i'm the opposite of a packrat. in fact, if i'm not using it today, it goes in the trash. it's really gotten me into trouble a number of times with my husband. he says i've thrown away half of his net worth and that he's spent half his life digging through our trashcans trying to retrieve his stuff. i can't tell you how many times whatever it is is under coffee grounds. every time he can't find something now, i panic. :P
Egads that's me. I just bot some paint roller extentions to paint the house when I drive to the house and Dear Wife is oblivously throwing roller extentions in the trash.
Gad I spend so much time digging around in the garbage cans after DW straightens up the house.

oh and another one took me to a very upscale restaurant..at first i was impressed.. I mentioned that they had a very nice lobster bisque .. well we sat down ..first we got a nice bottle of wine.and then he said...lets order hor dourves .. well he ordered: crab dip, scallops, mussels and another (I dont recall what it was) TONS of food.. I told him oh gosh I cant eat all this..!! then he ordered the lobster bisque. I said this is too much..~ .. then to the entree.. I told him.. there is plenty of food here..I dont want an entree.. He then ordered us both an entree.. it was UNREAL the table was loaded with food.. He then asked for a box to take home the leftovers. I thought good lord.. but it gets better .. he scraped all the food.. into several boxes AND then he scraped MY PLATE into a box for himself! Then the check came and it turned out he had free dinners there b/c they had messed up an order he had there previously.. he only wanted to give the waitress a $5 tip!! Needless to say.. that was my first and only date with him as well.. gawd.

My husband cleaned the garage and found a bunch of tools he had lost and rebought. Now he has at least 3 of everything and I think the paint roller count is up to 5.

I have almost every tool a fool could need. But I can't find em. Which led me to the profound revelation, if ya can't find it, ya don't really have it.

Good God, I hate to ask where you are meeting these guys. Sad thing is I'm sure the guys could tell us just as many horror stories.
.. I suppose but they're idiots.. I never in my wildest dreams thought that men were such morons.. Oh I have a few even worse stories.. these are the G rated ones :P
..I should.. these are just two of many.. Im not dating anyone now.. I needed a breather... for awhile I was dating a LOT.. but I've had my fill for awhile.. as I said Mr. Right doesnt exist.. I wasnt looking for perfect just semi-normal..:P

Haven't followed the story in adults, but in college was amazed that some of the men who I knew to be the good guys, smart, clear thinking full of good ideas, good looking, ( engineers, mountian climbers) well spoke talented multi-lingual sensitive and cultured, were shunned by women.
And yet they flocked to me. It never made any sense.

..you know for me it's not looks.. it's not wealth.. it's intelligence and personality.. good conversationalists..and being self-assured.. intelligence is a powerful aphodesiac for women..well at least for me.. :P

Well now it's clear why you are having problems. Get with the program, be normal, and superficial. Watch lots of TV to tell you what's important in your tv centered life.
