wonder why that is so difficult to understand, oh well i tried.
It's not that they have trouble understanding what YOU want, they just can't understand what you have to offer that would make you think you'd get it....

Embarrassing moments brought to you by your kids
Posted:
11/20/2009 5:26:34 PM
I saw a funny one a few years ago...
A very attractive woman was carrying her toddler down the main street of a town I was in... It was a bright hot sunny afternoon.... people everywhere...
The only thing was she hadn't realised, her toddler's hand had popped the buttons on her shirt... creating a very large gap, giving a totally unobstructed view of her breasts as she walked briskly along......

Male ED
Posted:
11/20/2009 1:04:50 PM
I think it's definately on the rise... (or not, so to speak.....)
1... Men use condoms more... and there are enough threads relating to condoms lessening the sensation etc to make me think that's a part of it.... if the poor thing ain't feeling it, it's going to lie down again....
2... Obeseity and poor lifestyle...
3... Exposure to porn... You look at the average woman in porn or even in the media, then compare the woman on the bed infront of you to that, and in a lot of cases, the poor woman on the bed is going to come up short in comparison...
4... Availability... Sorry, it's so damned easy to get sex, there's less of a thrill or excitement to get it... anticipation is a big part of male sex drive... It's as easy to get laid as it is to get a hamburger... takes away a lot of the excitement....
5... Distractions, stress....
6... Drugs and booze...
7... Longer work day.... Hell, you get up at 6:30, go to work, get home at 8, go out dinner and dancing until 4 in the morning... it's going to catch up to you when you hit the bed.... I know when my days used to end earlier around 3 or 4pm I ha a lot more energy for sex....

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?
Posted:
11/20/2009 12:01:15 PM
Church: I'm happy you're happy with who you are with.. as long as your happy, you will.. well, be happy with her. In the meantime, you forget that you have disclosed that your g/f has many issues due to the dynamics of her previous swinger lifestyle and the abuse she endured from her ex. You love her, so her "imperfections" are invisible to you.. they may not be to someone who doesn't love her, Using your criteria.. they would rule her out strictly based on her previous lifestyle ..
Well, this is a good question and it has been brought up before.... So, to answer.... I got to know her over a period of time... I met her several times for drinks, and dancing and dinner and we talked a lot. I got to know her.... and to understand her. Once she and I realised we had a potential for a relationship, she sat me down and we had a long talk about her previous lifestyle... She wanted me to be clear on what I was getting into and how it had affected her, and her health... As a result, I was able to make a well informed decision based on what she told me... At the same time, while I was bothered by the situation, I also recognized there were several other factors involved... that put it in a different light....
I aslo saw her side of things... Yes, there were a lot of issues... and some it took us a long time to work through.... some were expected, some were totally unexpected...
Probably, I was the only one able to deal with her, because of who I am... and what I've done and all that.... I've been naive, I've been jaded... I've seen the good and the bad.... maybe my heart is hardened to the point that I can deal with it... There are things in there that would make many women kill themselves...she's told me before that if I hadn't come along she would have.... At times, I feel I have been rebuilding her... one small step at a time....
Sometimes talking in here in POF is what keeps me sane and has kept me strong enough to deal with some of the things she and I deal with.... so if people want ot hate me, or shoot me down for what I type, who I am or whatever.... Frak 'em... I know she loves me, and I love her and that really is all that matters at this point in my life....
Tell me.. If you had, had first date sex with her.. would you hold her in lesser esteem? Would you have only allowed yourself to perceive her as a support system for a vaj, even while knowing how wonderful she is and how compatible you both were.
Well, aside from the fact that I won't have first date sex with any woman, nor have I in years... as I believe in getting tested first etc... I won't trust my life/heath to a condom...
If we rule out that statement and we had actually had first date sex... I honestly don't know how I would have felt.... I probably would not have stayed interested long enough to get to know her.... and so forth....
A lot of people are seeing my lack of interest as a virtue thing... and this is a mistake... it's more of a reaction to the fact that having sex with a woman too readily takes away that sense of challenge, the pursuit, the adventure...
That's why I gave up being a player... there was no more interest, it was too easy and became suffocating.... It was like being on a diet of fast food.... for a while, I even ended up leaving the women I had picked up, at the bar, or cancelling dates... it had gotten to the point that I didn't really care if I took them home with me... just knowng they were willing to let me take them and fcuk them was enough... then even that got boring....
Then too, I've seen the other side of it.... I've held lady friends while they cried themselves to sleep, hurt that the guy that had seemed so promising had only wanted sex...and had dumped them afterwards... There is nothing quite like getting a phone call from an Ex girlfriend, to come get her, because the guy she thought was Mr. Wonderful kicked her out the door the morning after sex, and told her she was never to call him again. Or the Ex girlfriend who told me her new boyfriend gave her an STD (again, why I don't trust condoms)... and apparently was also seeing another couple of girls.... Driving her to the clinic was not fun...
Women are for the most part, woefully naive about men.... They're often far too trusting and far too willing to believe.... The most naive ones are often the ones who think that THEY are in control... that THEY know what they're doing.... even when I was a player.... they were the easiest to deal with.... Esentially, they think they're the Fox, but they're really the Rabbit.... they just don't know it...

