We see things the same. I won't lie, when you get to that point as I did.....it probably isn't as fair to to the other person. No matter how hard you put yourself out there, you will always hold back a little in reserve. This may sound like a bad thing to say, but I'm at a point in my life where I could walk away and not really be that affected by it. So it comes back around to what you originally said, it's like the relationship is one sided in your favor. And for some odd reason, this is what keeps them pursuing you. I guess it's akin to the good girls like bad boys adage. I'm not a bad guy persona by any measure, but I guess the way I come across gives off a vibe that I could take it or leave it even though I consider myself thoughtful and considerate. And I may be way off base.....but in my experience women want to feel like they are the ones being pursued....but when it comes down to it....they prefer the thrill of the chase more when they are are the ones doing the chasing! But then again, just my perspective. I was always kind of neutral until my divorce. Then I changed. When I started dating again, I went wild. I guess I sowed my oats a second time, but then I was older and had no inhibitions. My male neighbors used to tell me that my place was nicknamed Motel 6 for the longest time. I just politely asked them to not let things like that slip out now when my wife is around. ![]()

I've been paid in soap for YEARS. Even used my youngest son taking a bath in a metal tub for the graphic for a baby soap when I did the website production/maintenance for a local soap maker.

It's my obligation to my self to not settle on anything. I either get what I want or I'll have nothing until I can have it. Literally everything in my life revolves around this. I won't spend my time, money or efforts on anything that isn't what I actually want. Of course I have to be realistic in my goals, but once I've made up my mind, that's it. When I was dating I used the 60 day max trial as my way of seeing if I could really maintain interest in a counterpart. If I don't think about a woman when she's not around, I should cut the relationship off and continue the hunt! I had to pull a lot of weeds before I found a flower lol

When the current girlfriend and I just started dating a close friend of mine was over at my place. My buddy, the girlfriend and I were on my deck having a drink and a smoke when a mutual friend calls my buddy. Not thinking anything of it, my friend puts his phone on speaker and lets the guy know he's at my house and he's on speaker phone. Without hesitation, the guy on the other end of the line says, "What slut does he have over there tonight? Does she look good?" ![]() ![]() |

I keep forgetting you come in and out of here in a very ninja-like fashion and then drop the seldom, short reply of wisdom. It almost embarrasses me that you have read some of the things that you have in this thread.

To that end, cmyx6go I've highlighted certain words that stood out to me above in his reply, with particular emphasis on the one word I made a little larger. The implications, I believe, are clear. ![]() |

![]() I kind of enjoy lurking in the shadows and popping in every now and then to remind you I'm here.

We are back together. Things were tense for a few days and we didn't speak much. We sat down one night and talked about it. I saw her point, she saw mine. No clue if she is still reading. The way I see it is that I am who I am, she is with me because she loves/appreciates me, same on this end. I'm no different on here than I am in real life so if she is still reading, she already knows. She is a good woman, I'd be hard pressed to find another like her.

Update: Things are going well.
![]() Making myself less available worked. We're talking about moving in with each other in the future. Only bad thing is that she's attractive. I'm not the jealous type, but I've been burned before, so that's always in the back of my mind. But I can't control that, so I try not to think about it. |

![]() The attractive bit can be a double edged sword. The only thing that will matter in this aspect is that whether or not she is loyal to you. If she is, that makes her even more attractive as far as I'm concerned. Having a woman that men are attracted to, yet is loyal to you is some "king of the world" type shit. Congrats my man! ![]() |
