Girlfriend going thru menopause and her daughter going thru puberty at the same time. Help! Seems nothing I do is good enough! Any advice?
Between the upcoming wedding and this, sounds like you should 'swing to the other side' and stay away from women all together :grin:
just be glad there isn't PTSD mixed up in there as well...the garage sounds like your only sanctuary...
I don't know about swinging to the other side, Joy....... Yup, hanging out in the garage with my dog and cat sounds like the place to be. Plenty of projects and racing will be here soon! And......if I treat the car(s) well I can usually be expected to be rewarded for my efforts.....and....they don't talk back........might run me over, tho.....:laugh:
AHHHHHH...You poor bastard...Welcome to the club.Been a 4 year member so far..I feel your pain. Have one leaving the time and another just entering..Its GOD's way of punishing men. And, to think they think they are the only ones who go through menopause. I have to live with it too..
Well, I knew something was up. She said she wasn't feeling well for Easter but lied and had her HS boyfriend that she hadn't seen in 30 yrs stay over for 3 days...she claims she is totally smitten with him. So.now after 4 yrs I'm toast, the burned variety. She just told me she loved me 2 weeks ago...... I give up.......heading for the garage and track.
Remember the acronym PUSH...Pray Until Something Happens,if all else fails spend the night with your other girls: Your CARS,they look good,wear their age well,don't talk back unless you give them some gas,and they never react if you give them some gas...you can look at their face,their sides,top,bottom or back,and they never stare at you and snap at you:"WHAT ARE YOU LOOKIN' AT!!!! I guess somewhere around about 6:30-8:00,that's when God made the car...he knew something about these women,and gave man something else to play with besides "the box that the baby came in..." Take care.Jay B.Britt,Jr.
Remember the quote that one of ours uses - "Next time I'll just find a woman that already hates me and buy her a house."uzzled: Sorry for the angst, but better now than after "I do" Hang in there Robert
Sorry to hear of your troubles but it sounds like yours will soon be the old boyfriends. Just be cool and let her move on. Life's too short to deal with that kind of heartache. Make sure you pack all her things neatly and have him pick them up or even better ship them to his place! Wow a place of you own now that might be nice!
Just hang in there. If you believe God will straighten it out. I've been where you are at and it's not easy but believe me it will get better with time. Patience is a hard thing to deal with. As someonelse said, if she is fooling around get away as fast as you can. Been there also! Prayer for you and her also. Hang in there buddy! Tim:beer
Thanks for the support. Everyone tells me to move on, not call, etc. But what ever happened to a guy standing up for what he wants or loves?
Sometimes you have to draw the line. The way I see it she drew it for you by what she did. She has no respect for you if she would do that. Danie'
Not to hurt you more, but what about after you're married and her ( fill in the blank ) shows up for a 3 day reunion in YOUR house or on YOUR credit card at the local B&B ? And what about the 14 year old - she is getting a first hand lesson from Mom that this kind of behavior is OK- can you imagine trying to lay down the law when she wants her greasy little BF that knows all the answers better than you to spend the weekend or to move in 'cause HIS parents wised up?- look buddy, we have ALL been there to some point- what would you tell your best friend?? Don't open yourself up for more pain- if you continue you will always be second best -( at best ). You deserve better - move her and her daughter along to the old Flame and keep your eyes open- there's always one with a better original body and a sweet running heart of gold.:Smarty:
