I'm the real sucker fish!Page 1 of 2    (1, 2)
Just had to post here, my first posting too! LOL
So I met this man here and we hit it off right away, it was intense and I totally fell for him. Then I find out he's sleeping with a bunch of different women and the kicker is today.
I am babysitting with his grand daughter because he said he couldn't and her single mom couldn't find a sitter.
So what is he doing? He's out with another of his "friends" for the day while girlfriend sits and takes care of the granddaughter.
Now tell me, am I a sucker fish or what???
Not after today. I swear! LOL

Your 55 and you haven't figured this out yet!? Jeezus... Why are, what, oh forget it... You made your own bed, lay in it... Kids or grand kids dating meeting that is so far from wrong... If you knew he was sleeping with a bunch of women why on earth would you even agree to any of this? Ugh... Here I was thinking people got wiser as they got older, thanks for proving that not true...

55? LOL And he has already basically been a jack ass to you and now you are babysitting for this guy? How the hell are you even comfortable babysitting for some guy I am guessing you hardly know ?

I swear, this shit people do ......you are not his girlfriend, you are one of many.

Honey, you didn't hit it off, he pegged you for a sucker. And there you are, being one. Now, once you're done babysitting, get the hell out and don't ever do anything like that EVER again.

Seriously????? Sucker, oh yes !

I think you already know the answers to your questions?

Why on earth would you stay home and take care of someone else's responsibilities, whilst they are out having fun. I hope the mother is out doing something productive to assist her situation, rather than also be out having fun, because that would just be too sad..

This man is so smart
he found a babysitter and he is OUT having fun

Next
He'll bring his laundry to your place
and tell you he likes an apple pie for dinner too

Keep up the good work
The word will get around town
You'll need a stick to keep the men away

Edit below"I would do it for the daughter of an enemy as well."
W H Y???
Your need for acceptance
is that BIG
that you act as if you had no respect for yourself???

Babysitting for the daughter of an enemy is what you are doing
right now.

You do not have a clue, you are right
So stop dating until you get a clue
Because you are going to be taken advantage over and over
until you stop acting like a sucker

Then you have no right nor reason to complain, if you are willingly enabling them to take advantage of you.

I'm 55 but just started dating again a year ago and I haven't a clue!

Is it THAT difficult for you to set boundaries? Can you value yourself more than this? Do you want to be the easy option of little value?

Answering these questions for yourself is how you GET a clue. You will get the results that you allow.

Dating men has not changed all that much the jerks are just as prevalent as they were in HS. The good news is there are far more nice people out there than there are guys like him.
Finish your babysitting gig and lose contact with him.

If you found out he's sleeping with a bunch of different women before today, why on earth are you babysitting for him today? Why didn't you tell him to get lost?

I would question that response, you are probably a very kind lady, but ask yourself this. Are you really doing it for the daughter? No, me thinks...

I believe perhaps, you are doing it to show HIM what a real nice gal you are , so he will like you better. Please don't be so naive, as to think he gives a rat's ass about you helping out, he has his mind on others things.

Take yourself out of this situation and find someone who really appreciates you for who you are, not what you can do for them..

Yes, you are a sucker. The instant you realize he is "sleeping with a bunch of different women" you dump him. The instant! Also, get yourself tested for STDs.

Have you been out of the dating world for a long time? Because you need to be more savy than this. Learn to spot someone who is real and sincere; learn to avoid a player like this guy is.


I believe perhaps, you are doing it to show HIM what a real nice gal you are , so he will like you better. Please don't be so naive, as to think he gives a rat's ass about you helping out, he has his mind on others things.
Agree. Besides, OP, why would you want this guy to like you best, to choose you? He's a pig and a creep.

I don't think you're a sucker OP, I will think you're a sucker if you go back to this hump
Im willing to bet the farm ( if I owned one) that you've been married since the Flintstones and Bugs Bunny was a hit cartoon, You haven't dated much before you were married and now you're trying to get your feet wet dating isn't the same as it was when you were a teen?

I think you probably have a good heart and this guy knows it and your lack or shall I say inexperience with the dating world he exploited, you now know he's a pig, he used you and you basically kick him to the curb and start over, everyone learns from their mistakes, well the smarts ones do.

I think most of the experience posters and daters seem to forget.. that not everyone has the experience you folks has, when one has been married since Moses was a little boy wearing short pants things were different, today its do I get back ground checks, Psyche reports ,DNA samples, finger print analysis FBI/RCMP profiled you name it.

<div class="quote"> Now tell me, am I a sucker fish or what ???

I think my answer is or" what" ,for the reason "what" he may have in his mind is put out and trade..>>> There is no free ride in this town.

You are happy , that he is gaving you barah boom barah ding favor, so he wants you to return the favor...

I bet you baby sat on day time because the mom of his granddaughter comes home after work, 5:00 or 6:30 P.M. So he sleep with those different women on day time, I bet these women he is sleeping with are retired, with pension that they can afford to have sex and sleep in the day time.



Chill out sistah,you already paid your dues, move on and find a boyfriend who is sexually devoted to you.. I smile on the word >intense. :>)

It makes for a great story. Yeah, you got played. But all it's cost you today is an afternoon - and you can embellish it when you tell the story.

You are doing a nice thing for the single mom.

But once I found out he "couldn't" because he's on a date, I would start calling him and texting him incessantly asking questions about the girl and house rules and whatever. Finding excuses to annoy the crap out of him. Then, when he gets home tonight, if he sees you, you tell him to find another doormat. If the mom gets home first, then you leave a note for him telling him he's been BLOCKED/DELETED/IGNORED. And do that.

I dont know why you're laughing about this,Op.
He sounds a totally insensitive,shallow jerk to *me*.

Please show a little respect for yourself and dont allow him or anyone to USE you like this.

He's hauling himself outta some woman's bed and thinking what a FOOL you are.

Yes, I agree emphatically. This guy is a jerk. He's thinking of you as a fool. Have more pride and self respect than this; don't let yourself be put in this kind of a situation again.
