Hi. I'm trying to think of another description to put here. Any ideas? I'll try again at 420.

I think that...


... I have pretty much figured out that there are some nice guys out there, it’s just so true that you have to “kiss a bunch of frogs” before you find a prince. I think that what we need to do, is to figure out tell-tale signs of the frogs. We could just send Guy over to check them out for us, but he can’t cover that much territory.

So, how do we know if we are kissing a frog or a prince? That is my next task. For the time being, I will only go out with a guy once before I vote frog or prince. Yes, it can be done. If we just stop looking at the surface qualities, of men or women for that matter, and look at the person inside, we can do it. As a nurse, I have excellent observational skills which will come in handy.

Notice I said I will VOTE after one date, not stop dating them. How would I know if I was wrong or right if I just said, “RIIBBBBBIT” and went on to the next one? I am going to try to come up with a list of questions that have very telling answers. I just came up with that idea so I don’t have any questions yet but I am going to come up with a few this weekend.

OK, now I have to ask you all for your opinion on something. Barring another continuance, Vex’s court date is sometime within the next two weeks. (In Georgia, they don’t tell you the date of the trial, they just give you a two week window in which you must be an hour’s call from court.) He is charged with assault, domestic violence, interfering with a 911 call and whatever they call it when you break the conditions of a restraining order. The restraining order has been incorporated into the divorce and I will never see him outside of a courtroom again. Even if there was no restraining order in place, I am not really afraid of him because he only hits the women that he is with, so I am safe. Now, considering that, what should I say when and if someone asks me what penalty I think he should get?

Since he and I will never be in the same room having a heated discussion again, I will ever get entangled in a situation that ends with, “I wasn’t AIMING at your head!!!!” His targets are exclusively women with whom he is involved. That will never be me again. And to be brutally honest (Feelings are what they are, not good or bad, they just are.), I get a sadistic thrill imaging Vex smacking Hexaba good a couple times. I’m not proud of that, but I would be a liar to deny it and after careful consideration, I decided to say it anyway.

Do I say I think he should go to jail? He’s blown his chance at anger management as a sentence by re-offending. But jail? It’s hard to think about someone that you know so well in jail. The good side of Vex, which does exist, is not the type of person who should sit in jail. But the angry and cruel side of him exists as well. That guy should get life. You know, I think I just figured it out. I should interact with the last guy I saw.

OK, so, now for something completely different. My father is on his way as I type this. I have to clean my house and I don’t want to. It’s not that bad but I don’t want to do anything. I wish I had the cash to hire a maid. My birthday isn’t until next month and my kid did clean the house for Mother’s Day. You know, it really isn’t THAT bad, and I don’t feel well anyway....

But that's what happens when you can't come clean to your woman and find some acceptable way to be happy until she's back in action again. It's amazing what women will do if you talk to them. LOL

There you go again guy, acting all sensitive and smart. I wouldn’t have accused you of being the perfect man, I would have accused you of being a woman in disguise. Although Purp and I were not “out of action” at the time, we were ready, willing and able(the men were just horny and didn’t want to go to all the trouble of making love). They wanted to “get a nut”. That shows you what they think of an intimate relationship. And you are right, it IS amazing what a woman will do if you talk to them. I believe I addressed that a few months ago. If there is one husband anywhere who hasn't tried asking your wife for the things you only think about, try it now. You jackass, I bet she'd be into it. And if she won't do it, refer her ass to me. You have to SPEAK to HER.

Whenever I asked Vex what was wrong, he assured me that nothing was wrong. Never once did he come to me and say what I could do differently. That's because it wasn't me, he just met someone else . He could have spoken to me before his affairs to let me know that he was having some negative feelings. If he would have come to me and told me things in a kind way, I would have done anything. The only time I ever heard complaints was during fights and then he would deny that he meant any of it later. When we got married, we promised each other that if we ever felt an attraction to someone else, we would tell the other. I did. He didn’t.

About 15 years ago, I met a man that I found very attractive. He was obviously interested in me and I really did find him to be quite charming. I was feeling as though I could possibly stray so I did what I had promised. I told my husband what was happening. The look of pain in my husband’s eyes was too much for me to bear. When I saw that look, I immediately lost the feelings for the other guy and loved my husband more than ever. But what did he do in response to my confession? Well, her name is Noreen. That was Montomery Wards.