HST
Posted:
11/20/2009 11:10:39 AM
this was a federal program and it ended April 1, 2007.
so much misinformation in this thread... *sigh*
The GST (federal) aspect was ended then... however, provincial tax was still rebated....
http://www.thestar.com/news/ontario/harmonizedsalestax/article/726601--tourists-to-take-hst-hit
In a blow to Ontario's struggling tourism industry, visitors will no longer be able to get provincial sales tax rebates on goods purchased here once the HST takes effect.
The Liberal government introduced the bill Monday that, once passed, will ensure consumers are paying a 13 per cent harmonized sales tax as of July 1.
Lost in the controversy surrounding the tax, which blends the 8 per cent provincial sales tax with the 5 per cent federal GST, is its impact on tourism.
Thanks to federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty's elimination of the GST visitor rebate program on April 1, 2007, harmonization has forced the province to scrap its refunds to tourists from abroad.
so much misinformation in this thread... *sigh*
Uh huh... I agree....

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?

By your math, you should be simply good fvck material, but then get discarded when a "purer" man with better "morals" come along.
I agree... and it's happened...
What makes the woman you are with now, so much better, as a SO?
Well, she's one of the kindest nicest people I have ever run into in my life. She is a fabulous, well-spoken, and interesting person. Her interests are extremly diversified and she is open to new concepts, ideas and learning.... We click on many levels. We enjoy the same things, we dance well together.... we like each other's cooking... we have mostly the same hobbies... my friends like her... and my kids like her... My son has told me heconsiders her to be like his own mom....
I have strong physical attraction to her, and sexually we're very very good together...
Being that you would not stick around with your FB's long enough to live with them, how do you know that they would not be a better overall fit for you?
Well, for a start, I still know many of them... I see how they turned out.... so far, I have seen nothing to make me wish I had stayed with any of them. In fact, a few I have thought, that I was so very smart to move on....
Several ended up cheating on their husbands, a couple are now obese... a few are dead... three have minor to serious mental conditions.... 2 have serious issues with booze... yup... no regrets....
And why is your SO not holding you to the same standard, as you hold women?
She seems to be.... Probably because I have a lot more to offer as a person than being just a life support system for a penis....

Acquire?
Yeah, I know... but I had a late night last night and I was still half-asleep when I typed it... couldn't think of a better word at the time........
Women, who know they want YOU, and no one else, do not make it difficult for them to be "acquired" by you.
Neither do drunken women in a bar...
That's incredibly insecure.
Seeing as a woman can get laid by virtually any male, to think that she's approaching you, simply because of the convenience that you happen to be available, is most amusing.
How odd you would think so...
You want a woman who's just not into you?
I said I wanted a woman who is a challenge to keep.... In other words one who is intelligent enough to realise that a relationship changes day to day and that sitting on the couch slowly vegetating is not a lifestyle.... So one who wants to be stimulated by the relationship and not just let it fall into a boring so-called existence of mindlessly living being together because it's a habit......
If someone needs to "work" at keeping someone else, they're not a good match.
I "work" at whatever I do. I don't just let it stagnate... Nothing worth having comes for free... and you only get out of a relationship what you're willing to put into it...
If someone doesn't "work" at keeping their partner, then in my mind they don't care....
I can tell by how a woman talks to me, and how she fvcks me, exactly how interested she is in me.
How odd....
That would imply that you have first hand experience at how she fcuked other guys, so that you could ascertain that she is doing it better or worse with you than with those other guys... otherwise, you could mistakenly think how it felt to YOU was an indicator of how it felt to her... (and to those other guys) When in fact, what you perceive as great, she could be just putting in a ho-hum effort....(pun intended) and you just have no comparative experience....
As for how she talked to you, well, again, if you don't know how she talked to those other guys....

