She threw my car into park...
Posted: 9/24/2009 7:17:53 PM
I once had a 87 Plymouth Reliant that I had to throw into park at about 40 - 45 MPH to avoid hitting the car in front of me due to brake failure... tranny did not catch til after I hit that car.

Mythbusters did the episode where they threw a Crown Vic into park to dry to stop it... it kept on rolling. (Now, the one with the speed camera... they couldn't outrun it, but the guys on Top Gear did do it. Basically, you have to be going 170+MPH.)

Now... I do know on some vehicles that if you can get the tranny into neutral or park while it's moving, you can get the ignition key out... and it's a dangerous thing to do because your steering gets locked.

(These days, I drive an '05 Dodge Magnum... I will NOT try any of the above in it!!!)

Some of y'all need to check the negativity towards the OP at the door before coming in as your reading comprehension seems to be sorely lacking.

A woman who dresses classy does NOT equal high-maintenance. He had already said that she had not shown signs of craziness prior to said mishap and that they had been dating for a while already.

Said date got off lucky... she would have had to find her own way home if she even tried to pull that crap in my car.

Slept with 83 people
Posted: 9/15/2009 9:24:56 PM

A few other guys made a comment that after 83 guys she would be big enough to park a truck in it. I'm like. OMG.

Has anyone been brave enough to meet someone with no pic at all?
Posted: 9/13/2009 5:43:19 PM
I don't do blind dates so I won't even consider anyone without a picture. What gets me are those folks who still try to get me to meet them even after the warning that I don't talk to folks without pictures, as if they are owed the opportunity to "change my mind."

Would you date someone still living with their Ex?
Posted: 7/25/2009 7:20:09 PM
I won't even waste the time with someone who lives with their ex... did that before (the woman never bothered to tell me that her ex was living with her... she thought that it wasn't any of my business.)

Funny thing is that she got jealous and possessive when I saw other women, though. Hmmm...

Why very few actual dates from this site?
Posted: 7/23/2009 9:20:38 PM
If you guys think Vegas is bad, try living in Reno... I've been on here for a couple years now, and I haven't met anyone from this site at all. Then again, I'm pretty picky so I generally won't make the first move (although if something catches my eye, I'll take a chance.)

What are some good dating sites?
Posted: 7/14/2009 5:32:24 PM
ok cupid is not a dateing site. only a site that attracts mostly young people. as from as meeting anyone goes, FORGET IT !! there's no finding anyone local. as to the one's that think it is why should one have to wait two years to find someone


I've met a couple folks from o k c u p i d. It's okay, but it seems to be overrun with the alternative lifestyle folks and atheists/agnostics.

singlesnet: met a couple folks from there in two years and not much came from it. Waste of time for me.

Yahoo: Mixed bag, and the matching system needs some work (I don't want to see profiles of people who aren't interested in black men.)

Joined Fling recently, but I'm not going to waste the money for a membership. I've been getting emails about folks viewing my profile, but you have to pay to view theirs.

I haven't met anyone from here at all.

How Many is TOO Many???
Posted: 6/21/2009 7:11:21 PM
For me: 2 cats MAX... any more than that, I keep it moving. Had problems in the past with "cat-women," due to some issue with them worrying about being judged or some anti-social nonsense where they need to get over themselves. No thank you, I will pass.

I don't hate cats, I'm just burnt out on them and would rather not deal with them.

Squirting...can this be learned?
Posted: 2/15/2009 7:43:26 PM
Personally, I wish the negative folks/naysayers would not bother posting here as this is an educational topic meant to INFORM.

The first time I had encountered anyone who squirted on a regular basis was shortly after getting separated from my ex-wife and she squirted with me 99% of the time when we were together (69 was fun with her on top because of this!!!)

I miss those days... we went our separate ways due to other issues.

These days, yes I do prefer squirters. And now that I've read the material on the subject, I'll have to see if I can get someone who hasn't before to do so. I'll let you know what I find (whenever that happens.)

3 Months, no sex?
Posted: 1/1/2009 6:08:18 PM
8 pages of thread, and everyone gave a bunch of differing opinions.

The woman did say that "she had no intention of making the relationship sexual".

She's stringing him along, and he needs to move on to someone who will return the affection that he wants and let her deal with whatever is going on in her head.

End of story.

NEW YEAR RELATIONSHIP RESOLUTIONS
Posted: 1/1/2009 5:32:25 PM
For me, it's to absolutely, positively, stop settling for less than what I want. And I see that I may need to update my profile here to reflect what I am truly looking for. (And if folks get put off by the new profile, so be it, I haven't met anyone from off here anyway.)

And I will have to do it with the other sites I'm on.

I'm currently taking a break from filling out the divorce paperwork, which should have been done a long time ago, but it seems I was always picking up the wrong set of paperwork.

