Men SUCK!

Laura, I think it's so refreshing that you didn't buy into this guy's load of cr*p. You know a guy that long and he never mentions his wife! I wonder how many times he's cheated on his wife. What's even more pathetic is I've heard this story too many times before... There's too many creeps out there.
 
Ah, Laura, I can't seem to find a good one. I know there are some out there, but as far as I can tell, they're all taken! That guy is a real jerk and needs a serious attitude adjustment. I hope you gave it to him.
 
I highly doubt he and his wife are living in seperate wings of the house. Clearly, he doesn't see much use for the truth so I'd question every word out of his mouth.

As for the guy 11 years younger...why have any conversation with him at all?? I'd ask the sweetie to say very little unless it's in Italian!:9 }(
 
*Ahem* - I keep saying this, but PLEASE don't discount the younger guy. My SO is 10 years younger than me and we have damn good conversation. Rarely do I feel the age difference at all. When we started seeing each other, he was 27, I was 37. People never even realize that there's an age difference at all. You're young at heart.... maybe younger is what you need;)

And I like the 45-plate-as-frisbee idea.}(
 
Yeah, I think you should give the younger guy a chance. You never know what you could discover. You could be surprised. Anyways, 11 years is not much of a difference. Heck, I would go 15 or more myself if I were you. Life is too short....don't limit yourself. Keep your spirit free and wild.

I love this, this is toooo funnny:+ . It must be a I hate MEN this week, whether you are single, married or living with one, they are at times a pain the astec!! Annette
 
I'm with Shelley. Give the younger guy a chance. I work with a lot of 20-somethings and most of them are very good at intelligent conversation. Maybe a younger guy could give you a different perspective...different can be good. :)
 
Sorry chicky, you've been so busy at work these days. :p

You guys are so funny & sweet, thanks for all the support. You know what really bugs me about the whole thing? It's not him specifically (although I am pissed off at him), it's the fact that I'm constantly hit on by married men & rarely hit on by single guys. What is it about me that says "piece of a$$ on the side?" My clothes? My makeup? Some kind of weird vibe I'm putting out? I just don't get why all these guys think I'm willing to be their wh*re. It's downright humiliating & incredibly demoralizing.
 
Oh Laura....it's not you! I see why you are frustrated! I have no doubt that it is more of a "She is so beautiful, I have to try" thing! Don't go thinking you need to change! As for the single guys staying to the side...my DH told me once that very pretty women can be intimidating....like "there's no way someone that pretty would go out with me." Also, some men may be insecure about other men looking at their woman. A married guy wouldn't concern himself with that!

Any thoughts to you asking a guy out??

P.S...I was just kidding about using the young guy for a booty call!;-)
 
Oh, Laura, I promise you there are some great ones out there. On my first date with my DH, he took out his wallet to pay for something, and there was a picture of a woman. He felt compelled to tell me that he had been dating her for awhile, but that he broke up with her. I was like, hey, this is just a first date, buddy, I don't really care. But he had this moral code about telling me everything I could possibly want to know about him, and then some. I thought it was very cute. I'm sure there are lots of other guys out there who really respect women. I know so many wonderful young men! :D

Yeah I've been through many a similar situation. sucks! However, as a 32 year old don't discount the younger guy...what's he late 20s, early 30s. Do it!!!!! Ya never know. It's maturity not age that matters anyway. Find out how mature he is not how old he is ;)
 
Amy,

It's a good thing I wasn't drinking coffee. That "chunky dunk" line would have sent it shooting out my nose. Good one!

Laura,

I agree. He sucks.

My parents are in a similar situation as LauraMax describes. My mom they stay married because she's worried if they divorce he won't have health insurance and blah blah blah--basically a new lame excuse every week. When I ask my Dad why they stay married he just uses doublespeak to weasel out of answering the question. Not even Johnny Cochrane could pin that guy down. Talked about mixed emotions--it's kind of weird when the 'scumbag' is your Dad. Over the past 30 years I've figured out a way to manage to love him cause he's my Dad but also hate him at the same time because he's screwing over my Mom! Human beings are quite adaptable.

I think if I were in the market for a man I'd go for one of those dating sites like E-Harmony. That seems like the best way to cut through the crap.

I am sorry, but please tell me if I understand this correctly! You've been flirting with this guy "for years", and you broke up "last year" with another guy! So, does that mean while you had a relationship with the other guy, you also were flirting with this jerk??
 
Ummm, I flirt with a lot of men, IMO there's nothing wrong with it as long as you don't cross the line. It doesn't mean I was being unfaithful to my BF (who, BTW, I broke up with b/c he was cheating on me the entire time we dated).

I gather from the tone of your post you see something wrong with this? I am sorry, but that's incredibly judgemental & really holier-than-thou.

But then, I suppose your behavior in relationships has been flawless so you're entitled to judge others in that way.
 
Oh no, I didn't mean to hurt or judge you! I am sorry if it came across that way! Forgive me!

We do have different styles though, for sure!
Take best care!:)