Her Orgasm
Posted:
11/20/2009 8:45:50 AM
Nevertheless, what do you men think? Do you think women are responsible for their own orgasms?
I think women are responsible for their own orgasms... as are the men... and both are responsible for each others....
If you're just using the man for an orgasm, with no 'responsibility' from him... you're just masturbating.... (likewise for the guy, using a woman's body to get off into, is just masturbation....)
Sharing the 'responsibility - I hate that word in this context but can't think of an alternative right now....
Sharing the 'responsibility' is why sex is a sharing and intimate moment... having someone kindle, help, nurture and prolong an amazing orgasm, that you can't otherwise reach or even imagine.... Now that's the better way....

You might be dating women who are dating out of desperation, and the idea is to, "keep a man".
Yes, I've met more than a few of those... and it makes me run the other way when I encounter one... Needy, desperate woman are often the ones who are the easiest to acquire....
However, I want a woman who instead, wants me for me, rather than just because I'm available.... I want a woman who is a challenge to keep and will work as hard to keep me as I will to keep her. But she has to want to keep me because I interest her, not because she needs me, or is too scared to be on her own...If she hasn't got her life together, or she's 'dependent' on me for anything, then I don't want her... ( I realise that may not sound quite right but I think you probably get more or less what I mean)
I own my sexuality. I am a sexual being, and I will not beggar down to other people's standards.
Oddly enough, I have exactly the same view.....

People, why against the rocking chair on the porch?
Posted:
11/20/2009 8:28:31 AM
My Girlfriend and I have had this conversation many times...
We want to be sitting on the porch, gently swinging, or rocking and holding hands in our old age....
So for us, the rocking chair is a goal... a sign of completion....
Maybe try doing it now a bit more often? It’s very healthy, I think. One of you may not make it to “old age”, and you will miss out on it.
That's very true and we're both aware of it... We spend a great deal of time together in in that way. We have more than just the rocking chair...
We sit in the bathtub for hours to do nothing more than talk....
And by the fire...
And by candlelight...
If there's one thing we have learned, it's to sit and listen to the other person and to simply hold hands can be as amazing a way to spend the evening as anything else...
And the sex afterwards is amazing...

Sex in the beginning of a relationship is as much of an application process as the rest is.
And like most applications, it's tailored to get you the job...
So you might meet a woman who just blows you away in bed, she's the sun the moon and the stars....
So you start a relationship with her, thinking sex is going to be great, only to find out, that once past the probationary period, she becomes like a worker getting into the union....she says "Not my job...." or "I'm on my break...." or even worse... "Do it yourself...."

HST
Posted:

Its not gonna cost anyone more if thats what your thinking.
Most people don;t understand this and figure its gonna cost more for stuff.
Sorry its not.
Sorry, you're missing a few key points...
Many items have GST only and not PST at the moment...
In Ontario the tax will immediately add 8% to the price of gasoline....
Likewise to Heating costs, water, electricity
It will also add 8% to service charges....
This will negatively impact companies that provide specific services (ie graphic design, accountants etc....) This is expected to increase offshoring and many companies will hire companies from out of the area to avoid paying the extra tax component....
After the transitional period, 8% will be added to the cost of trips, funerals, newspaper and magazine subscriptions....
Tourism will also be affected as currently tourists who return to their own countries can apply for a portion of tax spent in Canada to be rebated... This will no longer apply, effectively making Canada a less desirable tourist destination...
Also, the problem that has not been thought out is that the costs for trucking and service calls for equipment (ie forklift tuneups etc.) will also rise 8% on top of the trucking industry rolling in the extra fuel cost as part of the price of shipping...
Also, the biggest costs to the manufacturing sector are electricity and natural gas.... these will now increase 8%....
At the same time, workers will now start asking for higher wages to offset the increased costs they will encounter....
Now, granted, there will be personal income tax benefits to offset part of the added costs of the HST. However, these will make little or no difference to the unemployed, underemployed and to welfare recipients and seniors.... You have to have an income to get an income tax rebate....
The supposed rebate cheques are only $1000 for a full family with two working parents. In the case of single people those rebate cheques will only be $300. Likewise single parents will not recieve the full $1000.

Why don't men date single mothers...the answer
Posted:
11/19/2009 7:05:03 PM
I think that it's a crock that men don't date single moms. Almost every single mom I know has a BF. Just my personal observation.
I think it's easy for a single mom to get a boyfriend, especially if she's attractive...
The problem is that a lot of those boyfriends only want to be boyfriends until it gets too serious... then they often move on...
It's hard for a single mom to determine if the guy is serious, or just seeing her for the sex.
And also, I know from experience, dating a single mom can be good at first. At the beginning the kids are open to you for the most part... there's no hassles... often the guy doesn't even meet the kids for weeks or months...
Her schedule can be good for a guy... not too smothering.... he gets to go partying, hit the bars, hang with his friends.... while she's doing the mommy thing...

