Usually decent with ladies, but this one confuses me, what gives??
Posted: 8/21/2008 3:23:24 PM
maybe she can't figure you out... maybe she doesn't know if your just playing her or if you are looking for a relationship... here's an idea if you're "decent with the ladies"...ASK HER

Is honesty the best policy?
Posted: 8/20/2008 9:51:07 PM
i have heard a saying that also rings true..."honesty without compassion is brutality" and it has a lot of merit in many cases... many people will use "brutal honesty" as a weapon to emotionally beat up a partner or other people... some things just don't need to be said.. ie: a drunk gets himself killed in a car accident... do you tell a grieving mother that he deserved to be killed if that is what you believe?

Do men usually love their first wife the most?
Posted: 6/8/2008 10:24:50 PM
i can't speak for "men in general", but i know what you are saying is definitely not the case with me although it may be that a first marriage break-up is more traumatic than subsequent break-ups

Online Relationship Gone Bad
Posted: 5/9/2007 10:31:34 PM
just read the op's original post... no friends .. no family and in her fifties.. probably says more to me about her and inability to look rationally at herself than anything

is it so bad to want an older man?
Posted: 3/4/2007 5:34:10 PM
i notice that your profile says you are living together with your sig other.. does he know how you feel?.. how mature is it to be in a common-law relation and knowing you would like something else?.. is this fair to either of you?

well .. they say little girls marry their father and little boys marry their mother.. or someone who has a lot of their characteristics (physical or emotional or both).. it might be that both of these guys are simular to your father or father figure.. so, don't sweat it

i think i saw some stats one time that indicated that people who marry after living together actually had a higher divorce rate than those who didn't.. don't think there is a right or wrong answer.. just a choice based on personal values and morals.. if i am thinking that marriage is possible then yes i will live together

love without strings
Posted: 9/1/2006 6:33:54 AM
in a lot of the replies like sentio there is a wonderful theme about accepting the other person as they are, which i too feel is very important... but there is also a sentiment of " share our change together" , which is great but it is also one of those "strings".. what if they don't want to share this change... the biggest string of all in any true love is that it is recipricated in some way

love without strings
Posted: 8/31/2006 8:03:14 AM
sentio.. i really like the sentiment you express but even in your definition of "true love" it is contingent on that person "being who they are".. what if they change?..and as we all know people change, evolve, develop differentbeliefs and behaviors.. sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse and sometimes its just different, so loving someone just because of who they are is great if you can freeze time and keep them "that way" but most will change and we will constantly re-evaluate "our love"

Am I crazy
Posted: 8/29/2006 11:04:57 PM
i agree with mustang and the one he quoted... there was something in that relationship that the op was almost addicted to for lack of a better term.. most people coming out of those type relationships want to let everyone know what a great person they were to the other but usually wont get real honest about why they stayed.. it all sounds real nice and everything to say i wanted to help her blah blah blah... if she was butt ugly and horrible in bed how long would he have stayed... most guys in those type relationships find a women who in many aspects is easily controlled.. i'm not buying this nice guy thread/self pity thread either

Population and opportunity.. Does fewer people mean you should settle for less?
Posted: 8/24/2006 11:01:19 PM
the scenario you state may be a distortion in your own mind... when you ask "should i just settle for the first one that says yes"... i don't think that person would necessarily be a lower standard but you may view them that way because there aren't a lot of options... when you talk about lowering your standards are you talking about the standards you used with your ex ?... maybe the first one who says yes is the one you've been waiting for all your life and she can just see it easier than you... keep an open mind and you might be surprised

Should small silly lies be the decision breaker?
Posted: 8/23/2006 12:44:54 PM
i am one that thinks honesty is one of the foundations of any healthy relationship but seeing as how the op hasn't revealed the nature of the "white lie" i'll add this.. there is an identical thread going on where the guy asks the same thing about a women (apparently some women fibbed about her age by a bit) and seemed to think this was quite bad... looked at his profile.. said "no" under drug use... then on interests he says he likes "toking"

then i have to ask all who have posted here if they have ever told their kids or someone elses about the easter bunny, santa claus, tooth fairy or went along with it... ever told a friend, co-worker they looked good when they didn't or seemed like they needed some cheering up

so it still comes down to what the little white lie the op is talking about

Can you have a normal relationship with a psychic???
Posted: 8/23/2006 12:12:58 PM
"there is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguements and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance- that principle is contempt prior to investigation." herbert spencer

with that in mind i cannot dismiss someone like sylvia brown who although gets scrutinzed rigorously has never been shown, to my knowledge of any of the "carny" type things that some con artist do.. i think she is a truly gifted person.. i think if one is truly open minded then a relationship with someone "gifted" could be an amazing journey

pyke.. you are quite correct when you say "there is a noted difference between expressing views, showing an understanding of another perspective, accepting a point of view for arguements sake..."... the problem is that you do none of the above .. all i have seen you do is trash and belittle others views/beliefs with rude insults and no creative arguement... so what do you think the outcome of that will be?... someone just as rude as you will come on from another perspective and say that you are fat and rude and why would they want to adopt your beliefs if thats what it will produce .. and then someone else will come on and say your mother wears army boots etc etc... whats the point?

