Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Cheers Shell I think last weekends "DATE" has opened my eyes.
I want to move and get on with my life . Meeting someone (put aside her faults)that can work 15hrs a week. Get heaps of centrelink help and be buying a unit in a nice upmarket area of adelaide.
Then I look in the mirror almost 17yrs in one job.No debts other than this house and I earn a pittance .But in the past that has stopped me not anymore!!
Sure i earn not very much but I own close enough(bank owns a tiny bit still) to half a house .Somehow someway jimbobs moving up in the world !!!

Now with my ex .She probably was cheating with her GF/BF dont know dont care .She was using my money but not anymore.Why she does little for our kids now is beyond me.Along with not wanting them to live with her .But they have to stay with me pitty I'd like them to be away from me .They seem to be getting stir-crazy with just dad poor kids their good but need lives.

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Yep shelly your right.I spoke with my laywer a couple of months back who said no matter what my ex will be added half the house .That included her signing away her share to me .The court will award it to her anyway!Dont forget when we were on good terms she didnt want the house

Waking up and people who would make fun of me .Suddenly finding their getting just as much back as they give .funny how some cant handle it coming back at them

So life is getting better funny never knew it wasn't when I was married . I must be the paradox male i guess .

Well I've done it again.

yep your right

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Yep will do when I find it :)

Well I've done it again.

Cheers daisy
I think your correct .I really think the guy on the other end was someone she had told me about .
Love the Mr Right at the wrong time quote .
And she was really miffed when I got up to leave after she told me it was over .What I'm supposed to sit there and keep talking !!!

Really I think she was a wake up call .
My Radar is better tuned now .

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Not really I've been talking to coworkers .Its time for me to move my life along .I'm rolling the dice of life and to quote a former prime minister "ITS TIME "

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Yep I'm not overly worried I'll do everything one step at a time .My ex has told the kids Im not to buy so I'll buy something thats small needs no work done to it lol

Well I've done it again.

That'd be my luck and shed sue me

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Why would anyone remarry just live with them same thing anyway

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Well hopefully she doesnt cause any problems .She still wont tell me where she lives except a general idea of the area.And I wasn't an abusive or violent husband .
Kids aren't a real problem 19 and 22 so no worries there.

Well I've done it again.

One day I hope she does .

Well perhaps I'm taking the next step

Seeing Im one who thinks way to much before acting.I had decided enough was enough .i looked into getting another loan and buying a unit to move into .
Everything is workable (loan officers words) on my small wage .But the hurdle is selling the joint property .With thought and asking work friends .I sent my Ex horror of horrors a txt .
so she actually txt me more than she has spoken to me in many months.
So we agree we both want to sell yipppeee.She thinks I'll rent she told the kids I'm not allowed to buy(in the past) what they dont know wont hurt them .I have come out and told her I'm not staying in this part of Adelaide I hate it hate the suburb etc etc etc .That shocked her I think from her txt .What shocked me she doesnt want either of the kids with her they have to stay with me!!
Plus the way she asked a question a work friend I told after i got a txt thinks she thinks I've found someone lol.

So watch out adelaide property developers I'm in a selling mood Then I'm free until the divorce god I cant wait .So experts i do have to wait 12 months from separation (no dependent age kids)for the divorce .

Cheers
Michael

Well I've done it again.

just like above

Well I've done it again.

I agree :)

Well I've done it again.

you know after having a 4 day weekend (it was my rdo friday). I would have preferred to not have wasted those 4 days(and no I wasnt with her all day of the four days) .
Then again I am now certain not to date anyone with the same birth-date as my ex!!!

Well I've done it again.

Your right but at first she was all smiles and laughing happy etc.I'm not used to that

Well I've done it again.

