We ended on pretty bad terms and it was all his doing.

I'm sure it was... I'm sure it was always their fault. :roll:

[Superriffic S*]

[Iceaxe]

Yup, its ALWAYS the mans fault :roflol:

[LJ]

Yup, its ALWAYS the mans fault :roflol:

You were on the right track until you added the ROFLOL guy at the end. :nod:

[accadacca]

I have had a few near misses. I just act like I didn't see them..... :lol8: How chicken shiz is that? :lol8:

[DirkHammergate]

I know everyone has Ex stories... so... lets hear em'!

I had an Ex dump me, ran into her like a year later, rolled her that night, didn't return her calls over the following two weeks, my pals call me principled. She was a pretty good *#*! but you know, you have to be principled...

[DirkHammergate]

I just act like I didn't see them..... :lol8: How chicken shiz is that? :lol8:

See HammerGate's post above....

[Sombeech]

Somehow I've left mutual feelings with all of my exes. At the time of break-up, I never knew if things might happen again.

[LJ]

Hard to believe at my advanced age (compared to you kids anyway, give or take Iceaxe) but I have always been the dumper and never the dumpee. I move around a bunch so don't run into the exs very often but they seem to love to send me pictures of their lovely wife and kids at Christmas with those form letters about how great their lifes are. I send a back a picture of me on a mountain top or travelling in Italy or hanging from a rope in some canyon - all of them with a big sh*t eating grin on my face. Things may have worked out better for them in the long run but I want them to know I ain't regretting my choices either! I haven't given up though - someday I'll meet the guy who can keep up with me!

Yeah.... much better to be the dumper then the dumpee. :kicknuts:

Always leave them wantin' more..... :2thumbs:

Oh yeah..... and I hate them frickin' Christmas form letters. I don't care that you found god and are no longer are a party animal..... what the hell do they think I liked them for in the first place? :ne_nau:

[LJ]

I don't know - maybe I'm just reading the writing on the wall and getting out while the goin' is good!

I'm working on a new guy now but he's not picking up on it. I think he's a little slow. :roll: Guess I need to start working it a little more obviously. :naughty:

[savanna3313]

Yeah.... much better to be the dumper then the dumpee. :kicknuts: Always leave them wantin' more..... :2thumbs:


Yep.....that's the problem with most men.......they always finish first :getiton: and leave you wantin' more........ :ne_nau:

:lol8:

[savanna3313]

I know everyone has Ex stories... so... lets hear em'!

How about divorcing your husband while you were both still living in New Orleans (this has been many years ago now) moving out to Salt Lake 8 yrs ago, and just recently finding out that your ex (whom you haven't seen since the divorce and basically thought he had moved back to his home state of Tennessee after the divorce) is now living in West Jordan with his new wife!!! :eek2: Incredibly small world.........

[Iceaxe]

Yep.....that's the problem with most men.......they always finish first :getiton: and leave you wantin' more........ :ne_nau:

Yeah.... blame it on the man..... like its our fault that you women take so damn long......

Us guys got it wired..... we try to finish with enough time left to grab anther beer before half-time is over :five:

We hate to miss the second half kick-off :haha:

[savanna3313]

Do you think that he has it "wired" if he grunts like a LITTLE GIRL in the heat of passion?!?!

Oh God no..... next thing ya know they are going to want to "communicate" and find out where the "relationship" is going.........

Heh, heh :haha: Been there, too, girlfriend :nod:
About a month ago, I met a guy on yahoo personals...seemed nice looking from his picture, smart (a requirement for me), clever, etc. Met in person and hit it off. He wasn't as good looking in person as he was in his picture (odd), and he had really crooked teeth :eek2: , which I'm sorry to say I had some trouble getting around. But, had similar senses of humor (MST3K, Austin Powers, etc.) and he was pretty interesting at first. Unfortunately, he was, by his own admission....shy. As my former boyfriend-turned-friend/roomate Darin said when I mentioned this to him: "That's cute....for about an hour." Indeed. :roll: Shy, I'm not and shy doesn't work for me on any level.

The end result: less than two weeks after we met, we came to the mutual decision to ditch the scene: he was too shy and inexperienced (read: really boring in bed) and I was probably too crude and bit too much of a live wire for him handle....oh well! :ne_nau: No awkward exchanges - just the complete dropping off of calls, voice mail and emails and a mutual sigh of relief.

The fun thing is that I was sharing this with my running partner, Wayne, on New Year's eve, the day after I was last with Mr. Shy Guy, during a 7 mile trail run. We [me and Wayne] had dated for about 6 weeks back in Sept-Nov, and while the sex was major :rockon: :2thumbs:, and he was smart, funny, into hiking and backpacking, it wasn't working out on other levels so we termed the romance but decided to continue to run together. Over the next 6 weeks, we started enjoying each other's company more and we would exchange the occasional flirty ennuendos via email and comments. I was sharing with him this latest experience, and that led to us reminescing about the great sex we had and how we really do have a lot in common and are currently enjoying each other's company more.

