At what point does a man who has had multiple divorces think to himself, “hey maybe it’s me?”
On Free Republic, the answer is NEVER.
““hey maybe it’s me?”
Unfortunately not many-and the same is true of women-everyone in a city seems to belong to a self-help or support group-my guy gets separation anxiety if he spends more than 48 hrs out here in BFE at my place, away from his support group, and pouts because I won’t move to the city to be closer to him-well, duh! He’s been in more short-term marriages and shack-ups than I’d like, too...
If the young guys are into that stuff, I can see why young women aren’t thrilled-not to mention that they have not been taught how to relate to and get along with a man in a relationship. I’m not young, I’m experienced in pleasing my man in a long marriage-and I still find that stuff eye-rolling annoying...
I made it clear that I’m not a city person and that self help support groups are just places to affirm your ego and navel gaze-my professional opinion as a case manager. Sooner or later he needs to get real-I work and am friends with some real cowboys who don’t need to do any group mental masturbation-he calls them redneck and crude-I call them real guys. My guy has been around too many snowflakes and city dilettantes, obviously...
Marriage is supposed to be a two way street. Due to arrogant know-it-all women, the pool that men have to choose from has shriveled down to a roadside puddle.
Why would I subject myself to marriage with today's “modern” woman? It makes little sense for several reasons, IMO.
You're no longer worth it. (not you personally)
Point taken.