Rather than work on our marriage, he screwed another co-worker. (If you have a wife that works at Circuit City, beware. There is a male slut working there and he is going through the women, one at a time.

We got into a heated debate when she said that "all men cheat" and I said that I never had.

Well, don’t be too hard on her. I have no reason whatsoever to think she is wrong except for a few very kind men that I have had the pleasure to meet and know. If I was just going on the men that I was married to, I would have to say that she is right, I have never had to luck to be married to a man who didn’t cheat. Ever. But, I must say, I am glad to have known you. Guys like you are all I have when I think to myself, “Meg, there ARE guys out there that WON’T cheat on you!” My entire study is based on that presumption. If I didn't believe that, I wouldn't bother.

I'd like to think it's my generation, but I think I remember the "shut up, I want action" guy being about my age, right?

Yeah, but he was a mutant. I have been speaking with a lot of men, believe it or not, I really am studying them. And I have found that the younger guys can handle a conversation. The other day I had a conversation with a guy my age. When I said certain things, he did what Vex would do, he twisted it into something completely different. I think the conversation went something like this:

Me: I get the feeling that you have something else to do and if you do, go right ahead, I don’t mind.
He: Well, I had plans already! It isn’t my fault that I have something to do tonight, I can’t get out of it now...what do you want me to do?
Me: I didn’t say it was a bad thing, I just said that I thought you had something else to do and I don’t mind...just go do it, I really don’t mind.

Not only didn't I mind, I wanted him out of my face anyway. If I was angry about it, I would have said, "Listen, you've made me angry." Duh. So many men my age want to assume you are bitching when you speak to them. Vex did it often. I would make a comment and he would respond angrily. The comment is what it is. I am not trying to bitch, I am just making an observation. Those defense mechanisms are some dreadful little things.

Younger men, on the other hand, will take you at your word. They don’t seem to assume we are arguing and if they do, they attempt to clear it up first by saying something like “What did you mean by that?” So few arguments occur when a man just listens...not jump to conclusions.

I grew up watching my mom and her friends do the dating thing. I got to see/hear them get excited over new guys they met and get upset when some of the guys would do inconsiderate and stupid things.

Ah! that’s it! Not only were you RAISED by a woman, it was the woman that you loved more than any other and you watched her “teach” you how to make her happy and how to make her sad. That explains everything, no, you are NOT a woman, just one who was raised to love one vey much. Cool.

I have to assume that many guys just don't realize the impact.

To assume that they don’t “realize” the impact is to assume that they have even considered the woman’s feelings. THAT is not the case. These guys are simply selfish and either didn’t THINK about the woman at all, or didn’t care when something better came along. And I think there’s a bit of...“I’ll tell her I will call so I can get the hell out of here.” at times as well.

Now that I think about it, I have had to remind a friend or two to do that. You know, the old "didn't you promise to call xxxx? I'll wait for you, make the call." On the other hand, I've also had friends that said they had to call xxxx and one of the other guys pipes up with some p***y-whipped jokes and makes an ass of himself.

First of all, ask those guys why they didn’t call the girls and then let me know what they said. Now, what the heck do you mean, pussy-whipped because they have a call to make? If they had no women at all, the guys would be just as stupid. You guys can’t win when it comes to the other guys. And men wonder why we think they are jerks, hell, THEY think they're jerks. Now, to show you the difference between men and women, if another woman said that they had to call a guy, we would all sit quietly listening and then assist her in dissecting every word he said.

Dave walks up to her and says "Debra, I have never done this before, but I either gotta lay you or Jack off..."and she says "Can you just jack off cause I feel like shit."

LOLOLOL, that was too funny for this early in the morning, and I don’t have a hangover.

Oh, and one last thing. This blog entry appeared twice. Or am I seeing double?

No, sometimes that happens, like the big blank space thing. I get every comment as an email twice. At first I thought people were just sending them twice, then I figured out that the server sucks at times. I never know what special little screw up I am going to have to deal with. So far, everything seems fine today...but I am just now posting it...so we shall see.

Ciao
