Dad's Advice to Son

Found this and thought I'd pass it along:

"My dad and I have never spoken much about women and how to approach them, talk to them woo them, and the like. This is probably because a) I was embarrassed by talking to my dad about these things and b) he had already given me the two pieces of advice I needed: 'Look good. Smell good.'"

Anyone's dad ever give them any can't miss advice?

Yes...Never rely on a man. Get an education. Make sure that you can support yourself. Be prepared because you never know what may happen.

Yep, Dad was a virtual endless pit of advice on women:

1) Always respect them
2) Never ever hit them
3) Never lie to them
4) They will be the sources of both your greatest achievements and your worst heartaches.
5) There will only be two men in their lives forever, their Dads and their Sons. You've only been allowed in while you're useful.

I'm sure there are more, but those are the ones in the forefront of my mind.

Never really got a chance to talk to my dad about any of the birds and the bees stuff because he was gone when I was twelve. All of my knowledge came from my mother. We had a lot of open communication about how to treat a woman.

As good as my mother was about all of it, there are just certain bits of information that can only come from a dad's point of view. And in reality, any information is only as good as the parent giving it regardless of the sex. A woman who's appeared on a recent 'Who dat be your babies' daddy' episode of Maury Povich is not exactly an expert on how to have a good relationship. Ditto for the fifth guy brought on the show after the last four received the relieving opening of the envelope that read....'you are NOT the babies' father........

I do think that if my dad had been around, he would have been able to warn me about the types I didn't want to be involved with, or how to really spot them. When you're educated at an early age from a woman who was always the 'perverbial lady', and who conducted herself as such throughout your life, you automatically assume that EVERY woman is going to be like her.....and because she trains you to treat ALL of them that way, it takes a long time to figure out why certain ones just don't respond to actually BEING treated like one. You have to get kicked in the chin quite a few times and loose your shirt before you start understanding. I think having a dad around to talk to would have prevented some of it. Which is why I'm a huge proponent of 'men's rights' when it comes to men being able to raise their kids, even if the two parents are divorced. As much as they like to pretend they can do EVERYTHING......no woman can be a dad to her son........

All women have at least one thing thats special about them. Its just tough to figure out what it is with some.

My dad on his death bed gave me advice that I knew was correct:


He didn't care much for my girlfriend at the time and he said "Don't marry her or end up spending the rest of your life with her."

It sounds harsh but he knew what he was talking about thats for sure. My girl friend (now ex) went in very different directions in life. Something like that really makes an impression on a 20 year old guy. It was one of the last things he ever said to me.

My father did not talk about these things: and my mom basicly said it was a duty and not very pleasent at that. Kind of warped my view, but have learned it takes two baby.... like the song. With this new knowledge and enlightenment I went to school and announced this to my friends I was so excited . Parents phoned my mom and shit hit the fan so learned not to talk about it either. So here I am on a forum I can talk about it wooohooo

As far as my kids ... oh yes very much they need their father. Kids model how to treat people by how their parents do and in someways that is scary. Need I say anymore. My children talk very openly about the birds and the bees with me and no question is wrong question. They will learn it from peers or the internet and that is warped. I said at times ask your father, but was informed that that will never happen in a way but also sad.

A fathers last words: Sit down here son I've got something to say, what my father said on his dieing day. Now to my own sons I pass this along. For my time is at hand and soon I'll be gone.

I have tried to teach you whats right and whats wrong. Be up right be honest be brave and be strong, be true to the friewnds that you've made, and never turn down the chance to get laid!

Do the young ones the old one's , the hot ones the cold one's. The skags and the hags, the free and the paid. Do the rich ones the poor ones the drunk on the floor one's .
If their ugly, son pull down the shades, but never turn down the chance to get laid!


Now boys I lay here my body all broke, I pray you be heeding these words that I spoke.
As I meet my maker I clearly now see, why all of your mothers are so pissed off at me.

So do the big ones the small ones, the short ones the tall ones, The street walking hooker, the cook or the maid. Do the flat chested screamer the big breasted big beamer, Never mind if she's furtile or spade.

Never turn down the chance to get laid...


Gee thanks dad!

My dad said to me once, "They shouldn't allow furriners to play in American golf tournaments!" He was also fond of saying, "I hate the Japs! I'll never forgive them! NEVER!"

OTOH, we both liked pie. Things even out.

Cheers!

my dad died when i was young but my grandfather gave me sound advice all the time!

"Mija, always finish your plate. its rude even when it tastes like crap."
"Mija, next time you get carjacked, gouge their eyes out first. then slug them where it counts."
"Mija no more carnitas for you."
"Mija, always work for the city or government. they have good benefits."
"Mija, never marry a man who cant shave properly. He's just s slob."
"Mija, never mix your whites with your colors. Your abuela dyed all my work shirts pink once."
"Mija never leave the house without your ID. You never know when you'll die. then how will they know its you?"
"Mija, don't trust men who pluck their eyebrows. They are all too slick for you."
"Mija, why don't you marry a nice accountant or lawyer? I hear they are boring as heck but have very nice boats."
"Mija never forget where you came from. and if you do, i'll haul your @ss back here so you can remember."
"Mija, Cover yourself. you look cheap."
"Mija, fight for whats rightfully yours."

Thank you Papi.

My friend E. told his sons like his father told him, and I liked it:that is that sex can either be one of the most beautiful experiences in the world, or one of the ugliest---make sure which you want before you try to get it.

My father gave me the best advice and I have found it to be very true. "Always get to know your girlfriends mother, because your girlfriend will turn into her mother, good or bad." There may be exceptions, but in 38 years I haven't seen it yet.

He wasnt talking about women but all I can remember at the moment is that he said

"It's always darkest before the dawn."

Metaphorically speaking, it means when you feel the worst a complete change and uplifting will be there shortly thereafter. I find it gives me hope.

Wow...so many of these guys here with their negative advice on a dating site looking for relationships: to those guys I say "please post your forum comments right into your profile so the geniune, good hearted women can pass you right bye...

OP, your fathers advice was right on.......

and I have to say my mom never gave any advice about men at all, but my dad had great radar for my brothers. He ALWAYS knew when they were dating the wrong kind of woman even if no one else could see it yet....wish he had that radar in reverse cause I'm flying blind here!!! LOL
