PS- My husband is a confident, sexy man. I swear confidence just seeps out of his pores. He is the sexiest man I have ever known partially because of this. Your type of "confidence" does not do that. Your type of confidence is good at picking up drunk chicks at bars and mall rats.


Ummm... if he's really so confident and awesome, why did he marry an ugly chick with a kid?

I call BS.

Sorry :P

Additionally... Mall Rats? Drunk Chicks at bars? The last girl I dated was an accounting major who had made close to 6 figures in her early 20s - before her it was a dentist working for the VA. I briefly saw a girl fast tracking through med school too.

I dated Miss Teen NC when I was 22. I don't live in your world. Seriously. I am a member of the social groups you have never belonged in.

At least now we know that it's not your fault you're ... homely. CP will do that. Tremors in the hands and effed up facial features seem to be the norm.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As for why I post here.... it's really simple, actually. I used to post more on Ask a Guy than anywhere else... but then the mods saw fit to neuter me to 10 posts a day.

That sucks.

This is where I go now to argue with people in a way that will not affect my real life. I still meet cool people off this site on occasion... even though as one of my friends put it, my profile says, "eff off, internet chicks." I STILL get emails from people in the forums based on what I type.... and I still have a pretty awesome life in the real world (well, as awesome as it can be in WV).

You know what... I honestly don't know why I still post here. For the most part, it's not like any new people post in this forum who don't tok lik diz aboot there 3 kidz wit 2 differant baby daddy's n they wanna jus know if men wil date them!.... and those people generally leave in about 2 days when nobody really feels sorry for them.

I think I've just been posting here because of habit. Seriously. It's not like I'm really adding anything anymore.... and I don't like enough people to really have fun posts anymore...

Hmmm.

I actually gave this some thought yesterday. I met a girl in the mall who was between a 9 and a 10. Absolutely fantastically gorgeous girl. One of the best looking women I've seen in a long time. She was funny, engaging, and we talked for a good 20 minutes. Right before she gave me her information, she told me she had two boys... and my attraction was just dead in the water. I still got her info, and I plan on being her friend, but as I was driving home I thought to myself, "self.... that's a shame."

I think that's the root of why I've been posting here.

Dissapointment.

Dissapointment with the world, with the fact that so many kids have to grow up without a dad... with the fact that there are so many selfish people who have health problems but STILL have biological children, knowing full well that their diseases will probably be passed on. Frustration with the fact that there are awesome girls out there I've met, but decided to change their lifestyle in such a way that makes them invisible to me. Women who chose to have a kid and clean poopy instead of getting an education and doing great things.

I realize that not all single mothers fall in this boat. And I realize that I have been blatantly unfair at times. However, I feel I did so as a direct counterpoint to the unrealistic back patting that some people tend to do for the new posters... who just want to hear that their 4 kids at 25 don't matter to potential suitors.

But they do.

Anyway, I suppose this is going to be my peace out too. I think I may head back to Ask a Guy where my caustic, hard-won wisdom is appreciated.

It was fun. Later.

Wow seriously? It must be your high IQ that would help you come up with something like that to say to somebody, or maybe it is your heroism that entails you to deliver such crude comments all the time? I'm just wondering what makes you think you are so gorgeous and sexy ( I have seen you state it a few times) I just see a chubby guy with a sort of okay face, not a great smile . I don't think it is your confidence that makes you believe this, I think it is your ego compensating for the fact that you are not "superior" you are actually not that great at all because your attitude and morale is disgusting. WOW

I've never said I was anything other than an a-hole. ;)

And see, the problem with women trying to insult men, is that women have no clue what it is that really hurts men. I honestly would be ok with being ugly as hell as long as I attract beautiful women - which I do.

Let me clue you in on a secret. How a man looks has very little to do with our self esteem. What he attracts does. I attract good looking women every day of my life, and before my x wife went crazy, she was a knockout.

Additionally, being told that my morality sucks by women who had kids out of wedlock doesn't have much of a sting either. That's like being told smoking kills by a guy who shoots up on heroine.

One last thing. Before you get all mad at me for calling a spade a spade, go back in the posting history. I HAVE NEVER made an insult personal until someone else went there.

