What do you think...
Posted: 8/3/2008 2:11:57 PM
Ive done it both ways. Rebounded out of a long marriage and into another serious relationship....which turned out to be a total train wreck....but not because of the rebounding.

After that ended, I've been alone now for six years. I've done some *looking* and some casual dating in that time period.....but nothing steady at all.

Can't say what was better or worse. I think it more depends on the person and the state of mind. Sometimes being alone and working on one's self and healing is a good thing. But being alone has it's definite draw backs too.

Much good luck to you

Would you date someone who is separated?

That's your experience with one person & it's completely unfair to generalize & assume like that.


I completely agree.

Like previous posters said, separated is not final, even if the individual feels that there is no chance of reconcilliation.


DIVORCED is not final either! Divorced does not mean that the chapter is closed at all.

It depends on the person and the situation. I have had guys tell me that they are *separated*.....and then I come to find out they are still living in the same house together. They consider sleeping in separated bedrooms because the marriage has broken down.....being separated.

There are people that separate.....have no chance of reconciliation....and there ARE good reasons.

*No good* can come from ANY kind of relationship...single, separated or divorced. And I have had *no good* come from men in all three categories.

I would say a better explanation of why that happens is because people lie......are not telling the whole story.....are being evasive......or a host of other reasons.

Why do Babes dig ugly guys?

Wow...so many great responses here.

I am sitting here shaking my head at this shallow and superficial question. Talk about showing true colors.

My answer to your questions is.........dude, you just don't get it. It's not ALL about LOOKS! DUH! I have dated some very handsome men, some had SUBSTANCE and some definitely did not. Some had amazing personalities and some did not. But that is the case with anyone that I have dated. Some very, very attractive people open their mouths and in 30 seconds you know they are not a person you want to know anymore about.

It's about compatibility, how a person makes you feel inside and out, the way they treat you, and the content of the kind of person that they are.

There's an old cliche'.........Never judge a book by it's cover. I'm not sure who gets the credit for that statement but a wiser statement does not exist. Of course, physical attraction has to exist to some extent, but that would all depend on what any one person finds attractive.

There are more important deal-breakers for me then a guy being drop-dead gorgeous. And something else to consider.....many very attractive people are completely arrogant and conceited.......and it's ALL about them. It's their world and the rest of us just live in it. Well, no thanks.

Your attitude is very shallow.......it may need an adjusting.

Oh and .....what the hell is balb?????

Why do guys always do this to me? Does anyone else have this problem?...
Posted: 7/13/2008 8:35:05 PM

the trick is to think like a man... then play them at their own game... they hate it.

No, the problem is that women view it AS A GAME, when it's not. Quit treating it like a game, and it will be a whole lot less confusing.


Oh it's a game alright. The second grade kind. Adults on the other hand .........communicate. True adults can stand up and say what needs to be said. People that play modern-day Houdini's are clearly not acting like adults.


I just maintain my confidence in "what goes around, comes around"....and it never fails to come true.

I was thinking the same thing. Who makes someone sleep in a car?

As far as the *disappearing act*, I wish I had an actual count as to how many times this has happened to me. It's especially astouding after those actions contradict their words.... in a big way!

That has definitely changed how I feel about men, how much I trust, if at all....and to what degree I let them get close to me. It makes you very jaded about dating at all....and it's very sad that we have to feel like we have to protect ourselves that way. Caused solely by virtue of the fact that some men are so incredibly cowardly that they feel as if they cannot man-up and just say that their feelings hae changed and why.....to give closure to the situation.

I am sorry that it has happned to you as well. Good luck.

Phone numbers
Posted: 7/3/2008 11:41:57 PM
Been there, done that. Way too many times. BIG warning signs here! If he is not forthcoming with his phone number, won't call you, won't tell you his last name, etc......he is hiding something.

Aside from that, what kind of man invites himself to stay at your home? That is something left to be considered wayyyyyy down the line.....after you have met and he has coughed up with some personal information.

Bless your son's heart for looking out for Mom.

I caught a women I've been sleeping with inserting my used condom inside her
Posted: 6/26/2008 12:35:56 AM
So here's my question:
What would you have done?
Also, I'm looking into what legal grounds I have but I can't get a straight answer, any advice?
And No I don't want to be a father to her **stard kid and I won't pay her anything.

Nothing much could be done at that point. If she's way fertile, she could still have gotten pregnant that way.

It wouldn't be *her* **stard kid.....it would be yours. And if paternity tests prove you to be the father....the law will make you pay whether you want to or not.

Maybe you should choose your booty calls more carefully.