I'd like to know how their dating practices and philosophies are actually working for them.
And so, OP, and Camper, I re ask my questions above.
Yeah, I'd like to know the answer to that also.... (That would make a really good topic for a thread)... and how do they define "working for them"....

Yes you have a disease, so now put your pecker on the table and hit it hard with a hammer. That will teach you. And every time you think of those photos, go back to the kitchen, hit your pecker hard with a hammer and say "Thank you sir can I have another."

Dating a Single Mother - Advice
Posted:
11/19/2009 4:08:30 PM
I'll lay off on posting what I usually do in threads of this nature...
My advice... Think very carefully if this is what you want to do...
1... Check out your legal obligations. In many areas, Canada, for example, there are laws that may require a man who gets involved with a single mom to be on the hook for support for her children, even if he is NOT the biological father.... Be very sure... don't ask a buddy, get proper family law/legal advice.
2... You do realise that while this plays out, you are possibly limiting your options for kids of your own... each kid, costs more.... and you may also find she may not want anymore kids... as the kid gets older, it gets less and less likely she will want another... that freedom of getting the kid out of the house and not needing a babysitter/diapers etc anymore can be a big temptation to not have more kids.... including the fact most people do not want a large age range between offspring...
3... Your family/friends and so forth have to be on board with this... It's easy to say, they don't matter, but often they do... a family sniping at your lady all the time because she's a single mom can over time wear away at an otherwise good relationship.
4... The Bio-father can be a big problem... they have rights and they get to have a lot of say in what you can or cannot do with the kid... ie if you were to be living with her and the kid...you might not be able to move, or leave the country without his permission....
5... There will be times when the kid is going to be a real issue... he may not like you....
You might have to get used to hearing "You are not my father" in response to everything....
6... You will have virtually no say in rules, discipline, etc in the household...
7... If you're not ready to commit 100%, then get out now... otherwise it will be hard for everyone but especially the kids....

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?
Posted:
11/19/2009 2:26:22 PM
Pick up sex (as far as I can see) is a completely different animal then Sex on the first DATE.
Sorry, I disagree....
To me a first date or a pick up, is still someone you don't know...
Well then lets recap: According to you the only difference in length of time you remained together with some of the onese that you picked up and fvcked is the fact that you lived with the ones you waited 3 months to screw. These 'virtuous" 3 month'ers faired no better as long as the length of time you remained together as they're no longer in the picture either. You waited "longer" with your current girlfriend because you needed to to make sure she didn't catch HIV from her ex.. so it's not like you were any more virtuous in that situation than you were in any of the others.
Well, let's recap some more...
It had nothing to do with being virtuous...
It had more to do with remaining interested long enough to want to have a relationship with them...
It had more to do with other issues... I still get along with 2 of them that I see frequently (we have kids together).... and still get along well with all my Ex's when I do meet them....

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?
Posted:

I thought we were talking about first DATES.. not pickup sex??? Ya know, dates where you've had some time to interact whether on line, on the phone in person, through group activities, mutual friend introductions that type of thing ~ A DATE. .
Sorry, I only ever asked out a few women in my life... Then it would take a more traditional approach I suppose.... but generally, I'd meet a woman at a bar or a party or sometimes pick up a girl at a park or somewhere in town and take it from there....
How long did you wait before you had sex?
Well, I'd say probably it was about 2-3 months on average.... my current g/f we waited even longer....

You were a PLAYA, Church.. You would have dumped them for another girl whether she fvcked you on the 1st or the 50th date.. It was who you were at the time..
Sure I was a player... but I was still looking for someone to settle down with.... I actually did end up in a few long term relationships as well.... When I found someone to keep me interested we stayed together. Lived together for years....