Goal for the end of the year... to take away any reasons or excuses for what I am looking for to be able to reject me.

OK, do I think to much, or analyze to much?
Posted: 12/30/2008 9:56:34 PM


OP: In all fairness, re-read your post....msg 80.

She was the first person I fell inlove with after my wifes death! But to her credit at least she taught me I could fall in love again, and that's a good thing. And yes,I dated alot before her.

Yet, in your last post, you said,

I haven't had ANY past relationships " your many,many relationships". NONE, only Joan.

Sorry, but I would classify a past marriage and dating a lot, as many, many relationships!
And, I know that carol is coming to her friend's defense, for whatever reason.
But Carol is neither A nor B and should C her way out of it!
Just like I'm about to do.

Sorry, but dating does NOT equal relationship. He may have gone out on a lot of dates, but does not meant he ended up in relationships with every one.

I don't care for the he-said/she-said garbage, but I'm going to side with the OP on this one since he never trashed the person he dated at all. The man just wanted to know if he thought too much or over-analyzed.

Someone needs to tell Carol to step off and take the drama with her.

Gifted Woman? How's that working out for ya?
Posted: 12/30/2008 7:31:53 PM

By the time I hit college I learned to play dumb to get dates. Should I have had to no.
But being smart did not help my self esteem any. It has hurt that someone who I was interested in is intimated and there ego feels threatened by my intelligence, so I find I still have to dummy up at times. So I truly hope that woman coming out of high school today or in high school are more accepted for their intelligence than I was in high school. It will make life a whole lot nicer for them.


Back when I was growing up, I got a lot of enemies because of being more intelligent and smarter than everyone else around me. I was that kid who could pull straight A's and still get into trouble with teachers. (At the time, it kinda sucked being really intelligent AND rebellious!)

It also sucked that my parents pushed me so hard to succeed, I ended up finally breaking in high school (grades dropped, and I lost interest, etc...)

Over the years, I found that I had a hard time dumbing down for anyone. I simply refused to. I had always wanted to find someone who could appreciate me for me, and not feel intimidated by my intelligence. Granted, my self-esteem wasn't the greatest (still isn't; and I am convinced that life tends to throw the smarter and more intelligent people more curveballs than the Average Joe out there!!) but I still managed to find dates.

These days, I would love to find that woman I could engage in (AHEM!) "mental masturbation" with; that person who could connect with me cerebally.

I know, this topic was meant for women, but I still had to put my $.05 in (adjusted for inflation, of course.)

I had a point here somewhere, but I really do hope that the next time one of you feels the need to "dumb down" for someone, don't do it. You're not being you. A mate should be the one coming up to your level; not you going down to theirs.

I've rambled on, so I'll shut up now.

OP: Find someone else. She is going to cheat again on you and you can do much better than that. She has already done it once... and you should not have to deal with the constant nagging thought of whether or not she will do it again.

Posted: 12/29/2008 8:51:00 PM
If thinking and analyzing are in your nature, continue to do so. The ones who mind don't matter, and the ones who matter won't mind.

I do it myself, and it's saved me from relationships that I didn't need to be in.

Just keep that in mind. You found that the woman only wanted you for arm candy to keep her from being alone during the holidays. And I am pretty sure you can do better and end up with someone who will appreciate you for YOU.

The habits your ex had that make you glad its over.
Posted: 12/29/2008 8:00:30 PM
Her negativity and the way she puts herself in situations then complain about it later.

It was a relationship that started off the wrong way (out of jealousy over my getting a friend here to stay with me to try to better herself, never mind that same friend helped me out in the past when I needed it) so needless to say, it wasn't going to last.

Guess it also didn't help that I didn't exactly trust the gf because of her cancelling plans with me previously to go hang out with one of her friends (we were not in a relationship at the time, just friends with benefits.)

Now if only I can figure out how to stop attracting these really broken people...

Why do people say you have to love my dog/cat/animals
Posted: 12/18/2008 6:59:25 PM
I have met some strange animal owners out there:

There was one a few years ago who was away from home and mentioned that she brought along a pillow that her dog slept on because "she couldn't fall asleep without the scent."

There was another who had four cats and had some "psychological/mental/negativity issues" where I had to dump her. Funny that five years later, she is still posting lies and garbage about me on the "man-hating" groups/sites.

Then there was one person who I briefly talked to who had six cats and implied that she'd rather be around her cats than most people. Sorry, but I have a problem with that.

Now that I think about it more, no the hell I am NOT sorry!!!

My thing: if you have more than two of any animal and you aren't in a situation where having all those animals would be generally accepted, ya got some issues. Especially the cat folks!

(Personally, up til 2003, I seemed to have gotten a parade of cat-owners... I am so burnt out on cats that I really don't want anything to do with them, especially after the drama with Ms. Four-Cats.)