Well having slept on this Topic let me just say (in my best politicians voice)
1 perhaps everyone is correct .
2 Taken the ladies advice on my home life called a mortgage broker and been into credit union etc.Awaiting mortgage brokers response to work out my next move .But it maybe the same as for credit union.I may need to talk with my evil ex wife !!!
3 I seem to attract a certain female type and this one was to much like my ex ie controlling, along with being a wee bit freaky.So once my life is organised Id better watch out who i date.
4 Pretty certain I am not ADD and i slept all night

5 thanks everyone i just needed some input .

Well I've done it again.

I dont want to get in trouble for bragging
But to answer the nice young lady over and over and over and over and over on NYE (left a few off )
And Monday morning as well

So thats why I didnt get any sleep NYE

Well I've done it again.

Days of our Jimbob

Well I've done it again.

I should point out the guy wanted to meet her in a strip joint pub .Perhaps that was more exciting for her than me.

Well I've done it again.

Met what I thought was a nice younger lady from another dating site .We got together had fun lunch dinner over the xmas weekend .Met up again for NYE wont go into details .But after NYE I was in a relationship her words .Early this afternoon I'm not .And she knew I became single july1st .She kept saying its only 5 months over the weekend.
She got a txt and a phone call from another guy she wanted to meet.Suddenly she comes out with I cant handle this situation your in..Mind u all weekend I heard about how awful her ex was I kept my tongue from telling her to stop talking about him.She did however give me a clue this morning told me I was ADD(something about to much energy) and an insomniac .Well yes I couldn't sleep more about that latter.
I kept my tongue she could tell I was upset .But I was saying I wouldn't force anything on you .Then I thought time to leave .which shocked her a bit .I was civil polite etc but she could tell I wasn't happy .
After i left she sent me 2 txts yes she was correct about my situation .I will get the ball rolling this week I hope. But she then wanted to stay friends after brushing me off .She got pissed off when I txted yep your right and thanks and goodbye .I wasnt sure what to say but I did txt back saying I need time .

So before anyone has a shot at me I needed to say that to someone .Just happened to be u guys.
I should be upset but pros and cons
Same birthday as my ex seemed to be different .Happy smiling laughing.Turned out to be controlling(like my ex) OCD (could have handled that).But she snored like my EX two steam trains in her nose all night no wonder I couldnt sleep .
But she was so different to start with than my EX.

Oh well feel better out of my system :)

RE: Are Our Standards Too High & Our Options too Great

must be the walk didnt hurt me either lol

RE: Are Our Standards Too High & Our Options too Great

Its ok my friend Shell .I was feeling down when I wrote that.After a 2 hour walk I felt much better and upbeat

RE: Are Our Standards Too High & Our Options too Great

Perhaps you could pass on a few clues .I seem to be meeting the wrong ladies(unless they cancel) only early yet BUT are my standards to low !!!

RE: straight line

Well I'm just a DAD .

RE: Are Our Standards Too High & Our Options too Great

Seeing I upset a few of our posters with my why do women who have issues ,still go out on dates but cant leave their exes .Topic or something like that
I can totally understand where u are coming from .
Maybe I'm coming from a different direction but I can understand where u are coming from .

Ok this is why women topic

I think I may have written it wrong shorty .I would never lmao at a ladies offer to me .I said that in our chat and thats when they asked me what it meant .I was asked saturday what IMHO meant .
As I said above somewhere I'm not that much a Neanderthal

Ok this is why women topic

Yes thanks redozchick.I was a little early that group thing has changed.Some guy (not me) upset the lady organizing the night.So its just turned into me and the lovely lady organizing it having a date Saturday night

And I still say its that picture of me without my glasses .

Ok this is why women topic

yes i think your correct Blondeozchick
just to let everyone know I am like a kid in a lolly shop .i have been invited to a get together so far 4 single ladies and myself !!! And i will be a gentleman .dont worry guys pretty sure more blokes will come along as well.

Ok this is why women topic

Perhaps I wrote that wrong or you read it wrong wouldn't type that to a lady wanting to be a friend.But I meant many of those women don't understand internet slang.

Geez relax people I'm not a total Neanderthal