It just seems a bit ridiculous to me that a woman would start attacking me personally for saying I would not date a single mom... when she's already married and really has so many holes in her armor she looks like the insult version of swiss cheese.

:P

-peace

If that was directed at me, I didn't have my children out of wedlock, I was married before I even had sex.

I was astonished what you had on your profile that is all, and some of the insults I have seen you ensue upon people... you said on your profile all you get is random messsages from fat chicks lol and that you don't like fat chicks and you don't like cougars and you don't date single Moms lol there are mail settings for some of your issues lol You just seem really really mean and I doubt that the attractive good looking woman are nice, because I don't know if I would date a guy that was so strong about fat chicks and cougars lol but hey that's just me, I'm in the clear because *tear* you would never date me because I'm a sz 7 not a sz 2 and I have a kid lol

and I was not trying to insult you ShallowHal I was trying to stick up for that woman you attacked lol

We are both going to cry I'm sure curiosity that soldier won't date us

Every post you write soldier makes you look more like an ignorant, insecure little boy. So keep them coming. I have never had a problem dating or finding a suitable man. I am the one married to a good man even with that ghastly child out of wedlock. You have no clue what circles I run with and I feel no need to drop names that any of you could search and pull up in google that I have personal cell phone numbers for. And as far as my looks, hon...you are a far cry from insulting me because I am probably one of the most vain, self confident women you will ever have the pleasure to come across. And shakes?!? WTH are you talking about? There are only certain times I shake and that belongs on the sex and relationship forum.

YOu never did answer...DO you live with your mother? I betcha do!

^^ My family lives 1800 miles away.

I'm done with this forum.

It brings out the worst side of my personality... and all in the name of internet arguments with people I don't even care about or respect.

I plan on going somewhere else with less hostility and other people to talk to whom I actually relate with. Once I started investing emotion into my posts, that's when I should have left.

Forum Ninja WILL come back! He just can't come out in Single Parents anymore... which actually kind of sounds funny if you verbalize it! he he

Fab-mom, if you would mutually like to despise each other, I suggest you do it in emails from now on. This back and forth on a message board is embarassing for both of us.

-8sf8
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VVV - No, it was not directed at you. I was thinking of the parents of an acquaintence, actually.

And ... emails. It's not that hard. I am sure you can figure it out... although... birth control is not all that hard to figure out either.....

It is only embarrassing if you care. Which I do not. Like I said...way too much stock and concern for a forum board. It's all entertainment and a quite effective stress reliever for me

I don't CARE enough to email you.

I've seen this happen many times on this board; people assuming a poster is directing their posts squarely at them, when that isn't the case at all.

^^^^Hmmmm dating Miss TEEN from any state throughout the US is QUITE the accomplishment soldier!....Wow....you dodged a potential bullet there didn't ya?
I guess your too young to have heard the phrase "a sweet sixteen will get you are hard twenty"..........I am sure you can figure out what I am implying by that statement.
The real truth about you, that is quite obvious to me, is that you are a short guy with issues that no woman can help you with....and it is a really sad thing you have to demean others in order to boost your self confidence..It is a really pathetic display of desperation I see you continuously act out with your antagonizing posts....but carry on if it makes you feel any bigger....but it will never make you TALLER......let go of that little man syndrome....but if you can't.... you can kiss my A$$ while your down there darlin!!!

Ummm... if he's really so confident and awesome, why did he marry an ugly chick with a kid?


oh poor little chubby man, i am starting to feel bad for you. i have read these post and have found you spew more crap than i have ever heard from one person. i understand that being short and overwieght sucks. but you being a overly aggresive person just to make yourself feel better does not impress anyone. i'm sure if you look back you would be embarresed of yourself, and if your not maybe you need to sit down and really think things over.
really now you go pick up chicks at the mall, you shouldn't be praying on children like that.
you make examples of the other girls you've dated.
example:


The last girl I dated was an accounting major

thats amazing that your so proud of this when the very person you argue with (fab-mom) has her bachelors degree in accounting. yet she is crap in your eyes. why because she was a single parent. remember that while being a single parent she not only took care of her child by herself, but also owned her own home, went to school full time and held a full time job at a prestigous accounting firm here in huntsville.
i would like to see you with all your made up great accomplishments try to hold that schedule together for 3 yrs. you can't. you know why because your a talker and not a dooer. i have been many places and met many people in my life and i know your kind. thats why i again i say i feal sorry for you and your delusions of granduer.