I would rather deal with dog owners at this point. They seem to be more level-headed.

So... while I do like animals (and most animals seem to like me,) if you feel the need to put in your profile that "You have to love my " Then I will pass you by. No harm, no foul, right?

I know I'm going to hated on, but so what?

dining scam
Posted: 12/18/2008 6:05:10 PM
I got to page 8 and stopping looking at the responses because too many dumb-a$$es were slamming the OP over his experience. Makes me wonder just how many of those slamming him would do the same to him as already had been done.

For those who feel the need to ridicule: which part of "The man is from a generation brought up with the ideal that the MAN pays for the date" did you not understand?!?!

Funny thing now is that if she planned on putting out, he probably would have just said "no thanks" and kept his dignity intact. I wouldn't blame him, the "dinner whore's" name is probably Gonnaherpesyphillaids by now.

OP: keep being the gentleman and doing things your way.

To all the haters: Go drown yourselves / drink some Drain-O / whatever. Be nice if the gene pool was cleaned up a bit.

Why do tall big men want tiny women ?
Posted: 12/17/2008 10:22:10 PM
And you know the funny thing? At 5'9", I would love to find some 5'11" or taller (there's a story behind it due to an experience I had once with someone taller than me and the way she looked at me in the bedroom was a major turn on and I've been hooked ever since.)

I just wish there were more taller women who would not have a problem with my height. I like BBW, too, but I don't have a problem with the "average-sized" woman.

(Walks towards the door while keeping to himself something about fantasies of being dominated by a bigger female in the bedroom...)

I thought people already did come with labels plastered all over them. I'm especially a fan of the girls at the mall who use their butts as a billboard.


I never did understand that one... or the one with the women having their names tattooed right above their rumps, for that matter...

rape or just stupidity?
Posted: 10/8/2007 10:22:02 PM



unless you felt threatnened then its not rape
you just regretted what you were doing


feeling threatened has nothing to do with the law, if he continued after you told him to stop, then that is rape. period.

people should read about the law before trying to hand out legal advice here.


In some states in the U.S., if the sex starts off as consensual, then someone suddenly changes their mind, legally it's not rape, but considered "regrettable sex."

(I believe that was put into effect because of the "woman orgasming and wanting the guy off her afterwards" thing. It was in effect in Pennsylvania when I was in high school (an assistant district attorney spoke to a class I was in; that's how I know.) )

Women saying they r to busy to spend time with u
Posted: 10/8/2007 6:45:05 PM

...but this week end is her last chance she is out the door if she dont make a effort.


I would not even waste another moment on her... just toss it like an old Band-Aid and move on.

Find someone else who has time for you... any person who cannot find the time to get to know someone, yet can find the time to go to the club and spend time around OTHERS is not worth the hassle.

You can do better. Walk away and don't say anything; if she really wants you, she'll get a hold of you (and don't hold your breath waiting for her, either.)

And while you're finding someone better, either chill on the heavy displays of attention or find someone who enjoys all that attention.
(I had to learn that one the hard way... screwed up getting someone I really wanted because of that... well, that and her flakiness and pre-existing anger issues over her ex played a part, too.)

Go enjoy Thanksgiving with YOUR family when the holiday comes around.

Okay... about the stuff you heard about Philly Phan:

Santa Claus got booed because he was drunk off his a$$...

A lot of the booing about Irvin stopped when folks realized just how serious the injury was...

"The 700-Level" sounds a hell of a lot more respectable than, say, "The Black Hole."

We are a frustrated group of people. And no, there is no Billy Penn Curse; just a bunch folks not getting the job done like they should be.

Would be nice to see the Phillies grab another World Series Title.

Is it just me...or is a good voice important?
Posted: 10/4/2007 7:33:05 PM
Good topic!

I had it happen earlier this year where I spoke to someone on the phone, and her voice completely turned me off (she was someone who I would have normally not given a second look to, but decided to take a chance on her anyway because she seemed like she was really interested in me.)

A few weeks ago, I talked to someone else on the phone, and her voice put a smile on my face.

Nice voices with accents really get my motor started.

Why are most men looking for Friends with Benefits?
Posted: 10/4/2007 4:02:34 PM
Friends with benefits...

I had one of those (actually, I still have the friend, just that distance now stops the benefits part) that lasted over 9 years. The underlying friendship (and yes, it was a REAL friendship) outlasted my one marriage and several of hers.

For me, friends with benefits is a real friendship (and you do friend things) where you have enough sexual chemistry to do it with each other... or at least in my case with her, she and I were too afraid to actually try a relationship with each other.

So, I do treat my friends as real friends, sex involved or not. The problem is that folks mistake the concept of friends with benefits for the concept known as the bootycall. The bootycall has no attachment... a FWB still has the friendship attachment.

Just need to know where I can improve it; I'm always looking to improve.
