Kinda reminds me of Capt John Sheridan and Ambassador Delenn from Babylon 5, different roles and expertise ( Naval Officer/ Diplomat) but they loved and respected each other plus complemented each other which is why B5 was able to survive all the crap in Season 3 and 4.

15. They Say You’re “Bad With Money”

According to social worker Jane Seskin, LCSW, it’s important not to let a partner make you feel like you’re incapable of handling your own finances. If they offer to be the one in charge of your bank account, it could be a sign of impending economic abuse and/or a way to limit your mobility so you can’t leave the relationship.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I have yet to meet any female (except ones much older than me) that are capable of handling their finances.

Every last penny is blown before they get it on “stuff” (crap).

Savings? - What is that?
401k? - Why?
Retirement? - It’s so far off

Sure, they look hot in those $120 jeans and that $200 hair, and those $200 heels for now.

I still stand by the biblical definition. That will never change because God does not change.

I’ve been all over Europe, and my grandpa is from north east Hungary, and other side is Norway. It’s really no better there, unless you go really far east as in Ukraine etc.

Many men in the US and Canada who have troubles finding a decent women will often end up looking at other cultures for reasons you described, but that is putting a band-aid on the problem.

:) that’s not saying they have not had their down times. Prayer, time, patience and maturity has made it work.

But it’s the mutual respect and love that has kept them together.

Plus they are also very good friends, the best of friends to each other.

I know but I deal with realism and perception which it is what it is, I agree what your saying. I am meeting females in ertain parts of Germany and Romania, its different and to my liking, but best of luck to you.

I dated a guy once who was always late for our dates. I find that incredibly RUDE to begin with, but turns out he had OCD and couldn’t leave his house without UNPLUGGING every appliance, lamp, radio, TV, etc. and going through elaborate rituals ‘checking’ things. Also, no newspaper ever left his home, but he had them neatly stacked and bundled by DATE in his basement!

He’d also only take me to ONE restaurant and always order the exact same thing. If we ate at his house, it was always steamed shrimp and rice. I don’t know how he was able to even make it through a meal at my house, but he really tried, I guess.

It took me a while, but I dodged that particular bullet! I was sympathetic, but I could not see living that way, myself, or enabling that behavior/mental illness any further.

Surprisingly, he was very successful in his career. Maybe he let his guard down, thinking I would accept this behavior? Who knows?

To: SheepWhisperer; Reeses
Every single thing you have pointed out @ NPDs/BPDs/sociopaths is correct. I'm surprised no one questioned your assertion these personality-types are based on self-loathing.

It is true.

Years ago, when I was recovering from a relationship with such, wkpedia listed about 9 or 10 bullet points to be a full-blown NPD, and they are remarkably similar to the leftist mindset! That's why I pulled Reeses in...not sure if you were tongue in cheek there, if so, it's truer than you think!

I've not heard of the 'laughing no' test, could you steer me toward more info?

PS - read my profile, I think you'll enjoy it.

Remember, if they don’t find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

Based on this list, if your “partner” is Tony Soprano it’s time to move on.