oh and before you get to it, yes fab-mom is my wife and i have adopted her child and they both have my name. i am a little overwieght but hell boy nothing like you are and i have plenty of yrs on you.
now quite playing make believe and go out there and find you a good woman and treat her like the man you could be. no one has asked you to date a single mother, hell thats not what i was looking for, but i wasn't closed minded enough to blow her off because of it. when you grow up and mature into a man instead of a ranting child you will understand these things.
good luck to you little fella

Wow, take a couple days off this forum to have fun in the real world and I come back and the discussion has taken a turn that I would never in a million of years expected....IQ's?!!!!

Good Lord, as someone said, an IQ is a measure of one's ability and that is all. Both my sister and I were tested in high school and scored high....my score was over 130 but I am a lazy biatch when it comes to school because I always found it boring as hell. I am a classic underachiever and I don't really care because I love the life I have. When I went to college I attended maybe 25% of my classes and still graduated with a 3.8 GPA. I had a lot of friends growing up until I hit grade 6 but that is another story. By the time I was in high school, I had friends again. Perhaps my parents did me a favour by not "pushing" me to reach my limits because at the end of the day I feel I have lived a very balanced life and continue to do so. I will admit that at times I do find myself wondering what if.....but it is my goal upon retirement to get my butt into university and audit some classes....my brain was and still very much is a sponge for information. My sister is reaching her potential and making the kind of money that shows it. She worked full-time with three kids under 8, married and went back to University to graduate a 4 year honours program with Honours.......she is more driven than I am because her self-esteem in tied directly to the amount of money she makes. Of the two of us though, I would say and she would agree that I am a much happier person.

Soldier does have a point in that confidence in men and women is perceived differently. I will admit that his confidence in himself was an attractive quality until he crossed over into what I perceived to be arrogance and then it lost a bit of its lustre. That being said, I still like him and find his posts most of the time comical and entertaining. I just don't like his posts where he is demeaning towards others for their life choices.....we all have skeletons (sure even you soldier), some of us can't hide our skeletons as easily as others and nobody really have a right to judge someone for the choices they made. The old saying about walking a mile in one's shoes comes to mind.

~obviously I am still very much a bleeding heart at the core of my being...a champion for the underdog but that is ok~

^^^ Did you ever forsee -me- being the underdog you'd feel lead to defend?

;)

lol ::hugs::

I'm not going to defend myself. It would just prolong the agony. I know I'm awesome, but trying to convince someone else on the internet of this fact who already does not like me is an exercise in futility.

^^^^LOL..nor are you going to answer any questions where you don't look like a *superstar* doing so?
It's easy to feel like a superior a$$hole when you never answer any of the questions your leading comments provoked....one word comes to mind when I read your posts...coward...aka..fraidy cat...scardey pants...wussie.....it all equals coward in the end..

m_church...don't ask a question you have already formated an opinion about. It is a tacky excuse to validate your personal feelings...Men don't deserve the luxury or gurauntee of tangible proof of what they can expect to get from dating a single mother...in fact it is childish and irresponsible to expect any kind of tangible "proof" from any prospective partner. If men like you need to negotiate a relationship before it progresses naturally...than perhaps men like yourself aren't ready to be in a relationship period.....just sayin

I am not going to say who, but there is one poster in this forum who I am really glad I met.

She was the one who single handedly destroyed ALL of my uncertainty about whether or not I wanted to get a vasectomy, or date a single mother.

You know who you are... and thank you. Please keep posting in this forum and convincing multitudes of other guys not to date single mothers with your man-hating, ranting, overall azzhattery, and unwillingness to support yourself or take responsibility for your own actions.

I salute you.

I'm not sure if you already had your vasectomy or not, but in case you haven't, when you go in for the procedure, have a picture of this poster in your hands so you can look at the person during the operation, lol!

I would, but I don't think that the pic she posts in POF is really her. Although the woman is holding a baby in the pic... and that would help.

Pregnancy is an STD I do not want. :/
