| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 10:33:09 AM | | You know I thought being married was great,even after going threw the hell of divorce due to her cheating,In my opinion standing outside the fire is not living,but rather a excistance.Yeah of course a man or woman that has trust issues should get them resolved before getting into another relationship,but having sex with random partners doesn't even come close to the love you feel for the woman whom you wake up next to everyday entangled with,the one who straightens your tie when you didn't do a great job putting it on,so many differen't great things about being involved and taking the plunge,I would not be hesitant at all about getting married or being in a serious relationship of course if i knew the woman loved me. | |

| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 10:43:27 AM | People could enjoy relationships more if they expected them to end.
Here are the three stages:
1. Discovery: Here is someone capable of being blind to my faults, and the sex is great.
2. Delusion: Life is good. It's great to sleep together every night and be doing things together. I am content and the future looks bright.
3. Dissatisfaction: Whatever magic was here has left the building. She looks restless and bored, angry, sullen and like an inmate plotting her escape. Time to have a garage sale to make room for the next one's junk.
Just know which one you are in and make the best of it.. | |

Well I can see you don't take a relationship to seriously,kinda doesn't involve just her being blind to your faults,maybe you should try to fix them if you know they are faults and you wouldn't have to have a garage sale | |

| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 10:53:33 AM | @Flapjack, Why not just continually stay in stage one? I mean, just skip right to the end and go back to stage one with someone new every so often? Stages 2 and 3 are worthless. | |
|
| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 10:55:52 AM | Stage 2 isn't bad at all. What's wrong with delusion? I could be more content with everything if I could remain deluded for longer periods of time. | |
|
| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 11:04:32 AM | | People only complain about the last stage, when things end. So it turns out the only problem with relationships not lasting is the way they end. The relationship is bound to end, so, the goal should be to end it well, not prevent it from ending. I agree that a garage sale is not very good. What is a good, cheerful way to grant someone their freedom once they make it clear they have run their course with you? | |
|
| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 11:07:28 AM | | A good way to end it . . . "Hey, hun. I know this great guy--he's a friend of mine you haven't met--and I've heard he's hung like a horse." That might end it well. | |

Just when I was beginning to think she's a sweetie, she then reveals herself as the black widow. | |

| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 11:25:19 AM | Ya472 There is no such thing, as "A Knight in Shining Armour", no more than, there is a women, standing at your back door, with only her coat on, with nuthin underneath. When was the last time, that happened to you? A Knight in Shining Armour, is only a myth. And if Tom Leykis is your hero!! You might as well take advice from Kermit the Frog. One is out to lunch, and the other is lunch. It would be like me taking advice from a women who was going to marry for the 6th time! Her advice would be to Love em, and leave em. Get what to can out of them, and move on. Grant you, there are women like that out there. There must of been a good reason, why she laughed, when you asked her that! What is your past relationship with this person? What happened in the past? Maybe, you should look back, and remember what happened between the two of you, for her to react the way she did.
I'm only responding to this, cuz this has triggered a memory of a similar situation.
I wish you happy fishing. in "fillet of fish"  | |

|
| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 11:31:13 AM | Which one Arri? Tom Liekus, or Kermit the Frog? | |
|
| Men and commitment Posted: 1/5/2006 11:42:22 AM | Joe, A lot of things work out in the long run. IMO, relationships just don’t happen to be among them
Sometimes I think Yam uses this forum as healthy venting so that he can go home to his SO and stay content and sane. You never know who people really are online, now, do you? Well, no you don’t. But you’ll have to take me at my word - that is not the case. Do you think I would have all this time to waste here if I had some woman taking up my time? | |
