Can you see out the windows, or have you resorted to concrete?

Here's a good example I like to use. A friend of mine has a girlfriend who always complains he spends too much on everything. A new laptop, a new recurve bow, TV, and even things like food, drink, cooking items, tools. Every single line out of her mouth "It's too expensive." Even if you're talking about a dollar more on pasta AND she admits it's a better brand, it's still too expensive.

Then she drags us to Pier 1 where she proceeds to buy the entire fucking store. Not ONE THING she buys is actually useful, just decoration or novelty; like an easter egg tree. WOW I'm glad you have fiscal sense. That 40 dollar made in China easter egg tree that is only a good decoration for two weeks out of the year is a wise fucking investment, isn't it!

Never, not for a single second, did she ever consider anything in that store too expensive to prohibit owning it. She did have to reserve herself from buying things due to lack of money, but she never said "It's too expensive."

Now that pisses me off. Fuck Pier 1.

Maybe she's stocking up for a post-divorce yard sale.

Yes, like the seemingly never-ending parade of supportive, nurturing females who've dumped me over the years.

What is this "lawn" you speak of?

It probably doesn't help that you surf porn forums all day either.

(Just kidding)

I'm surprised that's happened to you what with the warm heartfelt people skills you've developed.

(Still kidding...just not as much.)

Tell me about it. An old flame of mine was so insecure and jealous, if she saw me just talking to another girl, she would get upset.

What ended our relationship in the end, is that for some reason she got it into her head that I was messing around with her best friend behind her back. There was nothing I could do to persuade her otherwise, even though it was her friend who helped us get together in the first place.

I still think about her sometimes, and I've always regretted how things ended, because I could have handled things better. Sadly I was young and inexperienced back then; if I found myself in that situation today, I would be much more understanding and considerate.

LOL!!! Whilst I generally agree with this assessment, I wish a certain someone from my past had received the memo before she ripped my heart out, trampled all over it, and almost made me kill myself over her.

No matter, I'm not bitter. She taught me two harsh, but valuable life lessons; and for better or worse, I would not be the person I am today if it wasn't for her.

Honestly Rott, men are the worst offenders on this.

Not meaning you per se because I don't know you well enough,
but most men are looking for a woman that is Mommy V2.

I just put your two posts together because basically you're getting the same answer.
Men are equally to blame because they do the same exact thing.

Again, I'm not knocking men but I haven't seen one debate here
that couldn't be used against the opposite gender as well.

"Mrs. Uterus, do have any other medical problems?"

No, I don't have any medical problems.

"And are you taking any medications?"

Yes, I'm taking Amrix ER, Clonazepam, Lovastatin, and Atenolol.

I have this same conversation almost every day

The nagging!

If I want to get in bed fast (how fast depends on the situation

and slip of my socks on the floor, she's nagging that I make a mess.

When she's leting some stuff behind. Underwear, robes etc. it's not that biggie and I need to stop complaining.

*sigh* women *sigh*

Ow, and the reverse psychology. If I don't feel like doing something, she/they always come up with something that makes me do it (no presents involved :P). How can they do that every single time, even when I'm on to her??