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?
Posted:
11/19/2009 12:47:19 PM
The women you slept with on your first date(s) you asked out because you were (at least somewhat) sexually intersted in them, and you had sex with them for that same reason. You wanted to have sex with them, you weren't forced. Is that not so?
Actually for the most part I didn't ask them out. I never really had a problem meeting women. So most of the time I'd just meet a girl and we'd end up in bed the same night. Generating enough chemistry to get a woman into bed was no problem, any fool can do that.... We'd hang out together for a few hours, day or weeks or even longer if they were interesting enough to keep around. Sometimes I'd just keep them around to have someone to take to parties or have on my arm for a while. Some were a lot of fun to party with or perhaps they had interesting friends or whatver... I was a social animal and I enjoyed being around people....
Eventually, I'd meet a girl who was a little more of a challenge, and a bit more intelligent or more interesting and I'd start dating her more seriously...
And besides, if you say, in reference to sex, "Ok... so that's all there is...." I say you are doing it wrong. You are talking about sex - the very thing that propelled you to ask out those women on the first place. If you feel there is nothing special about sex, or "just sex", what drives you to ask women out in the first place? What's the initial attraction?
Simple, I wanted a woman who was more than just a life support system for a vaj....

If two people are honest about wanting a monogamous FWB, it's very possible and easy to manage actually.
I agree...
However, the caveat is "If two people are honest"
All too often one or the other is not honest...
The abundance of threads on POF from people who are unhappy in FWB's is proof that a lot of the time it simply doesn't work... Sure marriage in North America has a claimed 50% failure rate.... but what I've seen regarding failed FWB relationships seems to be approaching 98.9%....
The same complaints over and over...
1... One person was monogmaous the other wasn't
2... Developing feelings for the other person...
3... Suddenly getting dumped because the other person met a new love
4... Losing the 'friend' part too when the FWB ended....
5... Losing the frienship because the other person's new love doesn't want the former FWB around....
6... People who only entered into a FWB because they hoped it would lead to a romance/relationship later....
7... People who didn't realise what thy were getting into...
And so on....
Don't assume the worst in others because you yourself couldn't see being in a FWB.
I sit around and listen to my buddies. Some of whom are in FWB's... Some of whom are not.... Most of my buddies are happily married and have been for years....A couple are married and have women who are their FWB's(that think the guy is single and monogmaous too....) on the side....
So far, I've not seen much to dissuade me that my opinions are not those of a large number of men...

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?
Posted:
11/19/2009 7:16:55 AM
I am so heartily sick of hearing how a woman who sleeps with a man she doesn't love, or sleeps with a man on the first date, means that she has no respect for herself.
Well, considering on a first date, you usially don't KNOW the person... You might not know his real name. He could be married... He could have an STD(s). He could be a complete wack job. In other words, you have no guarantee he is who he says or who he claims to be and you're putting your life and your health in the hands of a total stranger.... Now explain to me how that is showing respect for yourself... Show me how that shows you're a discerning person. Show me how smart that is...
Actually my current bf and I slept together early on and we're in a loving relationship that has lasted 2 years. If we break up, it will have nothing to do with sleeping with him too soon.
I've slept with a few women on the first date. I still dated them...sometimes for months or even a year or so... Sure, free sex and they were probably fun to hang out with... I just simply crossed them off the long term list because I was NO LONGER INTERESTED in them... Once I'd had sex with them, it just felt like "Ok... so that's all there is...." There was nothing more to keep my interest accumulating...
I never told any of them it was because we had sex on the first date or so forth... It would always be that I'd dump them for another girl, or tell them it wasn't working out etc...

Wants to know about past relationship
Posted:
11/18/2009 9:34:44 PM
I'd tell him to back off or go away.
No wonder so many people on here are single...
That being said, if the OP was a guy talking about his Ex who was in jail, every woman on here would be DEMANDING to know every detail...
It's funny, when a man asks, it's called controlling...
Whan a woman asks, it's called being careful....
Now, in my case, I'd want to know for several reasons....
1... Is it possible he might get out and you guys get back together...?
2... What was he in for.... ? car theft is one thing.... violent assault on the boyfriend of an Ex is another....
3... Does the Ex know it's over....?
Five weeks? I wouldn't even tell a man where I lived after only five weeks.
You know, in five weeks, many people on here will have had sex with their new partner several times.... that might be easier if the guy knows where you live....
Hell, they might have even had dinner together or even been picked up for a date....

Sexual compatibility is very important,
I don't get this sexual compatability crap.... I can't recall a woman in my life that I didn't enjoy sex with.... Sure a couple of times when we were starting out the relationship, the sex wasn't as good as it got later on.... but seriously, I've never met a woman who I wasn't sexually compatible with.... to me, part of great sex, is about LEARNING new things too... either a lot of these people looking for compatability are really bad lovers, or they're bad teachers.... because otherwise it's fixable... and usually quite easily...
And anyone who judge the sex by the first few awkward times and determines whether or not they're sexually compatible by it shouldn't be having sex in the first place because they're too dumb to be allowed the chance to inadvertantly breed.....

