I learned all of these things and more. I learned that women want instant everything. Instant gratification and instant relationships. I learned I can't read minds and that women can change their minds at a whims notice. I learned that women can be the most pure inherent evil on this planet and that for scorn or whimsy will do the most rotten unexpected bitter crap imaginable. I learned solitude and single living because I won't settle nor take responsibility for others actions or decisions. Why do I have to be responsible for others? Why do I have to be tolerant of so many who lay blame at my feet for things I had nothing to do with. Wasn't there. It happened to YOU before we met. Kindof tired of the finger pointing and the blame game. You say you learn from experience. But you actually learn from dilusional expectations because you claim your expectations in the next grievance. And that makes no sense. I guess I really don't understand.

I had to thank each of my ex's for the lessons they taught me about men and their mindset and myself and my mindset. Some lessons were so painful, I thought I would never see the light of day again, but I did, showing my endurance. Every painful lesson in life is needed, though we do not feel that at the time. I would not wish to go back to the way I was before those lessons for anything in the world.bigsmile

But don't get me wrong folks. Just as you have all admitted you seem to have always picked the wrong one or picked a holes or the crazy ones (which in some cases admittedly is an insult to the crazy people- not the mentally challenged) I too seem to have the gift for picking the anatomically incorrect person. (butt should be on top of shoulders, head should be between right and left thigh). I seem to end up with the woman who wants to be with me, and prop me up and tell me what I want to hear until she leaves me for the next big thing on her way up the ladder of the food and security chain. And in this circumstance you have no clue to her alterior motives until you get a dear john letter or come home to find her just gone. She's such a great actress that none of her freinds or family had any clues or inklings to her intentions. Its worse than lying. And I'm sick of it. I do not trust women because of it. And I've changed my life because of it. What kind of human waste leads someone on like that?

1st ex - don't date foreign exchange students, they will eventually move back to their home country and leave you sad and alone.

2nd ex - don't date her, even though her friend who you were originally dating said she approves, in fact, insists you do it because you're a better match.

3rd ex - if she starts lying to you about who's she's talking to, and where she is, who's she's hanging out with, and doesn't want to talk to you that much anymore, she's seeing someone else.

4th ex - if she starts asking you for money...in small sums at first, then incrementally larger, but doesn't talk to you much when not asking you for money, or not in need of money from you, drop her like she's scalding.

I guess you can add to "4th ex" that if she keeps breaking up with you and getting back with you, she's probably seeing someone else on the side.

I learned that you should listen to your gut and if something doesn't seem right and feels a little off, it probably is. I also learned dating someone who just got out of a long term relationship or one in which they deeply cared about that other person, may be a good idea not to get involved, or wait for quite some time.

that I'm not all that lovable and hard to live with. I guess it IS hard to live with a woman that can tell when you're lying...

I learned that they all told me nice things in the beginning some include:

~I love you and I don't know what I'd do without you in my life
~I can't wait to be with you,hold you,kiss you
~I promise I'll never leave you
~You mean the world to me,I'm so lucky I've got someone like you
~I want to be your first and your one and only (yes I'm a virgin)
Finally the biggest one of all that has been told to me...by them.

~You treat me really great and I love that very much but you don't deserve me in fact "Your too good for me" Huh? WTF!!!

After all I did in making them happy and feelin' loved and most of all not cheating on them cuz in that respect I know that's not who I am...I'm not a cheater! Never will be! They have the right to tell me that I'm too good for them!!!! Why did they stay with me then,I know why.They just wanted to push me to the end for as long as they could and rip my heart out and tell me it's over!!! Well **** them!!! I'm tired of giving it my all in a realationship only to be heartbroken in the end for what?

NOTHING!!!

P.S - I apologize to everyone who may have been offended by my language.I was angry and pissed off at how they've treated me and to all of you I'm Sorry!!! I'm a nice guy just trying to get my point across.Thank You!!!
