The Difference Between Guys and Girls Who Sleep Around

[misombra]

i don't really care whether or not people are whores.

White Knight VS He-Man Woman Hater Grudge Match?

I'd pay per view that.

[misombra]

you make the popcorn.

[Mish]

surely you must have missed my exchanges with CocoChanel or where I defended Indi (even though we don't see eye-to-eye)? Or perhaps you missed the instances where I was equally harsh, if not harsher, to guys? So spare me your bandwagon 'Neo-hater' mantra.

I must have missed that

I hate to disprove your psychoanalysis of me but I'm currently talking to an amazing girl with whom I'm taking things slow. We have an undeniable chemistry which I credit all my knowledge and prior experiences with girls for.

That's good to hear. Let's see you put your knowledge and experience into building something healthy and meaningful with a woman for a change. If you want to prove something, prove it by sustaining something good, that's the real challenge.

Relationships aren't about proving anything or purposely challenging yourself. Some last and some don't. They are about happiness and companionship.

You can't control who you fall in love with, otherwise the divorce rate would be 0 and everyone would be content. The numbers tell you about 1 out of every 4 or 5 couples are happy, they don't lie.

Bottom line, if you have to 'work' at it, it's already over to begin with. You'll either go your seperate ways or lump yourself into the stats as another couple that 'stay together' for whatever the reason.

How many times have you been married, Primo? What's the duration of your longest relationship?

Just wondering if you are full of it, or actually speaking from some experience?

Exactly

So many guys try to delude themselves and "prove their worth" by chasing random skirts, add some notches to their belt when all they really need is that ^

[bluesummer]

Mish, I'd buy your white knight crap anyday.

[Mish]

You can't control who you fall in love with

You control who you encounter and choose to walk away from if you are not compatible.

[IndiReloaded]

You control who you encounter and choose to walk away from if you are not compatible.

We aren't responsible for our thoughts, or even our feelings (sometimes). But we are responsible for acts of will.

You give me faith, Mish.

or maybe most guys haven't found a decent girl to have a long-term relationship with but at the same time, don't want to deprive themselves of sex. I'm not going to live like a monk if I'm single just b/c some white knight takes issue with sex outside of a relationship.

translation: "I'm trying to bolster my authority on the subject in a roundabout way by questioning your relationship experience"

hey, I have a question for you: how many times have you been to marriage counseling, Indi?

[Sanctuary]

Exactly

I get happiness and companionship from my friends.

I think we're all looking for happiness and companionship but I think the difference between the 'good' guys and the 'bad' guys is that the 'bad' guys don't settle for just anything that comes their way.

If I have plenty of options, then why should I settle and 'try to sustain something good' when I can just find something better right around the corner?

This doesn't mean I'll always be searching though.

[IndiReloaded]

Neo, I know your answer is Zero re: marriage. I wasn't asking you.

Oh wait, now I remember. In your world experience doesn't count for anything--only *potential*.
