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.
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.
en 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.

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.

.. this could be the problem.. but most of the men I dated were truly intelligent men.. but inept.. superficial in other ways.. saw me as a divorcee/widow and well.. like the one that told me ... that he missed the feel of a woman's underarm.. (I was like did I just hear what I thought I heard him say? :P )
Yeah I think if I knew then what I know now I would have done things differently.
I was joking about they flocked to me.
But yes FF I think a lot of the girls might wonder what they were thinking. The young men I hung with became the men that hold their society together as older men, the ones other come to seeking seasoned hard earned advice.
And the young boys that attracted many of the girls ..... I'll leave it at that.

Doing okay, thanks. Just got back from a week in Los Angeles, and my home's looking pretty good to me this weekend.
I have a son I could offer you who's single, and smart, and isn't a loon, although he does have his eccentricities. But then, he's 27, and that would seem a little creepy, I guess.
I would ask how you're doing, but after reading the thread, it looks as if you're having a frustrating time. Give yourself a big old hug, and I'll try to pretend I had something to do with it ...
