love, but not the one above. For me to try it again, I would have to be silly in love but also realistic about if it would last.
I know there are some men who do not care if they are pleasing the woman or not. It doesn't matter, as soon as they get what they want. But if the man tried more, I think he could more out of it himself.
Sometimes the two people together are not a good fit, ha.
When a guy and women know how to make love the best way, it is amazing. It doesn't have to be just a poke and that's it, then snoresville. He got what he wanted. Such bull!
Thanks Best. As for Meredith, did anyone know that much about her. I can not remember her face, it was all about Amanda Knox and her boyfriend. Again, RIP, Meredith Kercher.
I just have a gut feeling that there is more to this than meets the eye.
I feel so strongly for the family of Meredith Kercher. No one should die the way Meredith died. As for the family, I think it will have an effect on them until they die. No one deserves to lose their daughter, it's just sickening.
RE: How long would (or should) two people date before getting married?