During the run, he invited me out for New Year's, to which I agreed. The fishnet stockings and platform heels I wore were a big hit :five: , and we got the new year off to an explosive start.....and have rekindled a relationship that is turning out to be quite exceptional now...although his spinster neighbor probably isn't thrilled about the thin walls :naughty: I sort of have Mr. Shy Guy to thank for that. Wayne is now busy rockin' my world on many different levels :rockit:

For my otherwise strong personality, I really prefer to remain on friendly or at least neutral terms with men I date, if it is possible; I've ended up with some real keepers (friends) this way. OTOH, I've also had my share of creepy clingon stalker-types that don't take their boot to the curb very gracefully and end up making a scene and trying to piss me off, usually by breaking out such fun misogynist terms like "frigid" or "slut", based, of course on whether I made the mistake of sleeping with them or not.

LJ, I hope your current guy doesn't go down this path! Maybe he's just being a bit cautious and doesn't want to scare you off with pig-like male behavior!

There is the chance that I may see Mr. Shy Guy and his huge bodybuilder butt (too much of a good thing = unappealing) at the gym, and if so, I'll be polite but otherwise probably avoid having any conversations with him - he's an example of someone I really don't have any desire to have as a friend, but I wish him no ill will.

AMEN to that, sister! :five:



Did it ever occur to you that the journey can be almost as much fun as the destination??? :naughty:
Absolutely! And if you can find a man who can walk the walk and who prefers a 1-2-hour journey down a seldom-walked path of a breathtaking canyon, taking his time to stop and explore the surroundings on the way to the waterfall destination, rather than the man who is only up for the 5-10 minute quick and predictable walk down the urban sidewalk to the drinking fountain, well...you got yourself a gem!

I done found myself one of them former types! :mrgreen:

About a month ago, I met a guy on yahoo personals...

whoah......this could turn into a whole new thread:

Worst experience from an online or personals dating service

I had just moved into town, and I think it was the personals in the Salt Lake Tribune where I came across someone that I thought could be interesting. I called the number and left a voice mail. It was a couple of days later, the phone rings and the operator says "I have a collect call from Greg, will you accept the charges?" I am thinking that the guy must be out of town and got my message, and was SO excited to talk with me that he had to call me collect. WRONG! :blxsuspicious: Dear Greg was calling me collect from PRISON. Yep, his home was located at point of the mountain in Draper. We won't go into the details of why he was a resident there, suffice to say that he was. Kinda put a damper on my venture into the Salt Lake scene. :lol8:

Oh, now... you can't tell a half story about a guy calling you from prison and not say why he was there... Lets hear it! And... how on EARTH did you get him off the phone? :popcorn:

S*

He was in prison for passing bad checks (or so he said) and I got him off the phone by simply hanging up. :nod: And yes, he called again and again especially after someone gave him some quarters and he didn't have to call collect anymore. No lie....I ended up having to change my phone number. Lesson learned - never give out your phone number! :nono:

The hard time I have w/ an ex is my wife's exfiance. He has been a star on a soap opera for many years and my kids keep telling my friends that he should have been their father. A few year's back People Magazine named him one of the ten sexiest men in the country. How do you live up to that?

[Superriffic S*]

...

[david staub]

thank you for understanding my pain.

His real name is Peter Reckell and he plays Bo Brady on "Days of our Lives." He and my wife went to high school together. He went to the Boston Conservatory of Music and my wife went to Mercy College of Detroit. They made sure they spent a lot of time together during college. Fortunately, I met her after she dumped him. But he still came to our wedding reception and kept hitting on my wife. I don't think he believed that we were for real.

Don't worry Dave, my wife wants to f*$k him too, all women do.

[david staub]

my kids wish she would have. That way they could be calling him Daddy!

[DirkHammergate]

He's probably a jerkoff... plus just tell them if he was a real actor he wouldn't be doing soaps, dude probably did gay porn to get himself that far.

Ouch!

First time I heard that crap come from my kids mouth I probably would have ripped their lips off...... but I'm probably meaner then you. :frustrated:

Next we would have had a serious talk about being proud of who you are. Second part of the talk would have revolved around your parents can guide you and give you values.... but in the end you are what you make of yourself and who you know don't mean a hill of beans. I'd probably also point out that many kids of movie stars end up becoming nothing but a waste of good air.

But the biggest help is if your wife backs you up and pointed out she picked you over him because you were the better man. :feelgood:

[david staub]

this has been great therapy. Thank you.