I dont want him to think he can just come back into my life again and act like everything is fine. any sugguestions any one
Well, my G/F and I were broken up for over a year...
The way it worked for us was a combination of things...
1... The original issue is no more....
2... We talked, communicated and made a concerted effort to UNDERSTAND what the other was saying....
3... We set out rules for the short term.... things we would talk about, things we would not allow between us (ie recriminations... or reopening old wounds)
4... A time limit to decide if it was working or not...
5... We WORKED AT IT. Both of us. Very hard.
6... And we didn't give up

There’s a difference between love making and sex. And sex is something you should be good at it
The difference between sex and love then is that sex is a biological function... you don't have to be good at it... that would be like saying you need practice to know how to eat....
Making love is the thing you should be good at.... not sex.... any fool can fcuk...
Sex is to making love, like McDonald's is to a fine meal....
Sure it will take care of the pressing moment... but later you realise it's junk food....
And yes, there are people who are very happy with McDonald's.... but really, would you want to eat with them for long?

Hooked on having a FWB?
Posted:
11/18/2009 4:16:51 PM
If any woman does a FWB she is an idiot. Once in a while I can understand.
But to be doing that regularly as a free prostitute? She would have to be mentally
challenged to be doing that.
I can't imagine saying to some guy "you can use my body for your sexual needs
whenever you want because we are friends". It sounds so sad and degrading
for the woman.
Yeah, the stupid part is that if it was a guy going over and always mooching her food or her beer, she'd kick him to the curb... but using her vaj as a cum dumpster... sure no problem...

Is it Wrong to call a woman handsome?
Posted:
11/18/2009 2:18:40 PM
Some women can best be described as "handsome". It doesnt mean that they are a lesbian, it just means that they are not exactly feminine looking, but they are still attractive...
Well, I have used the term myself and not in an insulting maner either... to me it means attreactive in a very special way...
According to the dictionary, it's meaning can include:
marked by graciousness or generosity
having a pleasing and usually impressive or dignified appearance
I've used it to describe a lady who is turned out in a special way, as in say a "dress uniform" or perhaps specific attire relating to what she does... ie what she might wear if competing at an equestrian event.... in those cases, beautiful, pretty, cute, etc, would NOT be appropriate...

Getting f**ked is easy. Finding a compatible partner is another.
Exactly.... It's very easy to find even a reasonably good fcuk.... Unless the guy has major physical issues, like morbidly obese or a stench like a dead body.... he can get laid... and for women it's even easier...
Now finding a person who is worth having a relationship with, now that's a lot harder...

Frankly... every man Ive slept with... Ive been far more "experienced" & "interesting" sexually than they were.
So I'll say this...
I can work on a good sexual relationship with a man I have feelings for...
What I cant change is a guy with a sh*tty personality who I just dont like... and values that are different to my own.
There is a lot of truth there....
What a lot of these "Test drive" the woman and "sexual compatability" guys are really clueless about is that while they're "test driving" the woman, SHE is equally capable of determining that the sex is not good enough... And I'd venture to say, it's easier for a woman to be "good in bed" with a man, than for a man to be "good in bed" for a woman. women don't have to worry about, "brewer's droop, ED, premature ejaculation, ( I ain't ever heard of a woman getting dumped because she orgasms too quickly...), stress, performance anxiety, physical issues such as small size or inadequacy... Let's face it, men may talk up a big storm about how great they are in bed... but we're only legends in our own minds for the most part....
It kind of makes you wonder how many of these guys who want to "test drive" are getting dumped afterwards..... And of course, women will rarely if ever, tell the guy something like he wasn't good enough in bed, so it will be something safe and less likely to damage fragile male ego's like "my Ex and I are getting back together", "I'm just not that into you", "It's just not working out...", "I'm becoming a lesbian..."(LOL)....

Posted:

First, I don't care about losing most people's respect. They more than likely wasn't that important to me anyway.
2ndly Shit happens. I ain't worried about that, I won't justify that. But shit happens and I chose a guy and sexed him without much thought to the future of my relationship or the kids. Marriage was on a humbug. I fly here, I do this, I do that. If it works it works. If it doesn't it doesn't. So be it. Pretty much how I live the life.
The best laid plans.... are always torn up with a jackhammer. That's if I bothered to plan at all... and a lotta times I don't. I fly around, and whereever I land is where I land. I deal with it to the best of knowledge and ability.
Where ever I go.... there I am.
Well, I think this pretty much is an example of the premise of the thread...