funny thing about how these forums show what people are like.... the op asks at the end of his post if because the women is not truthful about age is it ok for him to just treat her as a potential "screw"... well we don't really know for sure if she lied but we know that the op will treat a women like a peice of garbage if he feels justified

Post-modernism
Posted: 8/20/2006 5:06:31 PM
well philosophy says that the hardest thing to prove is a negative..ie:the easter bunny doesn't exist.... in a relational sense it would be very hard to prove (or impossible ) that "those two types would never work out" or "it'll never work".. so if i had to pick an absolute it would be that "anything is possible"

as most people know stats can be made to say what ever you want them to say... what the 5% refers to is how many people stay sober after they first walk through the doors of aa... how many people go to aa and are not even alcoholic ie: did something stupid and want to get the heat off... how many go to aa and leave but come back later... so your 5% really doesn't mean anything just another blah blah blah statistic used to try to prove an unprovable arguement... the one truth in philosophy is you can't prove a negative

well, you could have just said ..officially i'm baptised but i'm not practising... and no, i wasn't preaching, just pointing out that who you say you are in your public profile (an anglican) is not what you are portraying on this thread to some peoples way of looking at things and you have cleared that up by saying that you are not a practcing christian... BUT.. what do you mean , MY president!!!... as far as i know alberta has not yet separated and elected a president yet..lol... maybe i should get off this computer and go read a paper!!!

man behaving,, so far that is the first cop out i've heard from you so far is your blaming your parents for being a christian.. you say you were a babe , inferring that you had no choice.. BUT, you place it as yout faith in your public profile... now, any christian knows that once you are an adult being a christian is your choice and it is something that has to be in your heart... now you advertise yourself as a christian .. is this just a ploy to get a certain type of women or do you believe what christ taught... or just what suits your fancy... . so to avoid a simple question or observation as the earlier post by saying "don't go there" and "its my parents fault"... well , that sort of sounds like something that would come out of someone in jail who refuses to take responsibility for their actions. which is sort of ironic in this thread

melodic... how would you actually know... you drink so unless you are saying that you are an alcoholic and aa didn't work for you then you have never tried to quit drinking through aa or any other means so you have no idea if aa works or not..i need to edit this as what you said was aaa does not work as opposed to aa and you are right.. the american automobile association has a very poor rate on treating alcoholism

man behaving.. i've read all your posts and there is one thing i don't quite get.. on your profile you state anglican as a faith, a christian faith... now it seems to me that the church teaches patience, tolerance and forgiveness of sins... do you not believe God changes lives or any of the other teachings of Christ?.. in fact christianity teaches that all are sinners, including you.. do you see where i'm going with this?... and yeah you get some flack because it appears like you don't have a lot of compassion to those who have suffered some crap in life whether it was self inflicted or not.. of course you have the right to not date any one you want, but i don't think anyone said you should or have to... just a couple observations...

do you not find it ironic that christianity or God is actually what aa teaches is the answer to the problem of alcoholism.. they also state that the whole purpose of their book is to lead the alcoholic to a relationship with their higher power who they say that the person will soon come to call God.. and guess what?.. it works...lol

i've enjoyed everyones input and there is one observation that strikes me so much and that is that the other thread with the man as the one with the past received about 5 responses and this one has 4 pages and counting... as i have been on the forums for a while i remember when the "women who slept with 83 guys" started and it just seems like people get so much more emotional? judgemental? when it is a female who isn't, how shall i say, had a life on the straight and narrow.. i don't think there is a right or wrong answer.. as i said earlier i would date this person but everyone has their own preferences and comfort zones.. thanks for you input and hope to see more... ron

my apologies to those who didn't read all the thread as i pointed out later that this is not someone i am seeing or even know of and some of the details that some of you were wondering were pointed out... i did another thread in the "ask a girl" which was basically the same scenario but only with a guy as the one with a "past"... it got about 5 responses.. as you can see this thread is almost two pages now with a female with a past... it seems to evoke a lot more emotion from people.. are we more judgemental of women with a past than men?.. or do we just accept the man with a past more easily
