dude..you complain too much..try thinking something positive.

all of us has been thru the same things,hell,i gave my ex everything Except my daughter And i went dead broke and came back from Nothing to owning my own business and raising her till she went on her own.



life IS out there,its just what You make of it.

just sayin......

That's the funny thing about pointing fingers at people whose opinions for which you don't particularly care-- you often end up being every bit as negative in defense of your opinions, especially when they can articulate theirs without getting personal and you can't.


-Kerry O.

I didn't get personal at all except for suggesting getting a prenup rather than being cynical and really that's not getting personal that was giving a helpful suggestion...

You say above, "All of us have been through the same things"?

Really? So, when was the last time you were in Intensive Care for a cerebral hemmorhage while trying to rebuild your life and business after a messy divorce and the death of a parent?

It's pretty easy to be critical of someone whose life you know nothing about over the Internet. And you tell ME I'm being negative??

-Kerry O.

We were talking about "heartbreak" and we have all experienced it... Did the heartbreak do that to you? It was her fault? I didn't know we were bringing medical issues into this... I'm sorry you went through that and felt I should have known it...

Is this not the "all men are dogs" thread?

Oh and you have no idea what I've been through so perhaps you should practice what you preach.. Just sayin!

And the 'crochety old person' remark?

Besides, exactly where did I solicit your advice and exactly what are your credentials for giving same?

-Kerry O.

That's right. You don't know.


-Kerry O.

It was a suggestion and you don't have to ask, in a forum you'll get opinion, advice, suggestions, etc.. Mine was a suggestion... Think of the movie grouchy old men.. I didn't want to leave out women so made it the crotchety part (which my Grams always said), that was not for you.. Sorry you took it personally...

Well let's see. If it wasn't personal, then you stand by your advice that men, in general, rather than being cynical, should play it smart and get a pre-nup so they don't get taken for a lot of money like you alluded to when you suggested (with no knowledge of the facts)that that's happened to me?

Really?

Somehow, in a Men Are Dogs thread, I can't see that gaining much traction with the women.


-Kerry O.

Anyone that is worried should get a prenup not just men.. There are women with money as well... I stand by all that I said... Again, if you thought I was getting personal I'm sorry you took it that way I was not...

<-----likes to sniff..and pee on trees

Here is _exactly_ what you said:



I think it's perfectly obvious you were NOT referring to men in general, you were referring to ME specifically, and were just taking a cheap shot.

Besides, it's perfectly silly advice to give once the horse is already out of the barn, not to mention that a man who even broaches the subject of pre-nup is going to viewed by women with suspicion and mistrust.

-Kerry O.

Cheap shot? Not even close.. I made a comment, suggestion... Geesh get over it!!!! You're right that is how I said it.... I had forgotten my wording and didn't go back to read it.. Feel better? Would you like to continue beating the now DEAD horse??? Do you feel better? I hope so... glad I stuck around to help out...

That, and the fact that people are creatures of habit...people who find their earliest relationships to be fundamentally wrong on some level, for example they are attracted to skinny guys in bands that turn out to be ********, should try to break those patterns. I have a problem with women who try to be overly controlling and who don't fight fair. So I came to the conclusion that if I am attracted to them, they are probably not for me. Kind of like staying away from bars if yo are a recovering alcoholic.
Good luck.

I'm trying to fathom the goat thing, considering that goats are hard-headed pains in the *****, much as I love 'em. Attitude and doing their own thing is what they're all about.

I think that's I get along so well with mine!

Ouch.

But I'd have to disagree. I think it's because animals don't truly bs you. Their motives are clear and out there and easily read.

'THEY' are probably DOING THIS,,for the SAME REASONS you felt to GENERALIZE ALL OF "THEM"..

IF you feel this way? That ALL WOMEN treat YOU like a dog.
Then I would say honestly, YOU need to FIND better women!

Considering that, with the exception of mother nature and some accidents, we are all responsible at some level as to what happens to us, we should be considering why the women might perceive us as doggish first and work our way outward to blame others.

Or at least that is what I have seen works best.

hahahaha
A real dog :-)
Here boy..

you have a Major attitude problem..try taking some deep breathing,and attend anger management please.
i think you owe indian -princess an apology too.
this is a public forum,not your way or no way.

you sound like an intelligent man,and im sure you can articulate better,or interact better with us members than you have thus far.

having said My opinion,i will now answer your retort...err,reply.

one of the times i almost died/nde,i was in the hospital for some form of asian flu the doctors couldnt even treat..it pretty much wasted my whole body to nothing,and they thought i was gonna die.

i ended up in an isolated room with needles everywhere and absolutley nothing else,for weeks.

during this entire time,my daughter knew nothing,my then ex wife ( we had just broken up )never told her nothing,and,i will dare say that the pain of that was as great as the pain you speak of.

that was just one of the times i could relate to you..there were more.
so,please dont think that you are the only one whos suffered.

dont waste Time dwelling on how bad things were..go Forwards,and make Good things happen.

life is short,live as long as you can and be Happy.