Sex on a First Date - Does it Kill a Potential Relationship?
Posted:
11/18/2009 8:44:27 AM
If I have sex with a man who turns out to be a narrow minded sexist madonna/whore misogynist, how can it possibly be a problem that he showed me early who he was and what he was all about??
Once it probably wouldn't be a problem... people can learn from mistakes.... but after awhile those "first Date" sex partners start to add up....
Fcuking someone to see if they only want sex... is like giving people all your money to see if they're going to steal it...
It may not be a problem to you... but to a lot of potential partners it would be...
As for any potential relationships my whorishness (is that even a word) might have "killed" early, I consider it a blessing.
Yes, but just think how a better method of 'killing' a relationship might be more of a blessing....

Dumped/Back together advice ???
Posted:
11/17/2009 7:23:35 PM
1. Should a guy go back into a relationship after being dumped?
2. Is it valid to say that people tend to fall into there old habits. Breakup/cheat/get back together.
3. Once the trust is gone in a relationship, is it gone forever?
4. Is it possible to take a year or more to fall in love with someone?
1. Well, that's up to you. mY G/F and I were apart for over a year... We made it work, but it'sa lot of work and requires that you have a lot of communication... and you have accept a few compromises...
Also, it can be hard to deal with knowing your G/F has slept with other guy(s) while you were apart... it can lead to a lot of ugly thoughts....
2. This one depends on how much you want it to work and how much effort you put into NOT getting back into old habits... and how well you learn from your mistakes....
3. No... You can regain trust. But it won't happen overnight.... Time and communication and being OPEN. No getting upset over snooping or questions and so forth, there has to be expectations of such until things are more secure....
4. Yes.

Are there women/men who wait as long as 6 mos. before sex?
Posted:
11/17/2009 6:45:29 PM
Well since this is all about TIME. I can't help but wonder, how often are you talking about seeing said person. Once a week, three to five times a week, once a month?
I mean for me-If I am seeing someone three times a week, six months would be a long time to wait. HOWEVER, if I am only seeing this person once or twice a month, six months might not be long enough.
That's actually a very good point....
And that's not even taking into account the quality of those dates... are they just go for a coffee dates, or real chemistry building dates... ie long talks, dinner, dancing... really getting to know the person....

An old man was 89-years-old and he wanted to marry a 24 year old girl.
His son told him, "You can't marry a 24-year-old girl."
He said, "Why not?"
The son said, "If you marry a 24-year-old girl, you'll have to have sex with her and that could be fatal!"
The old man thought about it a moment, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well if she dies, she dies."

finding a girl who enjoys sex
Posted:
11/17/2009 2:55:08 PM
Hard to find any woman who wants to have sex period. All they want is friendship or to chat.
Then YOU are doing something wrong.... The women I've known WANT to have sex.... They have often been the aggressors in the bedroom because they enjoy sex....
I repeat:
If a woman is not enjoying sex with YOU, then YOU are doing something wrong...

Why would a guy you had fun with turn off?
Posted:

Like to know everything about a woman before entering into a relationship, including sex. Once I've experienced this, and all the other aspects of her personality and life, then I decide if she's right for me.
Do you honestly think expect most women will believe this? Like, I grant you, a few of the really, really stupid ones will.... but for the most part they know better....
Realistically, all you're hoping is that you'll get quick and easy sex and bail before a "relationship" even is on the horizon...
Like the guy who met the OP, too many men are just hitting up women for a fast fcuk and if it's not there right away they move on...

This is about him, and him only.
A few points to consider...
You are starting to encounter the age that things break down... both men and women... no point in worrying....it's like complaining about the rain.... doesn't do a thing to change it....
Older men are very much like older cars.... Hard to start, but run forever.... but need a a little TLC every now and then.... and sometimes you just don't get to your destination.... but you can always go tomorrow....
Older men are often like women... They need and appreciate foreplay....
It sounds to me like this guy is at least aware there could be a problem... I've seen a lot of threads where the woman is complaining he's not attracted to her because he has issues... or that the guy is in total denial....
A little TLC and a little encouragement makes a lot of difference....
And sometimes you may find that you plan things differently.... At the end of a long and stressful day, may not be the best time for sex.... but early mornings or middday he may have lot's more energy....

