Another reason to dump this guy.

[truthbetold]

How did I ever get involved with a homophobic racist who thinks taking children to see the Passion of the Christ would be a fine Sunday activity? Is that before or after they are traumatized for life?
I'm disgusted with myself for staying so long.
I should invite him to go out with me...and my gay brother. I think that would take care of the problem once and for all.

[Redneck Socialist]

1. Lordy...

dump his ass.

[Demonaut]

2. ??

who are you talking about?

[EstimatedProphet]

3. This is a silly question

But why haven't you tossed him earlier? there's a lot of good Progressive guys out there. Don't tie yourself to a creep. It sucks.

[truthbetold]

4. Yep.

Can't wait for college. I'm bound to find a like minded hippie there!

[Demonaut]

5. Hey, dump him after he punches you a few times, lose some teeth first

people who date opposites are in major denial about themselves, obviously you like him if you're asking DU why you should dump him

[truthbetold]

6. You misread my post.

I didn't ask them why I should dump him.
I pointed out the reasons why I am. But I, unlike my Republican counterparts, thought to give him a shot and see if he really was such a bad guy under it all.
Surprise, he is.
That's the last time I attempt to find the good in everybody.

[Demonaut]

7. did you??

I mean you found something attractive about him? Looks, money, car?

[truthbetold]

8. He wrote poetry.

Which I thought was something remarkable for a man to do.

[Demonaut]

10. Wow, poetry................seriously what else?

Rednecks write poetry, racists write poetry........what are you leaving out? I know that liberal minds are easy targets for conservatives, We are more likely to trust, thus be taken advantage of. How long did you date him? and how many dates did it take to get intimate? AND please dont think I'm being lurid, I dont know you nor your real name, I'm curious about the predatory nature of this guy, men will date women just or only for sex, opinions and independent thinking just get in the way.

[truthbetold]

11. Yeah, that's another thing.

We've been involved for a couple months, but he's been weary of calling me his "girlfriend" because he was engaged and it didn't work out.
But mind you, he doesn't want me seeing other people. So how does that work?
I suppose I'm one of those people who felt sympathetic toward him and wanting to help mend his heart, so to speak. Also, I have an incredible knack for getting involved with assholes.
This time was no exception.

[Demonaut]

12. Dont you have friends who will slap you up side your head

for being gullible?, A rebound??????????????? Hey, want to go out now you're single, lol, as optimists we're bound to repeat mistakes we know are likely to end in failure, we just dont seem to have alot of faith in ourselves.............BTY................how old are you?

[truthbetold]

13. My friends...

Tend to be so self absorbed that I'm lucky to get a hello before they launch into their latest tale of sorrow.
This might shock you (or it might not) but I'm going to be 18 this month.
And yes, he's older, 21 to be exact. So even though our relationship was illegal, I genuinely thought he was an okay guy for a while. At least, he was at first. And it wasn't about sex, he's a devout Catholic (which I suppose explains the homophobia) and a virgin at that. Probably because he can't treat girls well enough to get laid.
Ho hum.

[asthmaticeog]

14. Good thing you're ditching him, then.

Happy birthday. Think of dumping this twit as your adulthood present to yourself - and welcome to DU!

(by the way - points awarded for the Anti-Flag sig line.)

[truthbetold]

18. Anti-Flag are my heros.

Great to see someone else recognize them! Thanks for the warm welcome and early birthday wishes too!

[asthmaticeog]

Oh, don't get me started...

...on political punk! I came up in the '80s, when you practically weren't allowed to buy cheap gear without promising to write a song called "I Hate Reagan." Discovering Jello Biafra probably saved my fucking hide!

[truthbetold]

26. I can appreciate...

The days of Social Distortion and the Sex Pistols. I would have really thrived in the 80s, due to my rebellious streak.

[Demonaut]

15. Young enough for plenty of more mistakes

but I hope you dont turn bitter, But some advice(that no one ever follows) go with your gut instinct, body language says a lot about a person, hey this guy might not be so bad in a few years, just needs time.

[truthbetold]

17. Thanks for your support.

I'm afraid I'm already a bit bitter because I've been through so many losers, but at least I'm trying to break out of the pattern.
18 is a good age for a fresh start.

