4. Hi NWC!
I really don't belong in this thread, because I am currently single, but wish I weren't. I had a hook up last night with an old *uck buddy and as usual it was awesome. I have nothing in common with this guy except totally mind blowing sex. If he was more intellectually my type (he's a conservative) it could be a great relationship. But I'm still looking..........

Anyway, hello to you NWC!

Q

7. Hiya, Q!
:hi: :loveya: Great to see you! And glad your evening was so good. :evilgrin: I have had similar experiences, but if I say too much here, I might get myself in a lot of trouble. :rofl: Even if he's not relationship material, mind-blowing sex will do nicely. ;)

I hope you find the right guy soon. You deserve to be happy! :D :pals:

8. I don't know if I want to be single again...
Edited on Sun Jan-07-07 10:27 AM by driver8
but being single for a couple of nights would be nice.

I would be on a plane to Vermont so fast...(my high school crush lives there.). She told me at our reunion that if I wasn't married, she would have taken me back to Vermont with her!

*Sigh*...

9. ...um...hello?...is this thing on?......
:blush: ...uh, hi.

I love being married, and I adore my wife. But ever since I got married, other women seem to find me attractive. Where were they when I was single? I was a pretty clueless single guy; my wife would often say, when we were dating, "Can't you tell when a lady is hitting on you?". I guess I couldn't. :dunce:

I dunno. Now that I'm married, it just seems more obvious to me when a woman is hitting on me.

13. That is the same with me.
I was back at my high school reunion (without my wife) and it was unbelievable. As I mentioned in my previous post, my high school crush was ready to take me back to Vermont with her!

When I was single women would tell me, "You're a 'good catch'...I can't believe you're single.'".

29. I know all about the stupid shit.
I've had to fight to be allowed to take my sick child to a doctor, but I've also been yelled at for doing too much reading, or not eating the leftovers fast enough. The STBE is a strong, intelligent and interesting man but I don't love him and I have not loved him for years.

If my life goes to hell, it's going to be because I fucked up, not because some man fucked up and I went along with it like the scared mouse I've been all these years. :hug: Hugs, NWC!

55. I'm Sorry
Mrs. SPK is a good person too. A good mother. Has many good qualities.

But when something is missing, it's missing! Yes indeed.

And when it never changes, and you've tried to work that out over and over, and you seek outside help for that and it still isn't there.

Then what do you have to work with? (you being me)

I'm thinking the answer is there isn't anything left to work with.

But the jury is still out I suppose? Not really, but that's the official word.

Not because there's anything wrong with DU; but I've really slacked off on my book reading, and I have several that I bought that I haven't gotten to yet. (Man, this place is addictive!)