Why do people lie?
Posted:
11/17/2009 9:33:40 AM
They lie because it's the most effective approach...
How many men will get a woman to respond positively to "I just want to fcuk you, use you and then go brag to all my friends that I did you, and all the ways I did you...... "
as opposed to
" You are a really great woman and I'd love to have a relationship and get to know you before we get serious...."
How many men will get a FWB if they say "Look, you're good enough to fcuk, but you're really not worth it to me to even buy you a beer and I'm going to fcuk other women too and not use protection or tell you about it...but you'd better not fcuk anyone else....Oh yeah, My buddies and I are going to laugh at you behind your back when ever we have a beer together."
As opposed to....
"I really dig you, but I'm really not able to handle a relationship. So let's hang out together, and maybe we can still be physical. If another person enters our lives we will drop the benefits and our friendship will be still there and closer than ever... and if later on my situation improves, well, you and I, maybe...."
How many men will get anywhere with... "Look, I'm so drunk, I've already forgotten your name, but I'd really like to fcuk you, so if you give me your number, I'll be able to read your name and pretend I didn't forget it. And if my wife goes out next Friday, I'll call you and we can go fcuk after a few drinks"
As opposed to...
"Look, You're really a great person and I'd really like to get your phone number so we can gt together and see if the chemistry I'm feeling is really a sign that we should be together..."
Or how about...
"My Corvette/ Porsche is in the shop, so I'm driving a rental. Damn rental place was all out of ...."
As opposed to...
"It's the Lada over there, parked in the slowly expending oil puddle... No, it's not orange, that's rust..."
And finally...
"I'd tell you the truth, but I honestly don't think you're bright enough to see through this crap anyway...."
As opposed to...
"Really, it's the truth..."

finding a girl who enjoys sex
Posted:
11/17/2009 9:18:24 AM
She was a virgin till 21 when I met her.
Sorry buddy but you have no one else but yourself to blame then...
You can't even say she has bad habits in bed to 'unlearn'.... YOU were really the person who initiated her sexuality and if you didn't or couldn't do it right, then her issues are partly your fault... If she wasn't in the "mood" chances are, it was because she didn't enjoy it with you....
All women were virgins at one point....(so a woman being a virgin is no excuse) how they get from scared, nervous virgins to willing adventurous and loving women is very much due to the approach the man or men in her life take...
I've never met a woman who cannot be coached, nurtured and educated into being a good comfortable and confident lover...

Unfortunately, without a good father role model, the cycle will continue.... it's a slowly increasing problem....

So the woman goes and complains to you about the guy being an ass and you say ‘well didn’t you see the warning signs?’
Potential Red flags: Don't have kids/unprotected sex with him:
If....
1... His motorcycle/car/friends/dog/mother is more important than you
2... His job is more important than you. Men are supposed to like their job and love their wife, not the other way around...
3... If he does drugs recreationally or abusively or drinks to excess. (apart from the risk of birth defects)
4... If he hides his cell phone, takes calls privately or otherwise is hiding a part of his life.
5... If his Ex is still a big part of his life and they don't have kids.
6... You have been in a steady unbroken relationship for less than two years.
7... He doesn't want/like or tolerate kids.
8... He has a recent history of cheating or a lot of recent sex partners/broken relationships.
9... He says every one of his breakups was "her" fault.
10..He says everything that goes wrong was "someone else's fault".
11.. He has no job/low paying job or is still in school. Or has been working in the same job for less than a year or two. Or has a history of chronic unemployment.
12.. He has anger management issues.
13.. He's frequently missing for hours or days and has little or no explanation.
14.. He still lives at home. Or mom/Ex still does his laundry...
15.. He doesn't have a bank balance above $1000.
16.. He's controlling, violent, abusive, or telling you what to wear, cutting you off from friends,family...
17.. Misses time at work or blows off responsibilities due to booze,drugs,friends, partying... (Sure everyone does blow off something once in a while, but I mean makes a habit of it)
18.. Already has kids that he refuses to take resonsibility for (ie won't pay support)
19.. Is in jail, pending jail or has recently been in jail....
20.. Has no prospects....

Hooked on having a FWB?
Posted:
11/16/2009 8:54:43 PM
All my "friends" were exclusive, monogamous relationships that simply lacked romantic love. I wouldn't consider being in a relationship where they're sleeping around - that's just yucky and it's one thing when you think you've been sleeping with all their past partners, it's another when they continue to acquire them.
Sorry, but I'd be very very surprised if they were as monogamous as they claimed... One of the main reasons for men wanting a fwb is to allow them to play the field with little of no drama... and knowing that if their fwb found out the guy was banging other women would end the fwb, most wouldn't bother mentioning it.... a guy is not likely to drop his steady fwb before he sleeps with his new S/O, especially considering so many seem to advocate first date sex.... I can't see a guy telling his "fwb" anything until he KNOWS the new relationship is a definate go... and that includes sexually....