[Demonaut]

20. Then wait for someone worthwhile, and DONT date anyone over 24

you seem more mature yet at first I thought you were raised in Europe.

[truthbetold]

21. LOL

I take that as a compliment. Europeans have always seemed to lead us in maturity. If only more American teenagers could be as open minded. But I have hope for my generation...we seem to be more liberal leaning.

[Demonaut]

22. Theres HOPE!

Can I guess some things about you? just curious if I've got an idea what you're like

[truthbetold]

23. Go ahead.

In the words of Pat Benetar, hit me with your best shot.

[Demonaut]

24. OK here goes

You read alot, you've short dark hair, dont own a car, brown eyes, third generation imigrant family, your friend seek you out for advice, to cry on your shoulder, parents are still together, autumn is your favorite season, you have a dog or you parents do. first time I've done this so its a little messy, You love eighties music...lol

[truthbetold]

25. Not half bad.

Here we go, you hit some...

1. I read a TON. Michael Moore, Al Franken, the best works liberal writers have to offer. I've also been known to like the classics and mystery novels as well.

2. I have shoulder length black hair, dyed. It's naturally dark brown. But it's been blonde, purple, red...pick a color.

3. I own a car. I practically live in it, heh.

4. Green eyes. With a hint of brown in the center. You were close.

5. Third generation, that I'm not certain of. I think it's way more than that.

6. True, my friends always seek me out for that stuff.

7. Parents together for 26 years, give me hope not all men are horrible.

8. I actually like summer best, but can appreciate autumn.

9. And yes, my dog is the greatest. Dogs are much more friendlier than people. Haha.

From a few posts, you're pretty intuitive. Then again, us leftists seem to be more sensitive, no?

[Demonaut]

27. true, got the no car from you profile, tried cheating

alot of New Yorkers dont have cars, missed the Buffalo part though, see what cheating gets me...lol, one thing..read this as a child and took it to heart, In reading lies knowledge, In knowledge lies power.

[truthbetold]

28. Hey!

"Cheaters never prosper" remember that saying? :P
And no truer quote has ever been spoken.
Mind telling me anything about yourself, because I do not have your intuitive abilities.

[Demonaut]

33. I'm older,

late thirties,but I look and "act" younger, single but happy, have a dog, yup I'm a bit sensitive and gullible, last girlfriend I had had very liberal parents(she was 25)but she seems a little like the guy your dumping, sorry but I always seem to find the "broken wing" type, thats why I seemed a little harsh at first, she's the type to go for assholes which is why we didnt work out.....anyway born in the UK but I've no accent now, lost it due to the attention I got in high school, dark hair, hazel eyes..love german cars and automatic watches, have a darkroom and shoot a nikon FM.......spend way too much time on DU....lol

[Demonaut]

34. not materialistic but appreciate workmanship

and old world craftmanship

[truthbetold]

35. It's a myth.

The whole "women don't go for nice guys" thing isn't true- it's just that it's hard to find them. And after being burned time and time again, it takes a toll on your self-esteem so you automatically tend to seek out those who reinforce your negative beliefs in yourself.
I think accents are great, makes people seem more intelligent (not that you need help there). I thought you were probably born in a different country, just got the impression.
I love taking pictures, but the only developing I get done is at work. I'm pretty good with the film machine, heh.
Thanks for satisfying my curiousity.

[Demonaut]

36. Sorry, but I got that saying wrong

In reading lies knowledge, in knowledge lies wisdom, in wisdom lies power............its a while since I last dug that up from my childhhood

[Demonaut]

16. But not on your time I mean..........

[truthbetold]

19. Not planning on it.

He doesn't deserve my time anymore. He had his chance.

[Plaid Adder]

29. But is it GOOD poetry?

Cause that makes all the difference.

C ya,

The Plaid Adder

[truthbetold]

30. VERY good poetry.

With you know, actual emotion and deep thought.
Which is why I had some hope.

[Plaid Adder]

31. Ah well, I can see how you would be misled.

You sure he wrote it himself?

Alas,

The Plaid Adder

[truthbetold]

32. Based on the grammatical errors...

Probably.
It was the only bad thing about his work.

[chimpy the poopthrower]

9. Nothing wrong with that.

You gave yourself time to get to know him.

Now you know him.