I must admit that my wife and I had a good laugh when we read an interview with him and he lied about his age. How vain is that?

um......you're not supposed to lie about your age? :ne_nau: I actually tell people I am older than I really am so they reply with "Damn you look good for your age!" :roflol:

Bottom line: Your wife picked YOU darlin'......not the soap geek.....

[Iceaxe]

he still came to our wedding reception and kept hitting on my wife.

I have to admit.... I find the part about hitting on the bride at her own wedding rather amusing.

"Hey babe, how about after you finishing cutting the cake we go knock off a piece?" -NO CLASS......

Just tell your kids every great performer has a warm up band and you appreciate mr. movie star getting things warmed up for the main attraction. :2thumbs:

[canyonphile]

year's back People Magazine named him one of the ten sexiest men in the country. How do you live up to that?
Oh...by being a loving, considerate and kind husband. And a dad who is truly engaged in raising children.

Looks and "sex appeal" (which, of course, is what People is basing its winner on) only goes so far. As I've heard from many a man, re beautiful women (and same applies to men): "For every supermodel out there, there is a man who had/has to put up with her $hit." Guys all dream about bagging a Claudia Shiffer or Angelina Jolie...would probably be fun for a bit, and then the novelty might wear off when you realize how high-maintence and naggy she is. Not to suggest that these particular women are, but I think you know what I mean by this. Hey, I'll be the first to admit that I'd do Brad Pitt in a second if I had the chance! :naughty: But, I don't think I'd want him around much after that; I doubt he'd be into doing the 50-mile backpacking trips in the Big Ditch that really rock my world.

Ditto that with Mr. Soap Opera star. She did break up with him for a reason, no? And he's obviously a class act if he's still hitting on her at your wedding :roll:

OK - here's an ex story. I'm currently carpooling with a female friend on our way north for vacation. Her ex-boyfriend from years ago called yesterday and said he was going to be where we are staying tonight in an unnamed town we will call Schmocatello Schmidaho, anyway, he's getting married next week and is tracking down his exes to have one last night with each of them "for old times sake". So, here I am dog sitting in the Schmeconolodge while being sworn to secrecy so his fiancee won't find out. I've had two exes call me before their weddings saying they wouldn't get married to the other chick if they still had a chance with me but never the let's cheat on my fiancee and oh by the way you aren't the only one I'm doing this with. So guys, getting married that scary? Or is this guy just a drip?

Creepy clingon stalker-types are the worst . I'm getting better at seeing them coming these days and I can try to steer away.

I think current guy is a little too into himself to have a relationship that goes beyond the "tequila" relationship we seem to have now. That's OK though - I keep hearing that there are some hot single canyoneering types out there and canyon season is coming and I'm practicing my rappeling technique and have a cute new helmet......

[Iceaxe]

So guys, getting married that scary? Or is this guy just a drip?

AAAaaaaa..... I'm more amazed that the women are actually going along with this plan. The guy must be a soap opera star :haha:

I'm trying to figure out what these guy's game plan is to last a lifetime with their new spouse. Call me old fashion but that union seems destined to fail, once I had my last girlfriend who turned into my wife in bed I became completely faithful (until one of her roomates hopped in for a few hours with us together, that's just college)...

[Iceaxe]

Don't hate the player..... hate the game. :cool2:

Here's one for you LJ......how about a creepy cling-on type that you're trying to "nicely" distance yourself from, and he starts visiting your parents behind your back, talking about the relationship, how much he loves you, etc...etc...etc. I have no clue this is going on until one day my Mom asks me when <insert name here> and I are going to set a wedding date!

Huh????? My parents of course, think he's the greatest. :hail2thechief:
I knew what a total jackass he really was. I just told my Dad that the guy was really pressuring me to have sex and I didn't want to since I planned to wait until I met the man I was going to marry. I didn't have anymore trouble from <insert name here> :five:

I used to think that as well...but the two specifically that I had to deal with over the past 5 years came across as normal. It wasn't until I had to have the "Dear John" talk with them that they morphed into raging freakshows. Ick. I keep thinking I can detect that sort of behavior, but I think some of these dudes are really good at hiding it. However, there are definitely signs that I look for now....like any guy who bad-mouths all his ex's.

Ah....yeah, I've seen those types as well. Sometimes that works and you can continue with a relationship that can provide some superficial gratification until someone more meaningful comes along :thumb:

Good luck to ya and enjoy him while he lasts! :naughty:

tottally agree with dick
to me happens twice and both time the guys 1 was getting married because the girl was dating was pregnant
2 he was getting married because the wife was rich as hell
i think if a guy is getting married because he is in love he will never cross his mind to have sex with somebody else before getting married
and these 2 guys definetly i do not have a good opinion of them
