Men can be JERKS ChrisJane: My new philosophy on dating. Let no emotions/feelings surface. Become a user instead of the usee.
Beware of GREAT guys. Would you believe the GREAT guy I thought I had, had the nerve to expect to move in with me, refuse to make any house payments/utilitites because the house was mine and his being there didn't add to the cost of the utilities. He makes his own money, and doesn't even think grocery money would be a nice offer! Do you know how many times I've heard lets have a cookout, I'll give you money to buy more stuff this week. I've fed his 6 family members and their dogs for the last time. No, he never gave the $$$ to buy more groceries either.
I haven't gotten myself out of picking the low life mooching male species yet. SUCKER needs to be tatooed on my forehead.
Can we please start July over again. This has been a crappy month!
Re:Men can be JERKS picadilly: Mooch! In our defence, there are alot of guys that aren't as cheap as that guy but there is enough of them to make the rest of us look bad.
*HUGz* CJ, you'll find someone worthy of you yet!
Sending my best wishes to you. ;)
Re:Men can be JERKS LKN4ME: I'm sorry your having a bad month. I hope it gets better for you.
A friend of mine gave me a very good piece of advise about a month ago:
Grow a backbone. And fight for what you believe in. Don't be afraid to make someone mad, they will get over it. And if they don't, are they really someone you want in your life?
I've been putting this philosphy to work the past month and not only do I feel better about myself, I'm actually getting guys asking me out for drinks again. Even though they know I'm married and trying to work things out with my husband. It's all in friendship though. Sometime it'd be nice to pretend for just a little while that it's not. Just reaffirms that saying that someone will still want you even though your divorced or have gone through a bad relationship.
Do what makes you happy. Next time, if a guy wants to cook out: Get the money Before going to the grocery store! ;D
And what the F**k, move in and not pay for his own sorry butt. What? Him being there DOES add to the utilities. Did he not ever plan on using the toilet or taking a shower or washing his clothes? That all takes water and electricity. Or maybe watching TV? I'm sure you don't watch TV all the time, you do other things. Well maybe he'd be watching TV while your cooking dinner??? Not to mention that someone has to buy the Toilet Paper he wipes his butt with. Does he think that it just magically appears when he puts out his hand and says "TP" ? Or the shampoo and soap? Sorry, just makes me want to hit him upside the head and I don't even know him!
If you want a tattoo, I saw one a few years back that I would love to add to my collection.
A girl had it on her chest and it was a 3-D ice cube (the perfectly square block kind - like a rubiks cube - okay so now you know how OLD I am!) with a heart sitting inside of it. It was very detailed and a really really cool "ice blue" color.
Cold Hearted. Yeah, would love to have that one. Hum......got the itch to get another one now. I swear they put something in the ink that addicting! And you wouldn't have to worry about explaining it. It says it all for itself.
And if you ever had to tell a guy to get off his lazy butt and support himself, you know how you get called names? Well, just pull down your shirt a bit and show him just how right he is!
Hope you got a little laugh and at least feel a bit better!
Have a Great Day!
;D :D ;D :) :D ;D
Re:Men can be JERKS ChrisJane: LKN4ME ;D ;D ;D that put a smile on my face. I do like that tatoo idea though... ;) If I chicken out on the tatoo, it would still make a great decal for my 4x4 window!
Picadlilly--I won't put all men in the JERK category. I'm sure there is a NICE guy nearby somewhere.
But till then my guard is up.
Re:Men can be JERKS Shorelinedad: Hey,
That was not a great guy! ;-)
I'm in a new relationship with a wonderful woman right now (2 months) and we look at each other in disbelief. I never knew a woman in my life to be supportive, open to spontaneous fun, non-critical, and even love the Blues! And she says, " you want to do things with me, you want to talk, to ME!" We're in the middle of taking things real slow and fending off the questions from our kids because we've both been separated (me) or divorced(her) for almost a year and our exes both stepped out on us with other people and had them in the kids lives immediately so we're kinda gun-shy on that end of things!
Good luck you're in my thoughts......this coming from someone who never thought there was a match out there....
