A woman does this, run her arse off.

A man that tolerates that crap for very long, he loses what it means to be a man.

It's best to sort out the sex stuff from the get-go, that way nobody is surprised.

To make matters worse, if you decide to actually "man up" and be that chili cheese dog she wants you to be, then, suddenly, she seems not to really want the weiner that much anymore. She's tired, she's stressed, she has a headache, she has to get up in the morning. You try to be supportive and BE that perfect chili dog, until you catch her red handed eating some other mustard and ketchup hot dog and think WTF!? You made me go through all that work to become a chili cheese dog just to do this?
I think you knew me and my first wife.

She literally fricked around on me with a guy who might as well have been the "me" she griped about wanting to be different.

Well then, she should have found a hot dog stand that sold chili dogs that she wanted and bought that wiener instead. This is about knowing what you want, knowing what you're getting, and not getting something you know is one way and expecting it, post commitment (especially after an extensive "dating" period) to completely change itself into something different.

While on the outside, chili and cheese may seem like just condiments, they're really the only way that Frank identifies himself.

Aren't you the one that is unfortunate looking but claimed he has a dime because of confidence?

Notice that I'm not talking about the toilet seat, or clipping toenails. I'm talking about real identifying qualifiers. Think a harley guy who's wife makes him sell his bike after they're married. Or a big sports fan who gives up his season tickets because she doesn't like going to the games anymore, when she went to every game with him when they were married. I'm talking about altering more than just hygiene habits or doing chores. Those things always require give and take whenever two or more people are living together. I am talking about women who really want to change their man's personality and hobbies, the things that make him who he is.


Then we're in agreement then. I said a few posts ago that the big things take compromise.

Yep, but she's not the first woman I ever dated. I am in a very happy relationship now, but it wasn't always that way for me.

I married well above my "grade".

And, it was purely cause of the fact that I just went after it.

When I quit attracting attractive females and I feel my stock is on any sort of decline, I'll lock one up.

This has been a sorta evolution in my thinking last several years. I want a kid but I'm not ready. I have some things to fix first. Also don't see a need to marry a girl to have a child with her either.

You have to remember that females evaluate men slightly differently than you evaluate them.

They aren't evaluating you purely in terms of looks. Of course, they need to find you attractive but they are MOST attracted to you when you are an appreciating asset.

They don't want to buy penny stocks, but they are kind of in to that well established and flashy mid-cap. If you've become the slow growth stock, you may have waited too long. Some already growing fast growth stock with potential will scoop up the ones you thought you'd "lock up".

Any numbnuts can knock a hide up.

You hook up with a woman that'll take that deal and she'll be hit or miss as a mother.

Not to mention, you can't really say "I want a kid" and then just knock some broad up.

Sure, there will be a kid out there with your DNA, but that doesn't really meet the standard of "wanting" a kid.

For the life of me, I've never understood the women and toilet seat thing. Guys have to sit some of the time, too, yet I have never once fell arse backwards into the terlet. I look. If the seat is up, and I need it down, I put it down. How hard is that?

Bravo, that's a great way to put it,

Men are purchasing products. They want to test drive the product and they want it to always work exactly like it did during the trail and exactly like it says on the box forever.

Women are purchasing an asset. They pick that asset up and decide how much they want to invest in it to start. That asset probably won't pay off right away. In fact, they'll probably have to invest a lot more time, effort, and capital into it before it starts giving a return, but that return will pay for itself many times over in the long run.

It's just another way that men and women approach potential mates differently.

AGreed.

Nothing on the planet, not marriage, not living together, changes your life more than having a child.

You need to be a grown-arse man to get in front of that.
When you aren't, it's a cluster.
